In Between Evolution is the ninth studio album by the Canadian rock band the Tragically Hip. It was recorded at Studio X in Seattle and released June 29, 2004. The album debuted at number one in Canada,[4] selling 22,500 copies in its first week.[5] However, it got bumped off the number one spot by Avril Lavigne's Under My Skin.[5] In Between Evolution was certified Platinum in Canada in September 2004.[6]

One of the major themes on the album is a response to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. "Heaven Is a Better Place Today" doubles as a tribute to Dan Snyder, a player for the Atlanta Thrashers hockey team who died in an automobile accident nine months before the album's release, and for young men being sent to war.

The Hip performed a rough version of the song "It Can't be Nashville Every Night" on a season-two episode of the Canadian television sitcom Corner Gas, as a local band renting out main character Brent Leroy's garage for band practice.
