Giveaway: Tickets To See New Pornographers At Palladium Ballroom

A.C. Newman put out our absolute favorite album of 2009. For good reason to; Get Guilty --with it's infectious indiepop hooks and brilliant melodies--was far and away the catchiest and most enduring albums of the year. Of course his fellow Pornographer bandmate Neko Case (not to mention SubEx-er Jenn Hudson) would argue that her Middle Cyclone was the superior album.

But I think we could all agree that the New Pornographers are the most effective when firing on all cylinders, embracing the full force that is the unmatchable pop-reckoning of the Canadian supergroup working together. Need more convincing? Look no further than their latest album, the aptly titled Together, released earlier this year. As you may recall, our own Jesseca Bagherpour noted their move to a more organic sound on the disc, moving away from computer-driven production and towards a more lush, richly-layered blend of strings and vocals harmonies.

And you can come with us while we bow down before our heroes from the great white North when they play the Palladium Ballroom later this month (7/24) with The Dodos and Imaad Wasif. Even better, you can do so for free by emailing us with the phrase 'We'll End Up Together' as the subject. We'll email the winners later this evening. Good luck.
