NEW PORNOGRAPHERS beat the leak? CHALLENGERS: "Buy Early Get NOW" + more 2007 TOUR DATES
DOWNLOAD: Filmcan podcast May 2007 video podcast (MP4)
This video podcast "features 15 minutes of free content, including Blaine Thurier's "Intimate Portrait," a self-made introduction to this New Pornographers member's filmmaking capabilities, plus a look at the recording of the latest New Pornographers' album Challengers in Brooklyn, NY."
Has Challengers (out August 21, 2007) leaked yet (besides the one track)? I don't think so, but you can buy it now through the "Buy Early Get Now" website, and have instant (within 48 hours) access to a full stream of the album which you can listen to all the way until until the album actually comes out. This is a great idea, and actually this is the 4th Matador album to be released this way - Yo La Tengo, The Ponys and a Pavement reissue were first.
Not only that - New Porn is offering even more incentives to BUY their album. More album info, new tour dates, and presale info, below....

hahahahaha "beat the leak"? as if

"As if" what? If you buy it today and it doesn't leak by Wednesday morning, you've beat the leak.
Which kind of sounds dirty, but that's a different matter altogether.
It's great that labels are finally getting their acts together and providing incentives like extra tracks, t-shirts, posters, etc. to get people to buy music.

Actually not a bad idea. Good they are trying something but eventually all of these tracks will get on the net including the album and 3 cds of bonus. I am wondering if the 3 bonus cds are going to be in flac or mp3 or both.

yes, but perhaps people don't buy an album once they downloaded the leak because the excitement is gone - they don't really WANT it anymore. If the first way to hear it is through this stream, will people not be more likely to spend the $12 to have it a day or two or three early?

The NP's just sent out an e-mail that said both Neko Case and Dan Bejar will be on the tour that begins Sept. 13 (more dates to come).

i paid the $20+ with tax. the wait is killing me. i'm not digging the lack of instant gratification. and, yeah, i'll be bummed if the leak beats the stream. very psyched for the new album.
