Idols Of Exile is the disc that fully confirms Jason Collett's talent as a storyteller and chronicler of the potency of the everyday. On this gorgeous album, whether lyrical or melodic, Collett is never less than the pure, perfect truth. Many BSS members turn out to join the fun, but they all leave with an ineffable education in humanity. May he now be mentioned in the same breath as Ron Sexsmith as one of Canada's greatest songwriters.
