YTI⅃AƎЯ Bill Callahan SKU: DC859 Barcode: 0781484085911 32.00 £32.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Drag City Released Date: 24th February 2023 Buying Format: 2LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info “And we’re coming out of dreams / And we’re coming back to dreams,” is the first thing you hear Bill say as you remake your acquaintance on ‘YTI⅃AƎЯ’. Right out the gate, he’s standing in two places at once: meeting up with old friends behind the scenes and encountering them on the record, finding himself coming round the bend and then again as someone else on down the line. Like the character actor he played on ‘Gold Record’, writing stories about other people, telling jokes about everyone, and in singing them, becoming the songs. “You do what you’ve got to do / To see the picture,” Bill’s got a full band sound going on this one, with him and Matt Kinsey on guitars, Emmett Kelly on bass and backing vocals, Sarah Ann Phillips on B3, piano and backing vocals and Jim White on drums. Jim and Matt sing on one song too, and some other singers come in too. Bill plays some synth here and there, and Carl Smith drifts in and out of the picture with his contra alto clarinet, as do Mike St. Clair and Derek Phelps on brass. Somehow, in between them all, you might think you hear the distant sound of a steel guitar. And you might – but you might not, too. In this company, Bill continues his journey, tunnelling underneath the weathered exterior of what seems to be and into the more nuanced life everything takes on in the dark. With Bill’s voice making the extraordinary leaps and bounds that measure the lives of the songs, the band follow him through passages that seem to invent themselves; other times playing with deeply soulful grooves and / or desperate intensity, as these moments come and go. There’s nothing they can’t do. “I wrote this song in five and forever / I’m writing it right now,” Bill sings on ‘Natural Information’ – an admission of the everyday alchemy he’s forever trafficking in. Time passes, triangulating the encounters that went into any one record with two out of any three others, all of it made flesh, new constitution, in our stereo speakers. If every album is its own life, it stands to reason that they’re invariably passing in the night. Cascading images flowing from the stream of consciousness. Turning like pages from the journal, unspeakably personal, then suddenly become tall tales, like a book pulled off the shelf, completely unbound. Headlines flow through. Mirror images, mirthful ones. Bill’s lyrics strain at the lines on the page, not content to separate the printing of the fact from the myth or be confined to ink on paper. “I realize now that dreams are real.” On ‘YTI⅃AƎЯ’’s inner sleeve, alongside his lyrics, Bill celebrates the “exhilaration and dread” of cover artist Paul Ryan’s paintings. Paul’s another one met up with again down the road, his indelible cover imagery on ‘Apocalypse’ and ‘Dream River’ now an axis of meaning in the Callahanian world – and in the bright colours found in these new images, a parallel to Bill’s recognitions here. “A breath of exquisite air as we come up from drowning” sounds like the desired hope for those hearing the songs of ‘YTI⅃AƎЯ’.
