Sep 19, 2013The man loves TOM WAITS so do I and I LOVE this album.
More produced and fuller than his amazing debut there's still a really nice experimentation and home-made feel I can really hear PJ Harvey in there too which goes beautifully with his other influences Beefheart, Dylan and I'm guessing Stax soul if you love any of these buy it it's a charmer

MojoOct 11, 2013A masterful song cycle of raw confessionals, ghostly R&B and gritty stompers, all channelled via intense vocals that razor and soothe. [Nov 2013, p.94]
