Im sure nobody wants any band to copy the AC/DC formula of album making. Is the production too much, maybe for some ears and not for others, I really like this album for what it is. Not to say I love what Rock has done but whats done is done, this is the album and thats the way it is, take it for what it is.
If they decide to go "back to basics" on an album in 2 years time and it blows everyone away with raw rocking power, this album wont seem so bad will it, it will be just another album in the stream of time, lets enjoy it and then move on to the next one, whatever may come.
I think Mick put it nicely..

I have a great idea when anyone is looking for some of that raw or referred to here as not as polished or over produced stuff just put in one of their older albums :roll: The great thing is we as Hip fans have the option god knows we love their sound but don't want the exact same thing over and over. I for one love it and I think there is something for everyone on this one:thumb:
want to be a nobody without peer
want to be a thought that's never done
want to shake your faith in human nature
want to break the hearts of everyone
want to be your wheezing screen door
want to be your stars of Algonquin
want to be your roaring floorboard
want to break the hearts of everyone

meh...that's what I think about this album thus far. I'm not too excited about it, and I'm not even sure if I will make much of an effort to rush out and buy it. I have purchased every album from Fully Completely to World Container the day they were released, I don't think I will for this one.
With Gords screaming in concert, the outrageous ticket prices, and now this lack luster album, I'm quite sad to say the Hip are losing much of the lure they've maintained over me for 20 years now. I sure hope when I do see them in September that this sort of funk will have passed and it will be back to normal adulation for me. We'll see.

In Honey, Please what does Gord say here....
"Honey maybe everything we need is on the other side of this ____________"?
I had another burning lyric question earlier but I forget. Guess I'll have to listen through the album again and find it. What a shame. Not.
