Please excuse the tone of my late-night alcohol fuelled over the top rant. Needless to say I'm a very big fan of the New Pornographers and felt they had been done a great disservice in having their music labeled as soulless. Obviously we all have different musical tastes, which keeps this blog interesting, but you need to give me more than a one line slapdown if you're going to dimiss a very good band's output as lacking in soul.

And speaking of the hard to quantify "soul" let me recommend, as I have already to Kyle, the new Flying Lotus album Cosmogramma. Give it a listen.
