Companion piece to the Palace Music singles collection, "Guarapero" compiles stuff from The Palace years (1991-1995) through the Will Oldham years (1996-2000), and includes some unreleased gems, plus faves like "Drinking Woman" and "Every Mother's Son"; special requests like "The Spider's Dude Is Often There" and "Gezundheit"; and a high-larious cover of AC/DC's "Big Balls" that is too too cheeky. Also includes two tracks from the infamous, never-to-be-released "Guarapero" LP, recorded by Steve Albini a   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Once again, Will Oldham emerges out of the murky, Midwestern haze with another helping of lovely, low-key musings on his fourth full-length album, Arise, Therefore, this time recorded under the name Palace Music (previously Palace Brothers, Palace Songs, or just plain Palace). Much quieter than Viva Last Blues and less-Appalachian in its folk spirit than Palace's earlier music, the songs on Arise, Therefore shift and moan with breathy cracks and shivers; Oldham's meandering, poet-speak vocals;   [ read more ]

Solo debut for Palace/Palace Music/Palace Brothers' Will Oldham. Special guest appearance by Dave Berman of the Silver Jews. All Music Guide's Stephen Thomas Erlewine said, "Retiring the Palace moniker for no reason other than a whim, Will Oldham doesn't necessarily explore new territory on his first official solo album, Joya. Oldham sticks to the simple, slow acoustic country-folk songs that dominated the latter-day Palace albums, and like before, the songs teeter between apparent sincerity and inscrutable   [ read more ]

Throughout his career, Will Oldham has returned to the setting of "Black/Rich Music." Beginning with his 1994 Palace Brothers album "Days in the Wake," some of Oldham's best songs have been recorded solo. Oldham relies on a basic, strummed accompaniment for the acoustic material on "Black/Rich Music," and songs seem to have been written and recorded with little editing or refinement. Still, the simply hewn melodies and one-take feel of the performances are all part of what is endearing about Oldham's approa   [ read more ]

The first new WILL OLDHAM record in two years to be released under his own name. An instrumental soundtrack of sorts to a short film called Ode by KELLY REICHARDT, recorded in Shelbyville, KY by Will's brother PAUL. RESTOCK! Ten pieces, all done as a cycle with a repeating guitar line, slowly augmented with layers of keyborard melodies that grow more ominous and beautiful as the moments pass.
