Description

The latest release from Canadian indie band The New Pornographers, Continue as a Guest, is produced by A.C. Newman and features compatriots Neko Case, Kathryn Calder, John Collins, Todd Fancey and Joe Seiders as well as contributions from saxophonist Zach Djanikian and in addition to the Bejar co-write, "Firework in the Falling Snow" was co-written by Sadie Dupuis (Speedy Ortiz, Sad13). 

The album tackles themes of isolation and collapse, following the ambivalence of day-to-day life during the pandemic and the endless pitfalls of living online. But Newman says that Continue as a Guest’s title track also addresses the continually rolling concerns that come with being in a band for so long. “The idea of continuing as a guest felt very apropos to the times,” he explains. “Feeling out of place in culture, in society—not feeling like a part of any zeitgeist, but happy to be separate and living your simple life, your long fade-out. Find your own little nowhere, find some space to fall apart, continue as a guest.”

Limited to 750 copies, the VMP exclusive version of The New Pornographers' Continue as a Guest is pressed on White & Blue A-Side/B-Side vinyl at Precision Record Pressing (PRP). The 1LP will arrive in a single, direct-to-board, foil-stamped and numbered jacket. It was mastered by Matthew Barnhart at Chicago Mastering Service.
