Words of Wisdom. #005:

"The New Pornographers, "The Laws Have Changed," from Electric Version (Matador) Neko Case pipes in the background like an organ. Then, as a multiple exposure, she's high above the music, singing down to a single image of herself. Male voices take over the blips in the background as Case goes back to the sky. "So all hail--What will be revealed today," she trills, but, as on the New Pornographers' Mass Romantic, she's the revelation, and coming out of this band there's no sound richer than hers abroad in the land today." - Greil Marcus, "Real Life Rock Top 10", citypages.com, 5/14/03.
