 The New Pornographers is also great.

i haven't heard it yet, but the buzz on the new rogue wave is not favorable

[xcanuck]

For you New Porno fans....here's something fascinating yet incredibly disturbing (especially if you grew up in Canada during the late 70s/early 80s.

 Seeing Neko all Stevie'd out is weird. The Burton Cummings look on the keyboardist is awesome. But my fave is the return of the double neck Gibson.
 
 Unfortunately, that damn song is still running through my head. Running...like a bad case of diarrhea. Ick....

i've actually heard good buzz on this one...hmmmmmm.
 
 really, though, next week's New Music Tuesday is what has got me pumped.  the new DCFC has already been leaked online and is streamable through many sites, and is really great.  i also can't wait for Ok Go

I bought BRMC, NPs, and John Vanderslice.  I picked up I am Kloot several months ago while in the UK.
 
 BRMC-Obviously a completely different sound.  I am really enjoying it right now but I don't know how it will sit after a few more listens.  I am excited to see them live, with them hopefully doing half acoustic/half plugged in.
 
 NPs...exactly what you would expect. top notch pop.
 
 John Vanderslice-Good, but not as good as I was hoping for.  Although, the song "Trance Manual" is my favorite song of any of the CDs I have bought in the past few months.
 
 I am Kloot...solid, but not special.  I swear they are getting worse and worse, though.  Their debut was amazing (one of the few discs that I have consistantly listened to for the past five years). They have failed to live up to their promise.

new pornographers is a fun listen.
