Writing in her website's journal back in April, Campbell contrasted Ballad with a second album she'd worked on around the same time: "[The second] record is delicate and sparse. Inspired by magic, fertility, lunar cycles and leading ladies of folk-- Jean Ritchie and Shirley Collins. It is an even mixture of new compositions and old folk ballads. I imagine many of the songs as bewitched lullabies." Sounds like it'll fit right in with Devendra, Joanna and all those freaky forest children.
In April, that album's working title was Over the Wheat and the Barley, which has since become the less farm-evoking Milk White Sheets. Campbell and V2 currently plan a late 2006 release for Sheets, which contains help from ex/future(?) Smashing Pumpkin James Iha and Soup Dragons guitarist Jim McCullough. Stevie Nicks must have been busy.
