CBC did a countdown of what they consider to be the top 100 greatest albums of all time: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://music.cbc.ca/#/blogs/2013/7/100-greatest-Canadian-albums-ever">http://music.cbc.ca/#/blogs/2013/7/100- ... lbums-ever</a><!-- m -->
Two Tragically Hip albums made it on the list: Day For Night comes in at #66, and Fully Completely comes in at #13.
This list is worth taking a look at!!!

Pretty good list overall, but there are a lot of glaring omissions in my opinion. Maybe I'll compile my own list and post it here when I'm done.

There are so many things wrong with that list, mainly the over-emphasis on indie rock. Wolfe Parade's album way ahead of DFN? Kathleen Edward's Failure ranked that high? I like that album a lot, but it's just not that significant. And they sure do love their Arcade Fire, don't they. (So do I, but their albums are over-rated IMHO)

i went into that thinking...ok, where's Lowest of the Low's 'Shakespeare My Butt!' going to end up?
kept going on reading thinking, ok good it's in the top 20, in the top 10, in the top 5...and then i get to the end and go "wtf? how's that not in there AT ALL?!"

DFN is better than anything Arcade Fire have done or ever will do.
