In Flight, BNL’s eighteenth studio album, retains the dry wit and keen observation we expect from vocalist/guitarist Ed Robertson, bassist Jim Creeggan, keyboardist/guitarist Kevin Hearn and drummer Tyler Stewart, but adds a strong sense of maturing and lessons learned. There is also a sense of joy (which is exemplified in the first single, “Lovin’ Life) and appreciation. On the new single, “One Night”, BNL honor “…the magical connection that happens between a whole audience and a band.” Songwriter Robertson, says, “When it goes right – which it almost always does – for that ‘One Night’, it’s a very intense connection.”In addition to the eight songs written/co-written by Ed Robertson, the album features four songs from Kevin Hearn, (two of which are love letters to Toronto – “See the Tower” and “The Peace Lady”) and two from Jim Creeggan (including “Wake Up”, a co-write with the Arkells’ Max Kerman).

Continuing in the mature, reflective vein of 2003’s Everything to Everyone, the Barenaked Ladies’ seventh studio album Barenaked Ladies Are Me features more of the band’s trademark wit and melodic folk-rock. Never straying too far afield from the formula they’ve been using ever since their breakthrough 1998 album Stunt, Barenaked Ladies are true torchbearers for the post-R.E.M., post-Smiths sound that shares much in common with such bands as Beautiful South, They Might Be Giants and even Sloan. Once again, lead vocal duties are largely split between Steven Page and Ed Robertson although both pianist/guitarist Kevin Hearn and bassist Jim Creeggan take the lead here on their original tunes “Vanishing” and “Peterborogh and the Kawarthas,” respectively. Interestingly, these tracks, along with Hearn’s “Sound Of Your Voice”, are some of the best on the album with both musicians displaying a true knack for writing heartfelt, literate and tuneful songs about leaving those you love, whether they are your wife or young son. Elsewhere, the band’s gift for mixing the humorous and the poignant is evident on such eminently catchy tracks as “Bank Job,” “Bull in a China Shop’,” and “Rule the World with Love.” For a band 16 years into its career, it’s great to hear an album so full of sparkling, positive-minded songcraft and thoughtful revelations.
