Bill Callahan - Apocalypse (2011, Drag City)





















Maybe if I didn't hate the song "America" so bad I would like this album more, but the truth of the matter is "America" get's stuck in my head and is the only thing I can think about when considering the album.  It's sad.  The rest of the songs are alright and sound like an extension of Sometimes I Wish I Were An Eagle, which I absolutely love, but Sometimes I Wish People Would Change Their Sound Up.  It's hard to get excited about something if you feel like you've already heard it before even if it's really good.

I think she is referring to the song titled "America" on the album, not the song streaming on the post.
