Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

After coming into his own as a solo artist with 1994's wistfully sad and musically assured Whiskey for the Holy Ghost, ex-Screaming Trees vocalist Mark Lanegan has let his work stagnate somewhat. Scraps at Midnight and the cover-song collection I'll Take Care of You were both excellent efforts, but lacked the punch of Whiskey, which suggested that a new voice was emerging from the ashes of an overlooked band's lamentable demise. This fifth solo effort, however, shows flashes of another growth spurt. Lanegan has never written anything as gentle and compositionally mature as "Kimiko's Dream House," for instance, nor has any of his records ever had this level of consistency, from bourbon-soaked blues to haunted, late-night roots rock. Furthermore, his band, featuring ex-Dinosaur Jr. member Mike Johnson on guitar and Ben Shepherd from the late, great Soundgarden on bass, has solidified, effortlessly veering between eerie soundscapes and somber evocations that form perfect backdrops for Lanegan's familiar smoky growl. Next time you feel like having a late-night chat with a friend named Jack Daniels, let this play in the background as a conversation starter, then draw your own conclusions about how affecting and perceptive Lanegan's work has become. --Matthew Cooke

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST CD I'VE HEARD IN YEARS, August 29, 2003
There have been a couple of instances where I've almost bought this CD but somehow doubted it being anywhere near as good as WHISKEY FOR THE HOLY GHOST. After listening to the new QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE and the before mentioned Lanegan release I felt inclined to check this album out. The first two songs especially NO EASY ACTION; a traveling gypsy caravan moving through rolling hills of gold in blood red sun. Amazing. I felt like the music was getting me high. You can really see the range in this guy's voice on this song which is on some of his previous works a bit to subdued. The backing band of musicians is different from song to song but mainly keeps Mike Johnson as his right hand man at guitar (whom plays on, I think, every other Lanegan album) whom plays great but just enough so that the vocals shine through. Besides Johnson there are many other competent musicians making Lanegan's lyrics of barren, melancholy imagery and landscapes appear tangible in the mind of the listener. The music is so atmospheric he reminds me alot of Tom Waits, not neccessarily in musical style but the approach with very thick, layered sounds and instruments that make you feel as you are in the world of the musician. Also, the obvious parallel in the raspy vocals the two singers share There is an immense depth of feeling created by the music alone as can be heard in the instrumental piece BLUES FOR D. The whole album is beautiful and shifts mainly from folk/rhythm-and-blues songs. Two of my friends bought this album shortly after hearing a few of the songs through my copy of the album. If you like some of the more serious sounding Tom Waits material or have any of Lanegan's other material this is a must have.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of my masters of male tought, August 23, 2004
By J. H. Infante (Guadalajara, Ja, Mex) - See all my reviews
Mark Lanegan is a man full of wisdom, listening to him you can put your ideas in perspective if your girlfriend dumped you Ha!, can provide to you of new ways to see life, you can mature new philosophies, the man has a fascinating personality, cool , easy, careless about stupid matters, listen "dont forget me" , listen "Kimikos dream house" "low" "she done too mouch" with that cool, rough and calm voice the man has, that invites you to serenity , youll be a whole new man after listen to him is therapeutic

5.0 out of 5 stars observer, September 1, 2002
By A Customer
Sadly, not enough people will be blessed to have a listen to this record. Then again, sometimes that which is sought out is better than that which is forcefed to us over the airwaves and television sets. This is certainly the case here. Go find this album and become immersed in a world of whiskey stained reflection and melencholy. This is just one of those albums that you feel inside. Upon listening, you soon realize this is more than just pre-fabricated noise. Mark lanegan is definatly a feelings man. Sit back, have a smoke, grab onto your favorite poison and relax. It doesnt get much better than this.
