Neko Case is an American artist, best known for her solo career and her contributions as a member of the Canadian indie rock group The New Pornographers.
The singer-songwriter will return in September 2013 – with her first album in over four years, “The Worse Things Get, The Harder I Fight, The Harder I Fight, The More I Love You” (via ANTI.) The first single ‘Man’, featuring M Ward on guitar, is now available on iTunes.
We listened to new single ‘Man’ and here’s what we thought:
Flustering drums wrap tightly around the acute intermingling buzz of intermittently swarming guitars. These fuss and sizzle all around the place.
The pace steps forward at a progressive rate – yet without any obvious haste. And those lively guitars add to the feeling of moody irritation.
The piano is glossy as it ripples along to the voice of Neko. Then she bursts in like a foam of shocked and vivid aggravation. This song is punctual, punctuated and well-drilled.
