We were very excited to source a limited amount of CD/LP copies of this self-released, self-titled effort straight from the Royal Stable—like its eponymous predecessor, what it lacks in running time it more than makes up for in tenderly oblique acoustic balladry, and some of the strongest, strangest Will Oldham songs we've heard in years.
"Will Oldham hasn’t run out of tricks in his 20-plus years of sharing his music with Louisville and beyond. Having played with identity and consistently challenged the music industry's rigid rules throughout that time, Oldham's latest twist is a self-produced, self-released album that originally had only been available at local shop Astro Black Records. The collection is his first full-length since 1994 to consist entirely of his voice and guitar, otherwise unaccompanied, and it's telling to hear how much older and more confident he sounds now compared to then." - LEO Weekly
