The last Our Lady Peace record, Curve, was a major departure for the band no matter how much they might have wanted fans to believe that it was actually a return to form of some kind. The music was quite a bit less "direct" and quite a bit more introspective than their previous stuff, which may or may not be a good thing.

This track has a Doves-ish sound to it and after a couple of listens it really does pull you in.

Here's Rabbits.

Our Lady Peace remain one of my favorite straightforward rock bands -- even though their last couple of albums have been pretty underwhelming.

Here's their latest single, the video for which was released just this morning.

This is As Fast As You Can.

Yet another decent way to start off 2012 -- with new music from Our Lady Peace.

Here's their new single, Heavyweight.

From what just might be my favorite album from these guys -- a clever piece of writing that slipped in largely under the radar -- here's Our Lady Peace's In Repair.

One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands.

From their criminally underrated 2001 album Spiritual Machines -- which featured drum god Matt Cameron playing on two tracks (including this one), was mixed by Brendan O'Brien and might very well be their best overall record -- here's Our Lady Peace, with Right Behind You.

The first concert Jayne and I ever went to together was Our Lady Peace at the Hammerstein Ballroom here in New York City. It was back in 2002, on the Gravity tour -- which is why this video brings back some pretty good memories.

I'm a big fan of Our Lady Peace, and here they are with the live version of All For You.
