Limited Edition Picture Disc Double Vinyl LP!
What really stands out about The Lonesome Crowded West is this journey it takes you on. Less like a concept album and more like a road trip soundtrack. It meanders between feelings of grinding teeth and soothing calm, love and heartache, hope and despair, with the mood and emotion shifting like tumbleweeds on a gusty day. The words really make you think, with riddle-like complexity at times. There's an endearing honesty and authenticity inherent to this album that doesn't exist in a lot of popular music. It's similar to beautifully framed art, sculpture or metalwork that is obviously handmade, due to the fact that it exhibits noticeable imperfections. Perfectly imperfect: The Lonesome Crowded West. Released in 1997, this 2LP set is available on limited edition picture disc vinyl.
Give this album a listen and you can be sure that you will be singing the rambling, catchy...vocals in no time. If you dig indie rock at its very best, go pick this album up.
