From Chartattack.com:
"The second highest debut belongs to The Trews' Den Of Thieves at #6. The Niagara Falls, Ontario foursome whipped up some of their I Am Canadian style rock on their latest disc, pleasing jocks and Tragically Hip fans everywhere."
Whatever thats supposed to mean.

As a lot of you know, I'm a big fan of the Trews. And it's a really good disc, with tracks 2 through 6 all kicking my ass, Ana and Mia (track 10) as well as the final track on the album. While I don't think this will be their apex, it's certainly a leap from last time, and they are one of the most promising young Canadian bands out there I think.
As for Chart, who cares what that magazine thinks. It prides itself on being the Canadian voice for music, but I find, more often than not, it misses the boat, focussing on the soulless artists this country produces instead of some of the more important, young bands (aside from the May cover feature on the Weakerthans...however, I had problems with that feature too, as it only interviewed one member of the quartet.)

Not all of the Hip's fans are jocks, but most of the jocks are Hip fans...that's the way i put it, anyway.

I just moved to North bay for school this year, and the Trews are playing a show on Campus on Wednesday! I'm pretty excited for that. I've listened to Den Of Theives 3 or 4 times so far, and I like it more each time.

Sam is here next week too, but I will be stuck where I am now, work. I'll get to see him in Montreal in a few weeks, and The Trews I'll see opening for Robert Plant in a few weeks
