Great band, great album, great review. You see a lot of those threads you mentioned through this album in much of their other work as well. The little tragedies and joy and desperation and frustrations of youth, drugs and alcohol, all with a distinct sense of place. “He loved the Golden Gophers but he hated all the drawn out winters”. Fantastic stuff.

“Sense of place” is a great way to put it - you hear that a lot with Canadian writing too.
