I feel much the same way; however this happens to me with most CD's - Hip & others.
In the "other" category right now is "Final Straw by Snow Patrol."
It is a constant battle between Final Straw and IBE over who gets played on the drive home from work.

I cannot listen to this CD a single time...I ALWAYS listen to it at least twice, be it at home or on the bus or whatever. When the notes of Josephine fade to black, I always hit play again instead of fishing for another disc. It's short so it's easy to listen to multiple times, and the songs are just that good!

I've had IBE going pretty much non-stop since it was released. What an excellent album... and it's true; it does keep growing on you.. I have to listen to it at least five times a day or something.. I've never been into a CD like this since CMG!

I would agree. Like all the hips albums, they grow on you. When I first heard IBE all I was listening for is gords great lyrics. Then I found myself in a day dream playing air guitar to Robby Baker's great guitar work on this album. Not to take anything away from Gord but most of the time all you hear about his rants. Robby's guitar work on all the albums and live show are sick. He gives the hip their classic sound. :thumb:
