The Laws Have Changed by New Pornographers

The second album by the New Pornographers, Electric Version, is my favorite. I found it more consistently catchy than either of Masso Romantic or Twin Cinema. The Laws Have Changed is a particularly catchy song from this particularly catchy album.

Drink To Me Babe, Then by A.C. Newman

If the hits from his other project aren't enough, A C Newman also has some solo recordings. Drink To Me Babe, Then is the sample from his solo album, and it stands up well to his other work.

Mass Romantic by The New Pornographers

Mass Romantic, the first song from their first album, was my first New Pornographers experience. And what an experience. It's bouncy, energetic power pop, and Neko Case's voice makes the song sweet enough to cause diabetic shock.
