Jugando con todos los puntos fuertes de The New Pornographers, Together combina el espíritu desenfadado y glamoroso de su debut Mass Romantic con la composición muy personal y emotiva de su material más reciente. Como resultado, es un álbum que pretende complacer, tan emocionante para los obsesivos de The New Pornographers como para los nuevos oyentes ocasionales.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBaladas impresionantes como \"My Shepherd\" y \"Valkyrie In The Roller Disco\" se encuentran entre las melodías más hermosas que Newman haya escrito jamás, y los sencillos \"Crash Years\" y \"Your Hands (Together)\" se encuentran entre los favoritos, al igual que \"The Slow Descent Into Alcoholism\" y \"The Laws Have Changed\". La voz de la vocalista y tecladista Kathryn Calder nunca se ha integrado tan bien con la de Case, y las tres contribuciones de Bejar son probablemente las más pegadizas y menos inconexas. Newman dice que siempre tuvo el sueño de encontrar un punto intermedio entre Led Zeppelin y The 5th Dimension, lo que no es una mala manera de describir la mezcla de composiciones engañosamente complejas con ganchos pop y potencia de rock de estadio que ofrece Together.

But A.C. Newman and his crew also have a keen understanding of the mind\/body conundrum -- they want their music to be as intelligent as they are, but they also want it to feel good. At their best, the New Pornographers have shown they know how to strike an impressive balance between what's smart and what's fun since dropping Mass Romantic in 2000. They've once again hit that mark all but perfectly on 2017's Whiteout Conditions. Full of gleaming surfaces dominated by drums and keyboards, this album suggests a new wave dance disc of the '80s that had the chance to mature and do a lot of reading, and this music is mature while still encouraging the listener to crash the party and dance. Electronic keyboards and percussion dominate the arrangements, but the results sound admirably organic, as if there's a healthy pulse beneath all the electronics, and Newman made clever use of his vocalists, as voices glide over the music that's constructed in part from samples of their own singing. And if there's a healthy portion of cynicism in these songs, that's one of the reasons Newman and his Pornographers sound warm and realistic, without succumbing to a false optimism common to this sort of music. You can dance to the music on Whiteout Conditions; you can also tap your feet, sing along, or just ponder its literacy if you prefer, and it will be rewarding under any circumstance. If North America has a better and more insightful pop group than the New Pornographers, don't tell them, or they'll start on a new reading program to beat the competition. Whiteout Conditions shows they're already brighter and more satisfying than just about any of their peers. ~ Mark Deming\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"New Pornographers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44317390766278,"sku":"MZ363C-JU7I-00","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/8085\/0374\/files\/New-Pornographers-WHITEOUT-CONDITIOLP_AIX8Y.jpg?v=1762331886"},{"product_id":"pre-order-former-site-of-lp","title":"Former Site Of [LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eA woman is trapped on a cruise ship.

These and other people at personal and societal extremes are the subjects of ten timely, timeless short stories collected as meticulously crafted pop songs by The New Pornographers on their forthcoming album, The Former Site Of. The album, like Continue as a Guest, finds The New Pornographers-bandleader A.C. Newman, Neko Case, Kathryn Calder, John Collins, and Todd Fancey-expanding their already rich catalog in surprising fashion. Joined by legendary session drummer Charley Drayton (Divinyls, Keith Richards, Fiona Apple), the space contained in a New Pornographers song has never been this clearly articulated or generously textured, giving a distinct pulse to the characters whose lives spill out in Newman's tender, evocative lyrics. The Former Site Of adds new depth to the sound Newman shook loose through building and recording in a home studio, fine-tuning the band's creative process far beyond the lockdown-era necessities of remote collaboration. \"Having time in my studio really opened things up,\" he explains. \"I can get the skeleton of a song together first-just a couple of elements, the key feeling, really as little as possible-before bringing it to the band and running from there.\" Two albums into this shift, The New Pornographers are creating universes of intricately textured sound and narrative detail, every layer keyed to reveal an unexpected new facet. As on Continue as a Guest, one of the more readily apparent layers is the way a song forms itself around a featured instrument. On The Former Site Of, it's a mandolin which, in Carl Newman's hands, lends lead single \"Votive\" it's sense of acceleration as it builds from the atmospheric sweep of it's synth and keyboard opening to a classic, wide-open jam. \"Hands are cupped around a match \/ I'm just trying to keep the lights on,\" Newman sings on the track, the metaphor-hanging on despite the precarity of life-a thread that weaves through The Former Site Of. \"Bonus Mai Tais\" is, in a sense, about the flame going out, Newman writing directly of meeting a friend with advanced cancer for drinks, disarmed by their candor in the face of death. It is a brutally sad song, the anguish of the moment hanging in Newman's voice, and one of the band's most beautiful, with Neko Case's and Kathryn Calder's harmonies acting as the scene's ethereal mirror. The Former Site Of places many of it's subjects on the edge of oblivion-their time growing short, their situation doomed-but hanging on. This is also true when The New Pornographers turn their focus inward as they do on \"Pure Sticker Shock,\" Newman's lyrics grappling with self-worth. That they can identify themselves among such a disparate cast-even the Cassini-Huygens satellite of \"Spooky Action\"-ties the album together before the final repeated lyric of it's title track, the way into the heart of each of these songs warmly lit and inviting. Far from being the expected next chapter from The New Pornographers, The Former Site Of is an argument against expectation by a band that continues to evolve rather than rest on their laurels. Even in it's darkest or most self-deprecating moments, there is an effervescence to the music here that is irresistible, an affirmation that the struggle of it's characters and the listener, like a photograph of a distant planet, is worth it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat Princess Story\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure Sticker Shock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBallad of the Last Payphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpooky Action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWish You Could See Me I'm Killing It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVotive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWine Remembers the Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalligraphy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBonus Mai Tais\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Former Site of\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 673855087917\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Merge Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.27.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"New Pornographers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45480207974598,"sku":"101598626","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/8085\/0374\/files\/4489108-3517551.jpg?v=1769442614"},{"product_id":"pre-order-former-site-of-cd","title":"Former Site Of [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eA woman is trapped on a cruise ship.
