Carl Newman Reveals New Pornographers LP Details
"We're like Fleetwood Mac if Dylan joined."

The notion of a fourth album from a band like the New Pornographers— the side-project-gone-amok that, among others, harbors principal songwriter Carl Newman, Destroyer's Dan Bejar, and titan-voiced troubadour Neko Case— seems an almost impossible feat. It's hard enough keeping centrally-located bandmates together, let alone riding out the schedules of so many otherwise-occupied musicians over the many miles that separate them.

But against the odds, Newman tells us that the band's fourth LP of dashing, deftly crafted pop will be out in August, and will almost certainly be titled Challengers.


FUCK. YES.

Edit: Argh. The most commonly asked question in the universe is being rehashed in the Angelina thread. It makes me want to post a link to the first page of the thread.

Yeah, that irritated me too. Stupid people piss me off.

I feel stupid for taking part in the rehashing of the "why doesn't Angelina adopt from America" question but it does seem like a normal question to ask. But I agree. It's already been asked to death. Angelina and Brad are damned if they do, damned if they don't.
