Country-fried “Confessor” tracks like “Star Witness” and “Hold On, Hold On” inhabit a different sonic universe than indie-tastic Pornographers rave-ups like “Letter From an Occupant” and “The Laws Have Changed.” This is not to say that fans of Case’s Pornographers work will not enjoy her new record—if anything her devotees will...
