Insight
The Hip's ninth full-length album reintroduces fans to the band's trademark sound. Filled with Downie's lyrical wit, the 2004 album is a par-for-the course Hip release. "It Can't Be Nashville Every Night" provides a classic Hip single — an upbeat, guitar riff-laden song awash with entendres and poetry — that failed to reach the band's earlier success. Perhaps the world had moved on from the Hip's straightforward rock coupled with the thinking person's lyrics, embracing a more Nickelback-like aesthetic. This doesn't detract from the album's well-written verses and on-the-nose assessment of the human condition that we've come to expect from Canada's band.
