In Between Evolution is the ninth studio album by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip. It was recorded at Studio X in Seattle and was released June 29, 2004. The album debuted at number one in Canada, [4] selling 22,500 copies in its first week. [5] However, the album got kicked off Canada's number one spot by Avril Lavigne's breakout album. [5] The album was certified Platinum in Canada in September 2004. [6]
One of the major themes of this album is the response to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. "Heaven Is a Better Place Today" doubles as a tribute to Dan Snyder, a player for the Atlanta Thrashers hockey team who died in an automobile accident nine months before the album's release, and for young men being sent to war.
The Hip performed a rough version of the song "It Can't be Nashville Every Night" on a season two episode of Canadian situation comedy TV program Corner Gas , as a local band renting out main character Brent Leroy's garage for band practice.
All songs were written by The Tragically Hip.
