Imperial Teen – Runaway by MergeRecords
The adorable and fun-loving Imperial Teen (who I always think of as the original New Pornographers; their excellent first album, 1996's "Seasick," did predate the Pornographers by three years, but that's irrelevant, they don't have that much in common, besides being awesome and having a love of jaunty pop) have a new album out today! You can stream the whole album right here. Or even purchase it!
What the world needs now...
Wha?!
"who I always think of as the original New Pornographers"
aka the Old Pornographers?
Note also the near-impossibility of buying a legitimate download of signature alt-homosexualist/cobainist anthem “You’re One,” though the “Perfect Kiss”–rivalling hyperformalist music video can still be viewed.
