a return to form...
Maybe since Fully Completely. This is the best Hip album since Phanton Power. If you've lost interest in The Hip over the last couple releases, you'll relish this return to form.


another great cd from the tragically hip
i bought this cd for my husband who's a big fan of this canadian band and he can't stop listening to it!
thanks.


I love the Tragically Hip
I love the hip!. I would give this a CD five stars if there was a way to give Fully Completely, Day for Night, and Trouble at the Henhouse six stars.


I love The Hip, but...
I worked at a record shop and stuck the tape (yes, I said tape) in and it blew me away. Let me start by saying that I have been a Tragically Hip fan since 1989 when I first heard Up to Here. They had/have such a cool feel and groove, that it was and still is difficult to put into words what makes them so great. I have liked/loved every album they have put out, but at the same time don't expect them to "do the same album" every time. This being said, I don't quite understand all of the accolades that World Container is getting. I don't know if it is too pop oriented for me, but for some reason it is my least favorite Hip album to date. I still like it - I don't think I could ever not like a Tragically Hip album. It just hasn't illicited the same feeling of "wow, this is cool" that I normally get when listening to any Hip release. I'm going to keep listening with the hope that something will click and I'll leave another, more glowing review. Great band - not a great album.


Continuing to blow my mind
Songs like "The Lonely End of the Rink" really get you pumped up but have emotional untertones if you ever stop headbanging and take a listen to the lyrics. The Hip blends intricacy, energy, and emotion into World Container. Gordon Downie's poetic fervor never ceases to amaze me. Fun tunes like "In View" and "The Drop Off" keep you going through the slower quieter tunes in between. My favorite parts are the syncopated lyrical rhythms of "Family Band" and the sheer energy of "The Lonely End of the Rink. " A great addition to your Hip collection.
