I've been spending some time with Jason Collett's solo album Idols of Exile. Most of you probably know that Jason is the guitarist for Broken Social Scene but this album is a big departure from the BSS sound. Idols of Exile is out on the ultra hip Arts & Crafts label, home of BSS, Feist, Phoenix the Dears and plenty of others. The album as a whole is very strong he really knows his way around a catchy chorus. Most of the tracks on the disc are winners with Hangover Days and Pink Night being standouts for me. I think my favorite tune is Pink Night. It has a fantastic opening line and the line about what his girlfriend calls him always makes me think of okryan ,creator of the lamest blog ever.

I caught him with Flatlander back in the summer at Higher Ground (I think he opened for Rogue Wave). Really great show. He played with quite the group of mustached men.
