The Tragically Hip have been heroes in their native Canada since the 1980s, though they've remained a cult item in the U.S. With more than 20 years in the rearview mirror, the band has retained its spirit, but grown in subtlety. While this is their second album overseen by Metallica producer Bob Rock, WE ARE THE SAME actually sounds rather mellow in contrast to early efforts like UP TO HERE. Needless to say, Gordon Downie's distinctive vocal quaver is still the dominant element, floating atop a rootsy mix of acoustic and electric guitars and a folk-rock feel that allows the band's thoughtful, melodic compositions to unfold in a way that feels natural and graceful.
