Breaking through the dirt and shooting upward into our atmosphere is a new variety of exotic Bonnie Prince Billy plant. Stronger. Stinkier. It blooms in low light and cold but thrives in the sun as well, showing enticing spots and eating small creatures as they wander into its jaws. They had it coming, they were weakand youre next! Beware.
Though Beware shares spit with its immediate predecessor released this past summer, Lie Down in the Light, it's reach is longer and stronger, more grandiose. Where fiddle and steel contribute their rustic timbre alongside guitars and voices, a thickening thud of low tone rolls beneath, giving the record a bottom thats fun to watch bounce in new clothes. This indensifies the air and heralds Beware as Bonnys biggest, most ambitious record to date yea, bigger and more ambitious than even The Letting Go! A listen or two through and you too may conclude that this could also be the great Bonnie Prince Billy contempo-country record though, as always, the Prince goes his own special way, even when climbing the charts with brawny arms and classic titles like "I Dont Belong to Anyone, You Cant Hurt Me Now, and I Am Goodbye.

It is more difficult to smash a prejudice than an atom. Greetings from Turkey.

Just place the prejudices into the Large Headon Collider and if two prejudices collide presto blasto you have open-mindedness as simple as that. The God particle opens to openness like a flower bud to the sun...
