PieFacE Posted August 16, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) The Soulsavers album Designer recommended a few pages back is one of the best albums I've ever listened to it. Its a proper album. Needs to be listened to from start to finish. Atmospheric genius complemented perfectly by Mark Lanegans voice. Not sure who the female singer who covers a Mark Lanegan song on it but she has a beautiful voice. Took me quite a while for it to click, but it's a masterpiece. Can't believe it's not more well known. Thanks Designer. Edited August 16, 2015 by PieFacE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 In 1939 Elvis walked in to a recording studio, paid over 45 cents and recorded his own song, cut to vinyl as a present for his mum. Mrs Elvis didn't have a record player, so it wasn't until after the american civil war that Marconi invented one for her. On playing the record, it was discovered Elvis was a star, albeit without the legitimacy of a weekend tv show telephone vote. Now you too can be Elvish. Or at least put some of your fave MP3's on vinyl for that authentic crackly clicky sound. Vinylify 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted August 21, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) True Detective brought me here... It's the kind of darker Country music that i've always had a liking for. There's a track on there called The Bottomless Hole that is sublime. Edited August 21, 2015 by Designer1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I thought I had seen the handsome family, at the water rats in london, but a search seems that it was beatnik filmstars, not similar at all. Unsure where I got that I had seen them from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted August 21, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 21, 2015 You like a bit of Country don't you Seat? Any recommendations for similar sounding stuff to the Handsome Family? I don't have a very extensive knowledge of the genre but I love some of the darker stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a very extensive knowledge of the genre but I love some of the darker stuff. If anything their side of it isnt really what I listen to, you listen to Lambchop? Pernice Brothers (the world wont end, in particular), http://thehoneyants.co.uk/they are a UK band, seem pretty good. I am a little lost when it comes to americana type country music, I hear people talking about father john misty. Woefully ignorant about that stuff. Edited, as its playing now, its not what I expected, and its more like american music club to my ears, I recommend Mercury by them. Try also Cale Tysons Introducing. Edited again, thats some beautiful stuff that handsome family. Edited August 21, 2015 by Seat68 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father John Misty is fantastic but I wouldn't put him any near the alt/dark Country genre, he does a lovely line in cynically lyrical Indie-Folk. Worth checking out.
