Generally I take my rock with a twist of Swedish pop, folk, or political anger but this latest album by Harvey Danger is good.  Not only is _Little by Little_ good, it&#8217;s also free.  The band decided to release the album as a free &#8220;torrent&#8221;:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/downloads\/Harvey_Danger-Little_by_Little.MP3.zip.torrent\">http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/downloads\/Harvey_Danger-Little_by_Little.MP3.zip.torrent<\/a> , &#8220;direct download&#8221;:<a href=\"http:\/\/files.harveydanger.com\/downloads\/HarveyDanger_Little_by_Little.zip\">http:\/\/files.harveydanger.com\/downloads\/HarveyDanger_Little_by_Little.zip<\/a> , and as a &#8220;traditional CD&#8221;:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/store\/\">http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/store\/<\/a> .  As to why a young rock group might *on purpose* expose themselves to the perils of pirating?  Here&#8217;s their &#8220;explanation&#8221;:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/press\/why.php\">http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/press\/why.php<\/a> .<br \/>\n!=<a href=\"http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/images\/ads\/ad2.jpg&#8221;\">http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/images\/ads\/ad2.jpg&#8221;<\/a> \/><br \/>\nThe new album is bouncy enough to dance to but not too pop-ish, with smooth male vocals and thoughtful but still-accessible lyrics.  By no means pedestrian, _Little by Little_ is what rock has been waiting for.  The sound is reminds me of Ben Folds, but without the pretension that makes him almost unlistenable.  Luckily you don&#8217;t have to take my word for it, &#8220;try it yourself&#8221;:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/downloads\/\">http:\/\/www.harveydanger.com\/downloads\/<\/a> .
