I literally have not listened to a note from any other songwriter since Sunday evening - a head first dive into the artist‘s back catalog unlike any I‘ve done in a long time. Molina, with his practically limitless supply of great songs, was the perfect choice. I think it’s very a

Review: Magnolia Electric Co. - Josephine
3 months ago

My review of the new album from Magnolia Electric Co. is online at the Tucson Weekly:Josephine finds Jason Molina bound by regret and fits of restless isolation, staring down his ghosts while forging a path of escape through deep shadows and the faraway horizon.

How appropriate...quoting one of Los Angeles native sons in the title of this post, Ice Cube.After wading through what felt like thousands of scammers, grifters, and slum lords I have found a place to live. It is way out there...suburban LA. But I am 32yrs old and I really don't need to live in Hollywood. I have been here for 11 days and it was fun to visit, but walking out to my car every nigh...
