Yeah, not usually into Canadian musicians/bands but Ian is quite amazing. I sometimes wish his songs were better, but the playing and singing is extraordinary.
Have you listened to the last Big Wreck album? Some really great songs on there. They don't all floor me, but Wolves, Albatross, A million days... Doesn't get much better.
Ian is great.
Yeah, the new one is pretty good and perhaps a bit more polished & refined as a whole than the first 2 BR discs. I just get bored of how the choruses tend to get milked like commercial radio tunes. I like the edgier and more unpredictable moments best with the great musicianship, not "Staaaay with me for a million daaaaaaays"...hitting me over the head again 20x's in a row is all...But, thanks for mentioning the album and I'll make sure to revisit it soon. It sure beats 99 percent of rock music out there nowadays.
