Matt Sweeney & Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy have reawakened their 2005 project ‘Superwolf’ under the name ‘Superwolves’. Matt Sweeny, known as leader of US band Chavez, wrote guitar parts and Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy, AKA Will Oldham, wrote lyrics. The pair then met up to craft the songs. ‘Superwolves’ is a more uptempo affair than its predecessor with inspiration being taken from the world of African rock music.
As far as this record, as in when and how it came together, the two man crew started working on it five years ago. The first actual session, however, went down about a year ago at Brooklyn’s Strange Weather and the next took place at the Butcher Shoppe in Nashville. Sweeney oversaw the mixing of the Brooklyn sessions with Oldham overseeing the Nashville mixes. On the album, Sweeney sings harmonies along, with, and around his favorite singer, and plays all electric, acoustic, and bass guitars, joined in places by David Ferguson on stand-up bass, Mike Coltun on electric bass, Mdou Moctar on electric lead, Ahmoudou Madassane on rhythm guitar, Souleyman Ibrahim, Ryan Sawyer and Peter Townsend on drums and Mike Rojas on keys. The Bonnie ‘Prince’ sings. Does he ever. And Superwolves rules over all.
