| Feat. MARK LANEGAN & GREG DULLI. Pointedly not resting on the sonic laurels of their previous successes, this instead proves rootsy but baroque, handmade yet modernist, teeming w/ siren melodies that don't resolve. Eerie modal swirls trap the listener in each song's atmosphere; simultaneously evoking everything from Indian sitars to Appalachian folk & Deltagrit, the drones inadvertently create narcotic hooks |
