Josh Ritter - The Historical Conquests Of Josh Ritter

Over the clatter of piano and strum of an electric guitar that opens his fourth studio album, Josh Ritter leaps into rapid-fire lyrics that reference Joan of Arc, Calamity Jane and Florence Nightingale, all of whom seem to be struck together in the belly of a whale. As the follow-up to last year's critically acclaimed album the Animal Years, the Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter is his most adventurous, fresh, and freewheeling work to date. A first run, limited edition of the Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter features an exclusive 4-track bonus CD. Available while supplies last.
