I like this album a lot, though like Jefrey, the second half seems to drift a bit.

The thing that's bugging me though, is Myriad Harbour. It's a great song, but I can't help think that either it should have been a Pixies song, or it sounds like one (esp. at the beginning). Anyone any idea which Pixies' song it sounds like?

Not so. We asked about him in the missing members thread.

Not that his member is missing.

That I know of.


I was going to make a Lorena Bobbitt reference, but then I remember it was no longer the early nineties.

They played "The Bleeding Heart Show" in the trailer for some crappy-looking movie. My theory is that Carl needed the money, since he moved to Brooklyn and all.

I'm not into New Pornographers at all, but I remember I liked "Broken Beads" (or is it "Breads"?).

And I really like "Myriad Harbour". Llama, I know what you mean about it sounding like a Pixies song.

Anyone listen to the new neko case album “middle cyclone”? It’s pretty good. It’s ranked in the top 10 on mega critic with a score of 82. I’m planning on seeing her perform at the Winnipeg folk festival in july.

Also I have the recent ac newman cd “get guilty”. I really enjoy that too. Mood of the album seems to be similar to the last new pornographers album…..

I have the Neko album, and I quite enjoy it. My wife and I are going to see her live in a few weeks.

Middle Cyclone is a grower, and the album cover is beyond awesome. I love the froggy song at the end. Great white noise for sleeping in hotels.

There's a behind the scenes video on Amazon that's worth a watch.

I can't get into Get Guilty at all. I've tried.


Qu'ils aillent se faire foutre <-- yeah, what he said.
