I'm a huge collector of Hip singles nad promos. I am trying also to create a definitive database of what exists as for as singles and promos go. Below I have listed the basic info from my collection. If anyone owns and / or can supply confirmed info on any releases that are not listed, please post a reply with such info. If there are other collectors like me out there, then if this forum post grows it can become a great referance point / checklist for us all. Please feel free to ask for any further details on the items listed.

Thanks for the help.

The Bear here in Ottawa is having their very own "World Album Premier (and how they can claim it's the World Album Premier I don't know)" Sunday at 8 PM... Wendy Daniels is travelling to K-Town to meet the guys, so expect over-run questions on Canadianism, Beer, and Peculiar Lyrics and Inspiration... any how, if you missed it the first time, as I did, 8 PM on the Bear... <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.thebear.fm">www.thebear.fm</a><!-- w --> ...

Anyone else a bit dissapointed that Gord changed the opening line from "Here comes a country are you in or you out?" ?

I thought that line was great, but perhaps they ditched because it was too blatantly political... I don't know. I thought that line was a keeper for sure.

If you had to choose between to two, who would you listen to and why?

Truthfully, I think I like Nickelback more than Avril (rather dislike them less) I think it's an insult to real artists/musicians to lump Avril in that category. At least Nickelback paid SOME dues by touring for years before they hit it big. Avril is just another example of the MTV generation ruining the music environment.

i can't believe the lack of excitement shown towards this song..for me it blew my mind the minute i heard it...radio has never heard vocals like this, and for me it sounds like the hip are refreshed, revived and havin a damn great time!!

just my 2 cents.....(that's all i can afford!!)

i suck really bad at writing album reviews, so i am just going to give my personal opinion on each song. i have heard the cd 10 or so times now, so here we go:

heaven is a better place today

this is a good rocking tune. i didn't care for it at first but now that i have heard 5 or 6 times, it is really growing on me. i am digging the electric sound. gords voice is a little high, and that is the one thing i don't care for.

summer is killing us

meh. this song really doesn't do much for me. i need more time to try and get a groove for it.

gus the polar bear

good funky tune. again.. more electric. i picture a really cool light show with this song.

vaccination scar

hands down, the best song on the disc. we all know it. i still thing this would make a kick ass show opener.

it can't be nashville every night

good rhythm. i find myself tapping along with this song. upbeat tune.. i like it.

new orleans is beat

a slower song. i don't think i care for it too much. there is something about it that i don't really care for, but i can't quite put my finger on it. it is almost as if some of the lyics don't flow very well. also, and maybe it is jusy my computer, but gord vocals seem to be mixed a little low.

you're everywhere

a mid tempo song. good beat. you can really hear paul/gord s singing backup. their vocals have come a long way. for some reason, this osng reminds me of tiger the lion. maybe it is just the tempo. i dunno. great song tho.

as makeshit as we are

GREAT beat to this. not too much to say. but this is a good tune. i love it.

mean streak

another mid tempo song. i don't care for it at all. moving on...

the heart of the melt

up beat and more good guitar work from bobby. rocking tune. i like it. not my favorite, but still damn good. gord's voice is a little irritating to me, tho.

one night in copenhagen

"good fucking luck" :lol: for some reason that line makes me laugh. i don't know what else to write. it is a good tune, tho.

are we family

*yawn*

goodnight josephine

we have heard this song already and we all know it rocks hard.

this album is really really good. bobby's guitar work is great and the sounds take me back to the road apples or fully competely era.

the cd takes a few listens to really get in to it, but it eventually rock your face. very good cd. 4/5 stars.

Anyone else notice page 82 of this months Maxim magazine? The Hip are given 4 stars for their new album, but who the hell are the people in the picture? How does Maxim make a mistake like that?!

There's an article about the Hip, based on a recent interview with Paul Langlois in today's Kingston Whig-Standard. Little new is said other than that the Hip want to play Kingston soon, possibly, buy not likely, this summer.
