The Tragically Hip - Phantom Power

Label: Universal
Year: 1998
Genre: Alt Rock
Recommending Person: Tim Sisk

The only Alt Rock band from Canada that I really have previously paid attention to was Our Lady Peace. 

The Tragically Hip seem to always play the House of Blues once a year, I know this only because I Curl and all the Canadians go to the concert.

None of the songs really grab me, it seems to be of the era, almost exclusively. The only stand out was the first track, I'm saying that a lot, Poets. It has minimal intro that allow the first verse to really stick and it transfers into a nice beat for the first chorus which slowly builds and changes for the rest of the song.
