Days in the Wake

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Recording under a variety of "Palace" guises, indie critics are hailing Will Oldman, from Louisville, Kentucky, as the '90s' answer to Robert Johnston for his fractured blues and country primitivism. Palace Brothers, is a one-mic strum & croon affair that exerts a strong, emotional undertow on "Whither Thou Goest" and "Pushkin." --Jeff Bateman --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

Palace Brothers - really good.......2005-12-20

Will Oldham has released records under many names: Palace, Palace Songs, Palace Brothers, Palace Music, Will Oldham and now he is with his longest incarnation: Bonny Prince Billy. As the last alias he is been fairly succesful, he has of course been covered by Johnny Cash.

This album, which I just know as "The Palace Brothers" is one of my favorites. Whereas many lofi albums are a mix of junk and popdiamonds, the quality of this album is good.

The guitar is acoustic and very basic, the voice shaky but the songs are of a high standard. The beautiful "You Will Me Me When I Burn" starts of the record and it just goes on. The simple song "I Send My Love To You" is the best song and should be sung around campfire everywhere.

A must-have for the indie/lo-fi fan.

Haunting and beautiful and shivery.......2004-12-08

This is one of those CDs that gets under your fingernails and down into your bones. Oldham couldn't play acoustic guitar or sing or write songs back then, but he's like a spooky old man on a front porch somewhere in coal country. Every song is a quiet night with a storm gathering in the distance. It's absolutely unforgettable.

Perfect in all it's brutal subltey.......2004-07-24

OHHHH man. So I dug Palace before I heard this album. I had heard alot of his other stuff, and thought him pretty brilliant. But THIS album... OH MAN. I was driving to Boston in the middle of the night with my fiancee, popped this in for the first time, and niether one of us spoke for the duration. All time froze, the cars and darkness cleared a path, and we were swept along with this gorgeous simple infinite sound in our ears. Sure, his voice is a little wavery but THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT! I mean PLENTY of people can 'sing pretty', but Will Oldham sounds like he's seen 100 years of pain and glory and his voice just bleeds honesty. The whole thing is just amazing. I hate to gush, but I can't help it. This is music at it's best. Buy it, please, it'll make you smile and stop your breath, I promise.

Oh my God!.......2004-01-29

buy this one and viva last blues and i see a darkness.

Delicious and perfect pie.......2003-12-21

This is an album that cools by the windowsill and will take you to a thousand different backroads, each one more rustic and poetic than the last, like a movie, until you realize you're listening to an album and not getting lost in a visual world you didn't create but feel so attached to. Songs like "I Send My Love To You" or "All is Grace" are timeless snapshots of everywhere and everything, in the grass and heads nodding underneath the fire of the sun. This is music they make suitcases and trains out of. These are all must-have songs that will leave you satisfied. Buy this novel immediately.
