I love all of the Hips albums, but i have to say " Phantom Power " is my favorite. So many great songs.... " Save the Planet, Membership, Vapor Trials, etc etc.

Escape is at hand for the travlin man and poets are among my all time favorite hip songs.

So whats your favorite album by Canada's best band ( IMO )?

    It's really hard to choose, but for reasons I can't quite put my finger on, "Road Apples" sticks out in my mind. "Long time running" has to be the favorite song, but then again, I havn't heard a Hip song I didn't love.
    Want to be enlightened, like I want to be told the end.

    Definitely Day for Night. Grace, Too is their best opener. Nautical Disaster is their most well-written song. And I love Greasy Jungle, Fire In The Hole, So Hard Done By, Thugs, and Scared.

    Alot of great albums put out by these guys. However, as far as my favourite I would have to go with Phantom Power.

    Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

    Phantom Power is my all-time fave for personal reasons more than anything, but I think Day for Night is probably their masterpiece, and arguably the best rock album to come out of the 90s. Every song on that disc is pure genius. I'm also a really big fan of World Container.
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    -Tom Waits
