Product Description

To celebrate the Anti release of two of Case's early masterworks - 2000's "Furnace Room Lullaby" (SoundScanned over 63,000) and 2003's "Blacklisted" (SoundScanned over 107,000), Anti is re-releasing "Fox Confessor Brings The Flood" (SoundScanned over 175,000) with a bonus disc that includes tracks from those albums, and a previously unreleased demo of "Behind The House". "Fox Confessor" topped a variety of year end lists upon its 2006 debut, including Amazon.com's #1 ranked "Best Music of 2006: Top Editors' Picks" and the year's #1 disc at CMJ. Look for her on tour with the New Pornographers.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Outstanding Ms. Neko Case and Fox Confessor "Plus", February 27, 2009

By	S. Smith (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have been a long time Neko Case fan (since her first CD back in 1997, The Virginian, won me over). I have been buying all of her CD's since then, but had not purchased "Fox Confessor" right away (I downloaded it from iTunes the day it was released instead). However, once I saw this re-release with bonus tracks and new Artwork, I gave in and bought the disc for my collection. I have no buyers remorse at all.

It's true that the bonus disc just contains some prime cuts from her earlier CD's, but it also contains a previously unreleased "Behind The House" demo.

I love this release, and a few of the songs have become instant Neko classics that she plays live often in her shows, such as "Hold On, Hold On" and "Maybe Sparrows".

All in all, this is an excellent introduction to Neko Case, especially for those that may not own her earlier CD's. The bonus disc contains some real gems from Neko's past, such as "Deep Red Bells" and "Set Out Running". This is also a perfect edition of this CD for any Neko fans that may not yet own "Fox Confessor". Highly recommended.

A new favorite. I'd say more but I'm no music critic. I just like what I like. Her songs are great songs AND great stories. A lot of fun. Her voice is huge.
