Mark
Lanegan-Greg Dulli Team Up The Gutter TwinsMark Lanegan has long been a personal favorite of mine. His vocal style has few peers, at least in this era. His musical soul exudes an incredible passion as well as some deep pain. The depth of his range can move you into whatever direction he wishes to take you. .  It's a haunting,
sometimes chilling feeling I get when I hear Lanegan's voice. His
duet with Layne Staley on "Long Gone
Day" can still give me goose bumps. Lanegan could use his
voice
to sing a child to sleep with a lullaby, just as easily as he uses it
to bring a grown man to crowd surf. . Mark Lanegan has released a half-dozen solo albums and even more with The Screaming Trees. He's lent his deep, moving voice to such projects as Mad Season, Queens of the Stone Age, The Twilight Singers, The Soulsavers, Isobel Campbell and now his latest collaboration with Greg Dulli as The Gutter Twins. .  The new CD,
"Saturnalia", is their first full-length album together and offers up
the best of Lanegan and the best of Greg Dulli. They are
currently on tour supporting their new project

Gossard's side project first release in
six years...
Brad is back: "Best Friends" Stone
Gossard's side project has been a long time
coming,
but it's getting closer to reality. Gossard formed this band in
1993, as a creative side-project to his
main group, Pearl Jam.
Their first project titled "Shame"
came out that year, but we waited four years
until their second, "Interiors"
was completed in 1997 and another five for their third, "Welcome To Discovery Park", in
2002. Alas, six years later, Gossard has finished mixing the band's fourth project to be called "Best Friends". It contains material recorded in 2004, at this point looking like eleven tracks. Brad recently acqured the rights to their previous releases, as well as those from Satchel and Malfunkshun, and will likely re-release those projects in some form, in the future. MORE |
