A CD reissue by Editions Mego of Bill Orcutt's acoustic hardcore blues stormer "A New Way To Pay Old Debts", previously released on Palilalia in 2009. For many, one of the highlights of recent years with its unique visionary take of solo guitar playing. In addtion to the orginal album this CD reissue contain 2 tracks from the High Waisted 7" (also previously relased on Palialia), as well as 4 unreleassed tracks.

How The Thing Sings, the latest LP by Bill Orcutt, was recorded Spring 2011 in the Liviing Room, San Francisco. Cut at 45 rpm at D+M, Berlin, August 2011. Yet another essential cracking new set of songs from Orcutt, following the highly-acclaimed New Way To Pay Old Debts, showcasing a further development of his unique visceral acoustic style. The language that Orcutt uses looks familiar at first glance, but cut deeper and its myriad of twisted audio thats both full on and drenched in melancholy, usually in the same gasping breath. While a lot of it is the classic face melting style, some quieter segments counter balance on the title track as well the epic closer ‘A Line From Ol’Man River’ and ‘Heaven Is Closed To Me Now’. Editions Mego.
