Product Details

When four of indie rock's most restless creative voices finally got in a room together, the result was something that couldn't have come from any of their solo careers alone. The 2009 self-titled debut captured a genuine collaborative spirit, each member subordinating their signature sound to serve the songs, and those five unreleased tracks from 2012 offer a rare glimpse into what a second chapter might have sounded like before it quietly slipped away.


Monsters of Folk - comprised of Jim James (My Morning Jacket), M. Ward, Conor Oberst and Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes) - released their first collaborative album in 2009. The set was recorded in Malibu and Omaha with all four members playing every instrument. It marked their only recorded output as a band. This reissue features revised artwork, the original 15-song record plus 5 unreleased studio tracks from 2012, intended for a never-finished 2nd album, and featuring "5th Monster" Will Johnson.
