Mass Romantic (Mint). Review by James Mann.
THE NEW PORNOGRAPHERS MASS ROMANTIC Mint For years, it's been fashionable (with much justification) to routinely chide the musical output of Canada -- the names Rush and Bryan Adams begin and end such arguments -- but with this release, we're gonna have to find another country to pick on. The New Pornographers ...

A brilliant band with brilliant songs is hampered by the unforgiving sound of the Crystal Ballroom. Bob Ham was, for better or worse, there.
THE NEW PORNOGRAPHERS Portland, OR September 16, 2007 by Bob Ham When listening to any of the New Pornographers' four albums, it is obvious from the get go that you are in the hands of master pop songsmiths.

Hide, Run Away (One Little Indian). Review by Sean Slone.
BC CAMPLIGHT HIDE, RUN AWAY One Little Indian BC Camplight is the brainchild of Philadelphia’s Brian Christinzio, a 25-year-old with an appreciation for the classic pop sounds of Burt Bacharach, Todd Rundgren and others.

This Night (Merge). Review by Sean Slone.
