About this album

Axxess & Ace is a stark, emotionally direct Songs: Ohia album that deepened Jason Molina’s reputation for raw indie-folk songwriting. Released in 1999, it finds him refining the intimate, cracked voice and unadorned arrangements that made his early work so affecting, balancing folk-rock restraint with the grit of indie rock. Songs such as Hot Black Silk and Love & Work show his gift for turning weary detail into bruised, memorable melody. The record helped establish Molina as one of the defining American songwriters of his generation, laying important groundwork for the acclaimed work that followed.
