They sell out major festivals and concert venues all over our country yet they have never achieved mainstream success, most Canadians will tell you that they hate them because they are pimped so regularly on Canadian Radio due to our Canadian Content laws.

Road Apples and Up To Here are probably their best albums
this is all very true. those two are their best albums. the CRTC laws did get them played everywhere too.

the OTHER reason people find them annoying is because they pretty much pulled an ac/dc and put out basically the same album (fully completely) for a decade.
