Description

2014, Mark Lanegan's back and his chief compositional tool on PHANTOM RADIO was his phone - specifically an app called ´Funk Box`. The album grew organically from these synthetic roots, taking in Mark's ongoing love of Krautrock and also an ´80s new wave show on Sirius satellite radio, his favoured aural companion as he drives around Los Angeles. Lanegan's generous collaborative spirit sees him deliver an excellent co-write with British guitarist Duke Garwood, with whom he made last year's dustbowl-desolate BLACK PUDDING, and who now offers the music for ,,I Am The Wolf", a Lanegan signature tune. Mark's favourite song on the album, meanwhile, is ,,Torn Red Heart", an intensely tender meditation for a broken heart that's like The Velvet Underground's ,,Pale Blue Eyes" orchestrated by Angelo Badalamenti. He also has a special mention for ,,Floor Of The Ocean", which balances sheer catchiness with a deceptively bleak lyrical reflection on a life lived on the hard shoulder.
