Monsters of Folk: Monsters of Folk
"Cross Collaboration,” “Super Group,” call it whatever, Monsters of Folk simply sound good…real good. Conor Oberst, Jim James (Yim Yames), Mike Mogis and M. Ward have all established themselves as artists to reckon with in this new millennium and they gathered back in 2004 to start tossing ideas around. Their self-titled album was released this month; it is an enchanting mix of guitar strums, wonderin’ blues and flat out gorgeous vocals.
