Our Lady Peace--Spiritual Machines (Columbia)

Savage hymns from one of Canada’s best-loved bands. Singer Raine Maida’s perennial dissatisfaction and discontent with suburban life and the world that contains it has never sounded better. From the fiery “Right Behind You,” to the stormy commentary of “Everyone’s A Junkie,” Maida’s post grunge howl will make you want to change your life. A blistering fifteen song set that serves as a cautionary collection warning the listener that complacency is not only dangerous, it’s boring. You’ll never go to Starbucks again.
