This is the lead single to their new album, Grinning Streak. It's not bad, but I don't think it's anything really special either. They used to be one of my favourite bands, but I haven't really loved anything they have put out in years. This moves up to #13 on Canada's AC chart this week. [LISTEN]

I just heard "Odds Are". Is that their second single? I agree... this new material isn't too interesting. I wonder if that one member leaving affected their songwriting. I don't really remember what "Boomerang" sounds like. It seems like every time I turn to the AC channel, the new music are the overplayed recurrents from pop, so I never stick around long enough to hear actual new music from Canadian artists.

Odds Are is the catchiest song I've heard from them since Sound Of My Heart.
I agree that I never hear much catchy Canadian songs on the radio anymore. There used to be a time when I was excited to hear new CanCon but now it's so rare.

I agree, I really like "Odds Are". It's much better than "Boomerang". And I agree about the lack of quality in CanCon lately.
