An entrancing (if depressing) song cycle that yes, reminds me a little of Will Oldham and Bill Callahan in places. Some old school Nick Drake flavour here and there too.
She was really channeling something back in '98.
Possessing Cat Power seems depressing
This is a beautiful and mood-leveling album. Not leveled-like balanced it out. Leveled like-knocked it flat. I don't know that there is a specific track I'd go back to just for a 'fun listen'. But as an experience, it's quite powerful.
