SONGS: OHIA
Songs: Ohia was one man -- Jason Molina -- a tenor guitar-wielding songwriter from the shores of Lake Erie. Critics often compared Songs: Ohia to Palace/Will Oldham, and while sonically the comparison is valid (especially in Molina's voice), Molina's ardent, soul-searching lyrics were more aptly compared to Neil Young or Leonard Cohen. Molina's early work as Songs: Ohia was often spare and skeletal, in particular on 1999's Axxess & Ace and 2000's The Lioness, where the music reflected the dark themes of the lyrics. Later work under the group's banner, such as 2002's Didn't It Rain and 2003's Magnolia Electric Co., saw Molina embracing a more full-bodied musical statement with a strong country influence, though his lyrics were as dour and personal as ever.

Subdued and somber, Ghost Tropic could make for the perfect soundtrack to a midnight walk along a deserted street. At its center is Jason Molina's voice, beautiful and frail, surrounded variously (though rarely at the same time) by sparse guitar, keyboards, and percussion...(AllMusic)
