Magnolia Electric Co are back with Josephine
This is yet another of those bands that we've come across from time to time but never really paid enough attention in order to recall later on. Jason Molina is the man behind this act and has already realeased a dozen (or more) records under the name Songs:Ohia before recording his last LP titled Magnolia Electric Co. This signaled the stage name change to Magnolia Electric Co along with a few more albums, until we reach this year's latest release titled Josephine. Jason's music is sweet lo-fi folk with elements of alt-country that bring obvious comparisons to the master Will Oldham. Then again, I'm no exepert on this genre but I surely enjoyed this album for a change of pace from my usual pop/rock sounds. Beautiful melodies, a sence of darkness and a deep, trembling voice is enough to ensure you'll be quickly lured into it as well. It's nice to re-discover some artists afterall!
