"The band really wanted to try something different. They were already really big in Canada and ripping it up. They wanted to get into a dark storytelling and heavier sound. In a house in New Orleans, they delivered that dream. These songs are all about fear, determination, and coming to grips with reality.
Three stars of the game:
Johnny Fay drumming on “So Hard Done By” all the instrumentation is a little weird on this one, but John is bringing some really interesting approach to the percussion in a way that has you thinking about the piece as a strange trip from the beginning
Rob Baker ripping that guitar on “Fire in The Hole”. It’s like the most violent guitar I’ve heard from such a beautiful player. You can get caught speeding listening to this driving
Gord Downie singing and lyrics from beginning to end. This man captivates my soul. I think he is just one of the best writers of all time. I never felt more connected to a poet than him. I don’t know why. He’s funny, deep, caring, insightful. He writes about things others don’t, about his country, about real people in situations you don’t think about. He brings you into these worlds where you can understand the feelings of a sex worker or someone stranded at sea.
I hope you liked it and I hope you explore more. I would really suggest “Fully Completely” or “Trouble in The Henhouse” next." - Nick
