Description

By simplifying to its core components, Canoe has created a nicely polished album true to their sound while exploring new territory for the band such as Nashville twang in “The Lion”, or progressive indie-pop in “To The Commonality.” The common thread of Americana binds the album with its various styles together, and is best heard in the narratives “Old Man of the Lake” and “The Mountaineer”.

Produced within 4 months – a record time for the band – the album has a consistency of purpose, and tightly defines its intentions. As this is Canoe’s third album in as many years, it’s exciting to track the evolution of their music and try to visualize where they’ll go next.
