They're old-fashioned, but in the best sense: they're in it for the long haul, which the superb Warpaint proves beyond a shadow of a doubt.
-
Never in 24 years have The Black Crowes either changed their tune or sounded contrived, and they’re getting better all the time in their dependably unfashionable way.
-
Warpaint mines the same Allmans-to-Zappa synthesis of influences that's been the Crowes' stock in trade but finds the group fortified by sharp songwriting and lace-tight, live-sounding performances.
-
Warpaint starts off strong--the first third of the album reveals some of the best range and craft of the band's career--but songs like 'We Who See the Deep' are just too unfocused to be memorable.
-
Though no song stands out as particularly remarkable, Warpaint drips steady consistency.
-
It's not a huge departure for the Southern songbirds but proves them to be magisterial practitioners of the dark blues-rock arts.
-
Warpaint does, however, fall somewhat short of the triumphant comeback The Black Crowes set their 10-gallons at.

DamianMar 14, 2008What a bore. There was nothing that close to what 10 gallons offered. Maxim's "educational guess" was just that and was very much prophet-like.
