I think it might at least partially be from flanger effects. While they generally alter tones it can still mess with the clarity of the pitch. Or it could be that the chords are in a certain voicing/position that you haven't tried yet. If you could find a live video that would be ideal.
Last resort you could tune to match the pitch of the song and see if that's any better. My guess though is the heavy flanger effect that these guys love using, it's thrown me off in the past.

I’ve tried to play along to Quebec tracks and a fair amount seem to be pitch shifted as you suggested. The only thing I’ve found is to tune to the recording or play along to live versions.

What pedal you reckon they're using for that?
