For Destroyer fans, the six songs on Notorious Lightning and Other Works will sound familiar-- although perhaps not as familiar as they might think. All six tracks appeared on 2004's grandiose , on which singer-songwriter and New Pornographer Daniel Bejar took his heady popcraft to new heights of synthesized theatricality. At subsequent live gigs, however, Bejar performed with the crazed snake charmers (and fellow Vancouverites) of Frog Eyes as his backing band, and was apparently so tickled by the results that he has here attempted to bottle that genie for home use.
