Wolfroy Goes to Town is a studio album by Will Oldham. It was released under the name Bonnie "Prince" Billy on Drag City in 2011. Critical response to Wolfroy Goes to Town was generally positive.
Bonnie Prince Billy, records most prolifically; prior to this album he released a number of singles that aren’t included her. His music remains a pure sound, truer to the spirit of old folk, country, and blues recordings than nearly all other performers in the 21st century. Oldham isn’t afraid of silence, of a dear quiet that makes his music an unsettling affair. No Match is a timeless country ballad, supported with sweet harmony vocals.
This album finds him in fine form, his voice authoritative and nimble on the modern waltz of "No Match" and tastefully going to the rafters over blazing guitars on "Cows. The album introduced audiences to the commanding vocals of the young Angel Olsen, and their duet on the midnight blues of "New Tibet" is the sound of the alt-country torch being passed. Wolfroy Goes to Town Bonnie "Prince" Billy. Will Oldham has been recording whiskey-hued Americana folk tunes since 1993, somehow always placing himself right at the fulcrum of timeless and contemporary. This album finds him in fine form, his voice authoritative and nimble on the modern waltz of "No Match" and tastefully going to the rafters over blazing guitars on "Cows.
The stark landscape of Will Oldham's album is the musical equivalent of King Lear's blasted heath (indeed, in "New Whaling" the protagonist is a monarch of sorts laid low by his own urges). Divine betrayal is a salient factor: "Stop all the moaning and bemoaning of fate/ God isn't listening, or else it's too late," Oldham scolds in "Time To Be Clear", which has a lonely grace and simplicity akin to Leonard Cohen. The litany of hopelessness that is "We Are Unhappy" has "emptiness showing God's cruelty deployed".
