A.C. Newman, also recognized as the frontman for The New Pornographers, has just released his solo album titled Shut Down the Streets via Matador (U.S.) and Last Gang (Canada). "Encyclopedia of Classic Takedowns," which features his fellow New Pornos member Neko Case on backing vocals, takes on a rather familiar sound with melodic, catchy hooks and a pop-infused indie rock sound.Fans of his previous work will not be disappointed due to the strain of conscious similarities presented in this track.
