Spewing Poetry: The Undeniable Greatness of The Tragically Hip
We say it often on this podcast: the 90s is a bottomless pit of incredible rock music as wide as it is deep. And if you grew up in the United States like we did, you may have slept on arguably the greatest Canadian rock band of all time: The Tragically Hip. From the cryptically beautiful lyricism of frontman Gord Downie to the catchy hooks and song structures of the band behind him, we deep dive into their 1994 record Day For Night and ask the question we find ourselves asking constantly on this podcast: where has this band been all our lives?

Was Bush Really Grunge? Breaking Down Their Early Sound
We finally get around to talking about Bush and dive into their first 2 records: Sixteen Stone and Razorblade Suitcase. Released only 8 months after the death of Kurt Cobain, the music world was split between fans that wanted to move on from grunge, and those that were highly protective of it's legacy and culture. Bush got caught somewhere in the middle, seeing commercial success on one hand and scorn from devoted grunge heads on the other. But decades removed from the era, the 2 records stand out amongst the slew of grunge copycats that came and went.
Tracklist
Bush - Everything Zen
Bush - Swim
Bush - Bomb
Bush - Personal Holloway
Bush - Insect Kin
