Haven't we discussed this artwork before? I swear I saw it on here somewhere. Artwork aside, I am looking forward to this album.

She's still a tad young for this joke to be fully applicable yet, but I do find it ironic that she's on the hood of a COUGAR.

Yeah, it's been discussed already. I don't care what anyone says, it's a good album cover.

This is the first digital magazine I've encountered that has "page turn" sounds.

Shocking and hilarious.

I wanted to like this album for some reason (I don't know why -- I don't like Neko Case or The New Pornographers) but I heard one song a while back and couldn't get into it at all.

I also don't like the album cover.

I'm also surprised she sells out shows as fast as she does.

I'm younger than she is, so (hopefully) the joke works for me...
