Thanks for the link, Dana. I always enjoy checking out the press' perspective and this one had a little more depth and breadth of understanding than the typical "Canadian rockers really jam" arcticles we often see.

Thanks for the link. Not a that bad of an atricle. Jioios banner made me hungry for some of their pizza.

From the article - what do you think this means?
"Noting a 12-song CD he mixed for Maxim magazine, Downie says..."

Maxim seems to have latched onto the Hip over the past few years. They gave glowing reviews of both Music@Work and IBE, and a couple years back they listed Live Between Us as an "essential road trip album".

I agree with Scott that the writer has a better grip on what The Hip are all about than most others. I love the last qoute of the article:

"But if you know the material.... and then get it ready for the studio, and you work around the clock, all looking at each other in the same room, expressing that song, I think in the middle part of a long career you can do things right as you go in the studio."
