From Wiki:







The Tragically Hip EP 1987







The Tragically Hip EP is the first release from Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip.



Released in 1987, it did not make much of an impact on the Canadian music scene, and it is still not considered one of their best works. Singer Gordon Downie's lyrics and the music of the rest of the band would progress much further even by the time of their first full-length album; however, "Small Town Bringdown", "Last American Exit", and "All-Canadian Surf Club" do show some resemblance to later work. The EP was produced by Ken Greer of Red Rider fame.



Tracks:



1. "Small Town Bringdown" (Sinclair) – 3:05

2. "Last American Exit" (Sinclair) – 3:50

3. "Killing Time" (Downie/Baker) – 4:50

4. "Evelyn" (Sinclair) – 2:25

5. "Cemetery Sideroad" (Downie/Sinclair) – 3:15

6. "I'm a Werewolf, Baby" (Downie/Baker) – 3:20

7. "Highway Girl" (Downie/Baker) – 3:28

8. "All-Canadian Surf Club" (Sinclair/Baker)– 2:50 (appears on the CD release only)



Up to Here 1989







Up to Here is the second full-length album by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip.



It was released in 1989, and made the band almost instantly famous in Canada; although it was also released in the United States, there was little reaction to it there. Many of the songs on the album are now considered classics, and are staples of various formats of Canadian radio. "38 Years Old" is a fictional account of an escape from Millhaven Penitentiary in the band's hometown of Kingston, Ontario, although many people still mistakenly believe it refers to events from singer Gordon Downie's life.



"New Orleans is Sinking" is perhaps the band's most well-known song. When performed live, Downie often goes off on an ad-libbed tangent. In the most famous such version, a B-side from the 1994 CD single "Grace, Too", he performs a monologue about swimming with orcas, one of which bites his arm off after its mate falls in love with him. This version is often known as "Killerwhaletank". In other known versions, including the one that appears on the live album Live Between Us, he sings additional verses from songs by David Bowie, Joni Mitchell and The Beach Boys. "Blow at High Dough" later became the theme song to the CBC comedy-drama Made in Canada.



Tracks:



1. "Blow at High Dough" – 4:36

2. "I'll Believe in You (Or I'll Be Leaving You Tonight)" – 4:01

3. "New Orleans Is Sinking" – 4:16

4. "38 Years Old" – 4:18

5. "She Didn't Know" – 3:28

6. "Boots or Hearts" – 3:41

7. "Everytime You Go" – 3:21

8. "When the Weight Comes Down" – 4:43

9. "Trickle Down" – 3:10

10. "Another Midnight" – 3:54

11. "Opiated" – 3:40



Road Apples 1991







'Road Apples' is the second full-length album by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip.



Released in 1991, the original title of the record was Saskadelphia, but the record label considered it "too Canadian." As a joke, they re-titled it Road Apples, slang for horse dung. After the album was released, they created the Another Roadside Attraction festival. The album was recorded in New Orleans, and although most of the songs were finished by the time they arrived, "Little Bones" was inspired by a local taxi driver. The album is often cited by fans and critics as the band's finest work. As with most Tragically Hip albums, Canadian themes appear in the album's lyrics. "Three Pistols" is an English translation of the name of the Quebec town Trois-Pistoles, and refers to Tom Thomson, a Canadian painter, as well as Remembrance Day, the Canadian commemorative day for its war dead. "The Luxury" refers to the fleur-de-lis, provincial symbol of Quebec, while "Born in the Water" is about the controversy surrounding Ontario municipalities declaring themselves "English-only" in the dying days of the Meech Lake Accord debate. (See Sault Ste. Marie language resolution.)



Tracks:



1. "Little Bones" – 4:44

2. "Twist My Arm" – 3:54

3. "Cordelia" – 4:10

4. "The Luxury" – 3:38

5. "Born in the Water" – 3:24

6. "Long Time Running" – 4:23

7. "Bring It All Back" – 4:39

8. "Three Pistols" – 3:48

9. "Fight" – 5:58

10. "On the Verge" – 3:54

11. "Fiddler's Green" – 4:25

12. "The Last of the Unplucked Gems" – 2:03



Fully Completely 1992







Fully Completely is the third full-length album by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip. It was their first album to reach #1 on the RPM Top 100 albums chart. [1] It was certified diamond in Canada in January 2007. It was released in October 1992, and the cover art was designed by Dutch artist Lieve Prins. Prins, an "electrographer" who makes art with photocopiers, had the band photocopy various parts of their bodies and then made a collage with the results. The original wall-sized piece is currently on display at The Bathouse Recording Studio. The album was produced by Chris Tsangarides, who has also worked with Black Sabbath, Depeche Mode and Judas Priest, among many others.



Like their 1989 album Up to Here, Fully Completely is considered by the Hip's fans as one of The Tragically Hip's best albums, and a classic Canadian album. Also like Up to Here, many of the songs are still played in regular rotation on various formats of Canadian radio. Fully Completely represented a large step away from the band's originally blues-inspired sound. Lyrically the album alternates between pessimism and despair: "Locked in the Trunk of a Car" is written from the perspective of a serial killer, and "Courage," perhaps the album's most popular cut is inspired by a chapter in Hugh MacLennan's book The Watch That Ends the Night. It seems to detail the thoughts of a person who cannot decide whether or not to commit suicide. In the music video, Gordon Downie wears a Boston Bruins jersey that was made by his mother.



Some of the songs are inspired by real, predominantly Canadian, events - "Fifty Mission Cap" is about Bill Barilko, who played for the Toronto Maple Leafs before he disappeared in 1951, and also cites imagery related to Canadian bomber crews in the Second World War. "Wheat Kings" is about David Milgaard, who was wrongfully convicted of murder in the 1960s. The title of "Pigeon Camera," amazingly enough, literally refers to pigeons with cameras attached to their legs that were used (mostly unsuccessfully) in the First World War as tools for aerial observation. Some of the songs (more noteably "At The Hundreth Meridian" and "Locked In the Trunk of a Car" ) were written or in some way started during one of Gordon Downie's famous onstage rants. The major lyrics for "Locked In the Trunk of a Car" first originated in the famous live version of "Highway Girl" known as "Double Suicide". "At The Hundredth Meridian" was also partly established during a small concert they performed in Ontario on Canada Day.



This album is noted by fans for its superior sound quality and representative style. All songs were written by The Tragically Hip.



Tracks:



1. "Courage (for Hugh MacLennan)" – 4:27

2. "Looking for a Place to Happen" – 4:18

3. "At the Hundredth Meridian" – 3:20

4. "Pigeon Camera" – 4:34

5. "Lionized" – 3:20

6. "Locked in the Trunk of a Car" – 4:42

7. "We'll Go, Too" – 3:24

8. "Fully Completely" – 3:30

9. "Fifty Mission Cap" – 4:10

10. "Wheat Kings" – 4:19

11. "The Wherewithal" – 2:55

12. "Eldorado" – 3:46



Day For Night 1994







Day for Night is the fourth full-length album by the Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip. It was released in 1994 (see 1994 in music).



Overall, Day for Night is more mellow and acoustic than the band's previous albums, but retains the dark and pessimistic flavour of Fully Completely. There are several hard rock songs included, such as "Nautical Disaster," "So Hard Done By" and "Inevitability of Death". It was the band's most successful album commercially and critically, proving their progressive improvement lyrically and musically from each release since Up to Here. "Grace, Too", "Greasy Jungle", "Nautical Disaster", "Thugs" and "Scared" were all successful chart hits. The name is taken from the cinematic term day for night, a method of photography using filters to make a scene shot during the day appear to have been shot at night. It is also the title of a François Truffaut film. The album was produced by Mark Howard, Mark Vreeken and The Tragically Hip.



The band also appeared on Saturday Night Live in 1995, performing "Grace, Too" and "Nautical Disaster" in an episode hosted by fellow Canadian and fan Dan Aykroyd, in order to promote the album.



Tracks:



1. "Grace, Too" – 5:34

2. "Daredevil" – 3:46

3. "Greasy Jungle" – 4:27

4. "Yawning or Snarling" – 4:54

5. "Fire in the Hole" – 3:16

6. "So Hard Done By" – 3:29

7. "Nautical Disaster" – 4:43

8. "Thugs" – 4:43

9. "Inevitability of Death" – 3:52

10. "Scared" – 5:08

11. "An Inch an Hour" – 3:21

12. "Emergency" – 3:34

13. "Titantic Terrarium" – 4:34

14. "Impossibilium" – 4:05



Trouble at the Henhouse 1996







Trouble at the Henhouse is the fifth full-length album from Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip. It was released in 1996 (see 1996 in music).



Henhouse was somewhat softer than their earlier albums, much like their fourth album Day for Night. The title comes from the cover art, a photograph by Avery Crounse, which is also called "Trouble at the Henhouse". "Ahead By a Century" is widely considered one of the band's classic songs, and was one of the biggest chart hits of their career. It was used in the 2008 film Jumper.



Tracks:



1. "Gift Shop" – 4:57

2. "Springtime in Vienna" – 4:38

3. "Ahead by a Century" – 3:43

4. "Don't Wake Daddy" – 5:08

5. "Flamenco" – 4:06

6. "700 Ft. Ceiling" – 3:40

7. "Butts Wigglin'" – 3:47

8. "Apartment Song" – 3:57

9. "Coconut Cream" – 3:21

10. "Let's Stay Engaged" – 4:53

11. "Sherpa" – 5:13

12. "Put It Off" – 5:11



Phantom Power 1998







Phantom Power is the sixth full-length album by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip. The album was released in 1998. The album was also released in the United States, but they continued to have little success there, despite their appearance on Saturday Night Live'. The song "Escape Is at Hand for the Travellin' Man" is a tribute to Jim Ellison of Material Issue. "Bobcaygeon" won the Juno Award for Single of the Year in 2000.



Tracks:



1. "Poets" – 3:59

2. "Something On" – 3:21

3. "Save the Planet" – 3:38

4. "Bobcaygeon" – 4:55

5. "Thompson Girl" – 3:32

6. "Membership" – 4:40

7. "Fireworks" – 3:56

8. "Vapour Trails" – 4:29

9. "The Rules" – 3:46

10. "Chagrin Falls" – 4:10

11. "Escape Is at Hand for the Travellin' Man" – 5:52

12. "Emperor Penguin" – 4:08



Music @ Work 2000







Music At Work (or Music @ Work) is the seventh full-length album by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip. It was released in 2000 (see 2000 in music).



The album's title comes from the slogan of a Toronto soft rock station, EZRock. Its use is meant to be ironic; the first line of the title track is "Everything is bleak, it's the middle of the night/you're all alone and the dummies might be right." The music video for "Music at Work" was filmed in the lobby of Commerce Court North, part of the headquarters of the Canadian bank CIBC. Much like their previous album, Phantom Power, it had decent sales.



After the album was released, singer Gordon Downie released a solo album of music and poetry called Coke Machine Glow.



Tracks:



1. "My Music at Work" – 3:06

2. "Tiger the Lion" – 5:30

3. "Lake Fever" – 4:34

4. "Putting Down" – 3:13

5. "Stay" – 3:22

6. "The Bastard" – 4:54

7. "The Completists" – 3:07

8. "Freak Turbulence" – 2:53

9. "Sharks" – 4:14

10. "Toronto #4" – 2:59

11. "Wild Mountain Honey" – 3:56

12. "Train Overnight" – 3:17

13. "The Bear" – 3:55

14. "As I Wind Down the Pines" – 2:34



In Violet Light 2002







In Violet Light is the eighth full-length album by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip. It was released in 2002 (see 2002 in music). After the album was released, in 2003 singer Gordon Downie released his second solo album of music and poetry, Battle of the Nudes. Packaged with the album in stores was a membership card for The Hip Club, an online fan club which offered three downloadable bonus tracks, "Forest Edge", "Problem Bears" and "Ultra Mundane". As of May 23, 2006, thehipclub.com is no longer active. The album was produced by Hugh Padgham who has worked extensively with Phil Collins, The Police, Split Enz and Sting among others. The music video for "'It's a Good Life, If You Don't Weaken'" was filmed in Oshawa, Ontario at Parkwood Estate. The light-hearted music video for "The Darkest One" featured Don Cherry and the Trailer Park Boys.



"All Tore Up" is featured as menu music in XSN Sports' NHL Rivals 2004 for the Microsoft Xbox[1]. This marked the first time a Hip song was licensed for a video game. All songs were written by The Tragically Hip.

1. "Are You Ready" – 2:39
