About

Angel Olsen has made great strides between the homespun folk of 2012’s <i>Half Way Home</i> and the bold, noir-ish indie rock of 2016’s <i>MY WOMAN</i>, a journey documented on the rarities collection <i>Phases</i>. Ranging from compilation tracks (the moody “Fly on Your Wall”) to studio outtakes (the <i>MY WOMAN</i>–era “Special”), hushed (“May as Well”) to howling (the Roy Orbison garage rock of “Sweet Dreams”), the music here is a testament not just to Olsen’s range but her evolution as a songwriter, all anchored by her fluttering—but powerful—voice.
