With Trouble at the Henhouse, the Tragically Hip turned in an album that is in the same vein as their previous record, Day for Night. Although Trouble at the Henhouse would have benefited from a more gritty sound, the CD is a set of professional anthemic hard rock -- with occasionally dips into bar band boogie. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Professional Reviews
