''Little Jabs'' is the second full-length studio album by Canadian indie rock band Two Hours Traffic, released on Bumstead Records on July 24, 2007. The album was produced by Joel Plaskett, and recorded in Halifax and Toronto. Guitarist Alec O'Hanley explained the ''Little Jabs'' reference: "The title is meant to be about that point in a relationship where you’re more and more curt with one another... And in song, it’s meant to be little blasts—jabs—in these three-minute pop songs." == Reception == The critical reception has been positive. Music critic Iain Ilich of the ''Edmonton Journal'' wrote that it was the best album he has heard so far this year. Other critics have compared the band favorably to Joel Plaskett's own releases, and place the band in the tradition of great Canadian pop, citing the "catchy hooks". One critic correctly predicted in July 2007 that the album would be nominated for a Polaris Music Prize in 2008, and ''Eye Weekly'' named it one of the top 20 albums of 2007. The album reached the top ten of ''Chart'' magazine's Canadian College Radio Top 50 Chart. ''Little Jabs'' was named Alternative Rock Recording of the Year at the 2007 Music P.E.I. Awards, as Two Hours Traffic also received the award for Group of the Year. The album is nominated for Recording of the Year, Pop Recording of the Year, and Video of the Year ("Jezebel", directed by Ron Mann) at the 2008 East Coast Music Awards. The album was a nominee for the 2008 Polaris Music Prize.〔(Polaris Music Prize )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Little Jabs」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
