Canada’s Hip has achieved undeniable greatness, graduating from bar band to stadium act with consistently strong, uncompromising albums. But throughout Hip history the American charts have always eluded them. That may change with “In View,” the buoyant first single from the band’s 11th album, produced by Rob Rock (Metallica, Bon Jovi). Bright and accessible, it’s the closest the Hip has ever come to pop music. Also cool are excursions into one-drop reggae (“The Kids Don’t Get It”) and giddy travelogue (“Fly”).
