The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
mark is on the new moby reprise album, i'm no moby fan by any stretch but the renditions of these overplayed songs are pretty interesting and mark is great as usual.
likes rhythmic things that butt up against each other

I've been listening the Houston: Publishing demos 2002 and the material surprisingly strong. Only thing that puts me off is that Lanegan sounds on most of the songs like he is having a bad flu

The vocals are definitely hit or miss though I listen to the finished product fairly often. I agree with Lanegan that Randall Jamail did a fantastic job making a cohesive 'record' out of the material.
I feel like the Houston trip was bookended by two strong bouts of dopesickness as well, certainly not going to do his voice any favors.

One morning in March 2021 with the second wave of infections ripping through Ireland where he was newly resident, Mark Lanegan woke up breathless, fatigued beyond belief, his body burdened with a gigantic dose of Covid-19. Admitted to Kerry Hospital and initially given little hope of survival, Lanegan’s illness has him slipping in and out of a coma, unable to walk or function for several months and fearing for his life.
As his situation becomes more intolerable over the course of that bleakest of springs he is assaulted by nightmares, visions and regrets about a life lived on the edge of chaos and disorder. He is prompted to consider his predicament and how, in his sixth decade, his lifelong battle with mortality has led to this final banal encounter with a disease that has undone millions, when he has apparently been cheating death for his whole existence.
Written in vignettes of prose and poetry, DEVIL IN A COMA is a terrifying account of illness and the remorse that comes with it by an artist and writer with singular vision.

Im reading his memoir, and damn him and Lee Conner had a really difficult relationship. Seems Lee was impossible and well, Lanegan too. I often wondered why he hated the Trees so much, and here its the answer.
