I really don't believe in the validity of this comment. It seems to be held by about half of the people on this board. I think that Bob Rock will enhance what The Hip have brought to the recording studio. I believe he will make the new CD more accessable and radio friendly to the average listener. I mean, wouldn't the band like to increase its fan base and CD sales. Bob Rock has a history of working with popular bands that have fallen into a slump. He has a knack for reviving their popularity and increasing their radio airplay.
I also believe that my comment and others like Cpt. Trip's are just biased opinions. The real proof will be what I stated earlier.....CD sales and radio airplay. Bob Rock will be considered a success or failure based on these figures.
