A song that has no end...

I haven't listened to any new releases from Bonnie "Prince" Billy (Will Oldham) for almost a year now and decided to Google on what's he up to these days.  Prolific musician that he is, it is impossible to keep up with him. There’s loads of amazing new stuff (can’t resist– amazing new SHIT!!) he has done in the last year or so.

To start with, I was stunned by his new version of “I see a darkness” on his new EP (of his own covers – Now here’s my plan [Jul 2012])

Accompanying the EP is a new book of interview: Will Oldham on Bonnie “Prince” Billy (just made a ‘recommendation’ to my local library).

 Among various other things (bunch of albums – allmusic lists three in 2012, a new perfume brand - Eau de Will Oldham, a coffee bean line[2011] etc.), for Record store day 2012 he released a special condom, to carry your most precious limited-edition Record Store Day "release”.
 

Phew. Also added to my DVD rental queue – This must be the place [2011] starring Sean Penn and Frances McDormand. Will Oldham worked with David Byrne of the Talking Heads for soundtrack and score for this movie (called themselves as The Pieces of Shit), which tells a story of an aging goth rock star.

 

Perhaps that’s enough for 2012.
Update 07/13: This must be the place is an awesome movie!!
