On his latest album, however, he takes influence not only from American folk music but from British folk as well.<\/p>\n<p>Notable tracks include \u201cNew Whaling\u201d, \u201cBlack Captain\u201d and \u201cWe are Unhappy.\u201d These tunes are full of intricately played acoustic guitar passages and a desperate sense of longing for the American Dream. Songs for which any fan of folk is sure to enjoy. This just proves that after all these years, Billy\u2019s work still stands up with the best of his contemporaries. If you\u2019re a big fan of artists like Iron &amp; Wine and you\u2019ve neglected to listen to Bonnie Prince Billy, than you could do much worse for a starting place than \u201cWolfroy Goes to Town.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reviewed by:<\/strong> Jake Waters on October 29th, 2011<\/p>\n<p><strong>RIYL:<\/strong> Iron &amp; Wine<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended Tracks:<\/strong> 2, 5, 6, 9<\/p>\n<p><strong>FCC Warning:<\/strong> 4, 8<\/p>\n<p><strong>Label:<\/strong> Drag City<\/p>\n<p><strong>Release Date:<\/strong> October 4th, 2011<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Neo-Folk that hits you where you need it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":4164,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3230,181],"tags":[414,413],"class_list":["post-4163","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-music-rotation","category-rock-rotation","tag-bonnie-prince-billy","tag-jake-waters"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/5199vplllZL._SL500_AA280_.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4163","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4163"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4163\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4164"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4163"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4163"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4163"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
