Neko Case released her 7th album (5th studio album) 'Middle Cyclone' in 2009. She is also a member of 'The New Pornographers' as well as other side projects. 'Middle Cyclone' was a real nature album.... her attachment to nature and animals came through as the main theme. "People Got a Lotta Nerve" is a great song on all levels. Musically, it is as good as anything she has written and lyrically, it is a clever lament to the poor animals that we have labelled as man eaters and the fact that we are surprised when they do eat us. She toured earlier this year and I couldn't miss that one... it was at the Bruce Mason theatre in Auckland, which was the perfect, reasonably intimate, venue for a concert that was as good as I had expected.
