Customer Reviews
Great stuff
In what could easily be another Traveling Wilburys-like release, Monsters of Folk, a collection of Bright Eyes’ Conor Oberst, Jim James of My Morning Jacket, Mike Mogis and M Ward (and on the tour, Will Johnson of Centro-matic, who could easily be the Monster-est of the Monsters...) have banded together to not be a supergroup. The album’s effect is slightly of four part-albums added together – although there is some collective songwriting, the identities of the individuals themselves define each of the songs: M Ward’s songs sound like M Ward, Conor Oberst’s sound like Bright Eyes. This is still A Good Thing – chances are that if you like one of these guys, you will be in the right place for all the others. Plus, the seriousness which can occasionally be pervasive in their individual releases is largely absent here – they seem to having some loose limbed fun. Some games have been upped, though – Oberst sounds right up for this one, with focus and drive that he has missed a little recently. Seen as a nice slice of Americana, Monsters of Folk (which we have to guess is a little self-deprecating) is a nice enough album, one that in time will assume the same role as the Wilbury’s did in Dylan’s canon.
Fast Grower
Didn't warm to it at first, but now I can't stop listening to it! 'Whole Lotta Losin' ' and 'Ahead of the Curve' are particular favourites. Buy it!
Awesome
Pre-ordered without hearing any of the tracks, glad I did brilliant record from start to finish
