iTunes Review

A sort of indie-rock super-group, the output of Vancouver's New Pornographers often seemed to take a backseat to the eclectic first careers of its various participants. These originally included Thee Evaporator's John Collins, Zumpano's Carl Newman, Dan Bejar from Destroyers and filmmaker Blain Thurier, along with occasional vocalist Neko Case and drummer Fisher Rose. Consequently, three years passed between their well-received debut and this 2003 sophomore effort for Matador. Yet the band manages an even more energetic and assured second coming, channeling a couple decades of hook 'n' harmony rich pop affections into the title track and standouts such as "It's Only Right," "Blown Speakers," and the infectious sing-along anthem "The Laws Have Changed."

It seems like each album has had a "theme", and I would describe the Electric Version as, well, electric! I always love the "bonus track" in It's Only Divine Right!

Indie Rock at its Best

I consider this one of the best albums in my iTunes library. "The Electric Version" starts off the album with a bang, with its infectious melodies and sing-along lyrics ("A new parade of faith and sparks/The electric version harks"), and moves onto the upbeat "The Laws Have Changed". Then you have "All For Swinging You Around" which is (ironically) very "swinging". Overall, I think this album is awesome. And, "The Electric Version" is probably my most favorite song of all time.
