So, this is the opener from the 'It's Not How Far You Fall, It's The Way You Land' album and it's a swelling great gospel twist on REM's equally flooring 'Country Feedback'. The album is pretty much a Mark Lanegan (ex-Screaming Trees) solo work (he does most of the vocals) with producers Rich Machin and Ian Glover occasionally wheeling in the likes of Bonnie Prince Billy and the singer out of Doves. And it's magnificent. Stately and doomy and a little bit Spiritualised and a fuck of a lot Death In Vegas' 'The Contino Sessions'. Y'know - sozzled and tear-streaked, down but far from out, doomy but not gloomy. It's a wallow thing...
