RATING: 4 out of 5
Led by Jason Molina of Songs: Ohia, Magnolia Electric Co. has played as Molina’s touring band for the past two years. After last year’s live release Trials & Errors, What Comes After The Blues is the band’s first studio album. The album was recorded live over the course of three days, and the result is the kind of warm, intuitive understanding that can only come from a band that has played and toured relentlessly with one another. An obvious conceptual comparison can be made to the fusion of country and roots rock that has inspired Neil Young over the course of his career, but the sound is fuller with a larger band and dueling male and female lead vocals on most tracks.
