Trouble is probably my fav. A great, very relaxing album. HUGE Lanegan fan here by the way. Saw the Gutter Twins in DC back in March and they kicked major ass. The 30 seconds he did of Shadow of the Season alone was worth the price of admission.....
I haven't received mine yet but from what I have heard most people like it more than Ballad. Good to hear it sounds a little more like Lanegan. I liked Ballad but it seemed a little akward to me. Maybe just b/c its different than what we normally hear from him. But, I love his voice so I don't care if he's singing Mary Had A Little Lamb. I'm still going to listen and enjoy it.
I've had two listens so far and have been a lil disappointed, whereas with Ballad I enjoyed it immediatly only later coming to recognize its flaws. Perhaps this is just gonna be a grower on me, my favourite Lanegan albums have been.
Took to it more than BOTBS, on first impression, BOTBS did grow on me though, but I feel this one sounds like others have said a lot more suited to Lanegans own style and as a result feels more comfortable from the get go.:)
Awesome record, you know its a good year for music if you have two solid releases featuring Lanegans beautiful vocals.:)
True! I really hope he starts work on a new solo album too after the Saturnalia tour. Unfortunately it appears the same cannot be said for Mr. Cornell after a very small impression of his new album.
