Got Ballad of the Broken Seas in the mail on Friday.

Good shit. A couple of the songs seem a little out of character (upbeat) for Lanegan, but mostly I dig it. My wife, on the other hand, is creeped out by it. She likes Lanegan, and especially likes his duets with female singers (Come to Me is probably her favorite song of his), but she says Isobel Campbell sounds too much like a little girl which makes Mark sound like some creepy old pedophile trying to get into her pants.

Which I can actually kind of see. But for some reason, it doesn't really bother me.

What does that say about me?

Anyway. Good stuff.

And the new Neko Case, Fox Confessor Brings the Flood, is absolutely stunning, BTW. If you're wanting something a bit different - alt country crooner blues - check out her shit. Beautiful stuff:

I was listening to it all last week, and I love it. It's defintely not a Mark Lanegan album. I think it's really different for him and I think he's trying to get into the groove of the album.

I can se what your wife is saying, I've thought the same.

Honeychild What Can I Do is my fave...
I almost feel that song reflects Isobel and Marks relationship.(album wise)
