Product Details

When four of indie rock and Americana's most restless songwriters finally got in a room together, the result wasn't a vanity project but a genuine creative collision. Oberst's urgency, Ward's melodicism, James's cosmic reach, and Mogis's production instincts pushed each other somewhere none of them had gone solo. Those five previously unheard tracks, with Will Johnson in the mix, offer a rare glimpse at where a second chapter might have taken them.


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.
