Our Take

Indie-rock supergroup The New Pornographers have arguably never sounded better than on their debut album "Mass Romantic." And now, with the Matador Revisionist History Edition, fans can delve even deeper into this seminal release.

The album kicks off with the infectious "Mass Romantic," setting the tone for what's to come with its catchy hooks and lush harmonies. Tracks like "July Jones" and "The Slow Descent Into Alcoholism" showcase the band's unique ability to blend pop sensibilities with intelligent lyricism.

Throughout the album, A.C. Newman's unmistakable vocals soar above Neko Case and Dan Bejar's harmonies, creating a sound that is both cohesive and dynamic. The instrumentation is tight and polished, with standout performances from keyboardist Blaine Thurier and drummer Fisher Rose.

The real standout of this reissue, however, is the bonus material. B-sides like "To Wild Homes" and "Execution Day" provide a glimpse into the band's creative process, while live versions of tracks like "Letter From An Occupant" showcase the New Pornographers' electrifying stage presence.

Ultimately, "Mass Romantic (Matador Revisionist History Edition)" is a must-have for any fan of indie-rock. It's a timeless classic that has only grown more vibrant with age. So grab a copy, stick it on your turntable, and prepare to be swept away by the euphoric sounds of The New Pornographers.
