M. Ward has made taking old songs and making them new his own. The song "Fisher of Men" starts off with Johnny Cash song until a string arrangement kicks in. Another song called "Rave On" is a Buddy Holly song with a little bit of 60's and Sonic Youth put in the mix. Ward the likes the unusual pairings in his arrangements. He worked with artists like Neko Case, My Morning Jacket, Cat Power, and Bright Eyes.
