SOUND SAVER. Songs: Ohia will break your heart if you let them (and sometimes even if you don't). The songs here are full of failing relationship melancholy. Jason Molina's lyrics and voice cut right to the chase without being insincere or sappy. He is accompanied by haunting and fluid guitar, bass, and drum arrangements. Edith Frost joins him on "Captain Badass" to stab your heart further. Comparisons to Will Oldham's work (in various Palace incarnations) are inescapable, but this music stands on its own. Sadness and insight breathe through Molina's voice without ever giving in to utter despair. There is a strength that remains and comforts through it all. These songs are examples of some of the most heartfelt and beautiful music you will ever hear. To quote "Captain Badass": "You won't have to think twice/If it's love you will know." You will understand.
