This was an album I considered for my own pick, so it's great to see it here. It's a fucking masterpiece. Every song has its own little personality, it has this rich, full sound with great dynamics and just the right amount of catchiness. And tbh, on paper I should fucking hate it. It ticks ALL of my "oh fuck this quirky, folky, Gen X Canadian hipster crap" boxes, yet despite that, I think it's one of the best albums of all time. That has to mean something. I've even got a ticket to see them live in a few months. I would urge everyone to buy a copy of this album, even if you don't have a CD player. 5/5. A+++.
