They are Canada's all time best band. Alas Gord (Gordon Downie, who was a also phenomena)l poet passed away recently. It was a big loss for us. My ex-husband is a kiwi and even he had to admit that The Hip is hands down the best band he ever heard. But they never broke in the States and so it was possible right up to the end to see them in a small club in the states or a huge venue up north. Here is a playlist of some of their harder hitting stuff. They have some melodic pieces too.
BTW who (or what) is The Tragically Hip & Gord
