Im talking his solo stuff. I mean granted Screaming Trees is and will always be on of my fav bands, but his solo stuff equals genius. Whther it be Whiskey for the Holy Ghost or his latest Bubblegum. I just think hes a incredible singer/artist. And I wish he was still with Queen of the Stone Age.

    i saw mark lanegan october 2004 at the gaelic club in sydney. and i swear the man did not move during the entire set. not that it affected the music or my appreciation of his voice but i'd never seen anything quite so still on stage. god it was so sweet to be there.

    massive ML fan. i got to talk with him for about an hour before one of his shows in SD (casbah, sep 2004). most humble, down to earth guy. definitley a guy that puts music before anything...well, heroine and cigarettes sometimes before the music, but other than that, ya know...

    whiskey for the holy ghost
    field songs
    bubblegum

    amazing albums.

    Quite honestly, I haven't checked out his solo stuff yet. I will soon, though. I love Screaming Trees, so I'm not sure why I never gave it a try.

    I saw him in the bathroom at a Queens show smoking 2 cigs at once. Is that necessary? :D

    For a guy who washes down razorblades with gasoline, yeah it's necessary.

    mark lanegan is a great singer, and his solo stuff is as easily as good as the trees
  • soundgrungersoundgrunger Posts: 218
    mark lanegan fan over here! LOVE his solo stuff. i wish he was still with qotsa too.
    saw him live and i agree with catefrances, he didn't move the entire time! it is kinda strage, but doesn't take anything away from the show or his music. love that voice..

    Not a fan yet. But I'm listening to Whiskey fot the Holy Ghost and Bubblegum the last 2 weeks. And it's a great musician, great voice and great music. Are there any other great albums of Mark Lanegan???

    The Winding Sheet is a classic.
    All of them are brilliant, really liking Ballard of the Broken Seas with Isobelle Campbell.:)

    Thank you,

    The Winding Sheet and Ballard of the Broken Seas...I will see if I can find these classics :)

    Yes I really like Mark Lanegan. His chilled out style is so far removed from the music I usually like, metal and heavy rock so it makes a nice change to put on one of his cd's.

    The Winding Sheet was his debut solo album featuring Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic on Down In The Dark and the cover of Where Did You Sleep Last Night, this album is just amazing from start to finish.

    Ballard Of The Broken Seas is very country and western and very chilled like all his albums.:)

    I was worried when I got Ballad of the Broken Seas becasue I wasn't sure if having Isobel Campbell on there would dilute the album too much but it might be the best album I've heard this year. I really like the Trees but his solo stuff is just amazing.

    Really lovin Rambling Man and The Circus Is Leaving Town, they're the stand out tracks for me but it really is a solid album not a bad song on it.:)
