[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]“Primitive Girl” by M. Ward // A Wasteland Companion (2012)
I never turn away a chance to hear M. Ward perform solo, be it on record or on stage. The man draws plenty of talented individuals to him for collaboration, but for me, the good stuff lies on his solo material. Luckily, he’s back doing the solo thing on the forthcoming Merge Records release, A Wasteland Companion. The first taste is a driving, folk pop jam called “Primitive Girl”. It’s got a bit of a mid-80’s Springsteen vibe (big harmonies, twinkling piano lines, and driving rhythms) mixed in with a bit of a Summer Teeth-era Wilco sound, but then again, it’s all M. Ward. Thankfully this time without the Monsters of Folk or Zooey Deschanel around to hog up all the spotlight.

Nujood Ali was ten when she fled her abusive, much older husband and took a taxi to the courthouse in Sanaa, Yemen. The girl’s courageous act—and the landmark legal battle that ensued—turned her into an international heroine for women’s rights. Now divorced, she is back home with her family and attending school again.

When I die, my money’s not gonna come with me. My movies will live on - for people to judge what I was as a person. I just want to stay curious.
