I picked up this album from former Smog frontman Bill Callahan at around the same time as I bought 'Beware' from Bonnie Prince Billy (aka Will Oldham) a couple of years back. There are definite similarities in style and sound between the two artists (a sort of bleak lo-fi folk) and both these CD's are great but Callahan's slightly more offbeat lyrics just about edge it for me. You can read further reviews, listen to sample tracks and order either CD through Amazon here and here |
