Hey, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy released a new record! Shocking I know. A double 7'' this time out, and a collaboration with a young folk singer named Mariee Sioux, who I've never heard of before. They got an all-star group of musicians to round out the session band, including Farmer Dave of my beloved Beachwood Sparks plus members of A Perfect Circle, Bright Eyes, The Entrance Band). All that said...it sounds like pretty typical BPB work, only he's got a female singer helping him on vocals. Current fans will surely enjoy, but there is nothing essential about this.
(Insert snarkiness here on how stupid the name of the label is, which surely must have been created by one of those "random band name" generators that are all over the internet.)
