Whole New Mess It's a re-recording album by American singer-songwriter Angel Olsen, released on August 28, 2020 on Jagjaguwar.

[3] Recorded by Olsen and engineer Michael Harris in a converted church, the album features tracks from her 2019 album, All Mirrors, arranged in a more intimate style, featuring the unreleased tracks "Whole New Mess" and "Waving, Smilling" which were released as singles.

[3] Whole New Mess was recorded over ten days in October 2018 with engineers Michael Harris and Nicholas Wilbur.

The pair worked in isolation in Anacortes, Washington, notable as the hometown of independent musician Phil Elverum, recording in a converted Catholic church.

I could have recorded them at home and kept them as demos, but I knew Michael [Harris] was someone I could be depressed in front of, who would help me to explore it in different ways.
