Album Notes Includes 2 bonus tracks. In the mid-2000s, Canadian indie-rockers Broken Social Scene proved to be something of a cottage industry, between their own records and such offshoots as Feist and Metric. The latter group, which features BSS keyboardist/singer Emily Haines, comes fully into its own on its second album, LIVE IT OUT. The mix of contemporary indie rock and early-'80s New Wave is buoyed by some colorful synthesizer lines amid the terse guitars and drums, and Haines's vocal presence is at once subtle and commanding.
Editorial Reviews ...[A]n urgent and flexible dance-rock-pop album that fuses all three elements to conjure up the best of '90s alternative rock, with a splash of Brit intellect. CMJ
'Poster Of A Girl' sports a slinky French-pop backbeat and matching breathy pouts... Magnet
4 stars out of 5 -- Writer/singer Emily Haines is still secretly one of the most articulate, compelling performers in modern rock....[With] a voice that's by turns scathing, despairing and, finally, defiantly hopeful. Uncut
