THE NEW PORNOGRAPHERS

Challengers

2007-08-27

“Failsafe” uses a tremolo guitar that sets the tone and everything else falls in line. “My Rights Versus Yours” starts out slow but then quickly picks up. “All The Old Showstoppers” has a country feel to it with some great guitar playing. “Unguided” is an epic song about A.C. Newman’s August 2005 in New York. “Mutiny, I Promise You” is a fast paced song that the band let loose on. – Jerrod Willea
