The Last Battle of The Civil Wars

Last updated on: July 26, 2013 at 9:45 am By Nick Rynerson

Joy Williams and John Paul White are one of the most surprisingly popular bands of the last few years. Undeniably talented songwriters whose sound has an almost Victorian, nostalgic aesthetic, the Civil Wars’ music is heartbreakingly melancholy and romantic. And that sound won them unexpected popularity, Grammys, and critical acclaim. However sad their music might be, no one expected the full-fledged hiatus and tour cancellation following their success due to “irreconcilable differences.” But, you know, it happens. Bands split up... Read more

A new VICE Magazine piece describes the plight of American nuns in some detail, focusing on a handful of elderly sisters who live together in a nursing home after the shuttering of their nearby convents. Their unhappy story is important for those who wonder about the future of religious orders in the U.S. Read more
