MARK LANEGAN Blues Funeral (2012 UK issue 12-track double LP pressed on Dark Green Heavyweight Vinyl with guest appearances from Alain Johannes Jack Irons Greg Dulli & Josh Homme and including the singles The Gravediggers Song and Harborview Hospital. Complete with an MP3 download code and individual lyric inners both vinyl discs are in BRAND NEW condition housed in the gatefold picture sleeve which retains its title-stickered opened shrinkwrap CAD3202) Review Like a fleeing convict whose survival demands constant movement, Mark Lanegan has lent his life-scarred blues-rock growl to various causes in recent years. But none of his hired-gun gigsIsobel Campbell, Greg Dulli, Soulsaversholds a candle to his first solo album since 2004s Bubblegum. Blues Funeral deepens his pitch while exhibiting a range and grace beyond his deaths-head profile: you wouldnt mistake it for anyone else, but its intoxicating potency and surprise swerves elude concerns that his outlaw front might calcify in clich. The Gravediggers Song packs pile-driving proof that hes more than anyones side-man. Wise to the shadow his walking-dead reputation casts before him, Lanegan sings of "piranha teeth" bared, invoking images of a vampire (or ex-junkie) driven by dark appetites. His muscular band size up to his voice with the required fearlessness Dulli and Queens of the Stone Ages Alain Johannes and Josh Homme number among the powerhouse posse thickening the albums air. The subsequent heart-stopping plummet into Bleeding Muddy Waters soul-sick dirge typifies the high-drama rollercoaster sequencing here: vertiginous highs, queasy comedowns. Detours to the book of hard-living clichs ("these tears are liquor") occur but Lanegan also conjures stop-you-dead images of an evocative, lived-in power ("a mountain of dust that burns in your mouth"). Phantasmagoria Blues and St Louis Elegy haunt familiar turfwracked confessional and high-plains howler respectivelybut he sells them with the conviction and character he invested in his magisterial 1999 covers set, Ill Take Care of You. And the double-takers On Ode to Sad Disco, Lanegan essays gliding electro-pop, a jaw-dropping move executed with jaw-dropping assurance on Harborview Hospital, his vocal verges on rueful ("All around this place / I was a sad disgrace"), a rarity for a man not renowned for looking back. Both take his voices weathered grace to fresh heights, as does the lysergic, synth-laced psychedelia of the closing Tiny Grain of Truth, where Lanegan casts himself as a "firewalker neon priest junky doctor shadow king", drifting into the "city at night". Whichever Lanegan you prefer, his is a mighty voice of formidably expressive multitudes, here given room to roam, and to roar. --Kevin Harley This link will take you offin a new window Shipping
