Magnolia Electric Co. - Josephine
The last Magnolia’ album, itself a tribute to one of the band's members. Before time moved on again and we had another reason to mourn and celebrate.
The sadness-tinged Alt-Country troubadours Magnolia Electric Co.'s 2009 outing, after the death of long time Bassist Evan Farrel, Josephine was no doubt the strongest set of songs the now late Jason Molina had written since the inception of Magnolia Electric Co. and those classic themes take on new meanings on this record.
Molina had approached the universal loneliness before, but never in such a focused, directed manner as found on Josephine. Molina, Magnolia Electric Co. and legendary recording engineer Steve Albini had put it all to heart and all on this record.
The album was also an experiment in Molina's song craft, introducing some real lessons in brevity as he whittles a handful of tracks into well-under three minutes. There are cues taken from great songwriters like Willie Nelson and Warren Zevon.
