Raine Maida - The Hunter's Lullaby

Our Lady Peace was and still is one of my favourite bands. They are one of those groups that just keep getting better with every release. The group is fronted by Raine Maida and although Our Lady Peace have been around for well over 15 year, the singer is only now releasing his first full-length solo album. Maida released an EP entitled Love Hope Hero late last year. Inspired by the art of spoken word, The Hunter's Lullaby is a collection of songs from a well established songwriter. Although Maida is used to writing songs that fill up a hockey arena, tracks on the The Hunter's Lullaby are a far cry from 'arena rock.' However, the songs are equally as powerful, just listen to the opening track 'Careful What You Wish For.'

The album drops on November 13th but you can stream The Hunter's Lullaby in it's entirely on Maida's MySpace page.
