Re: “Declaration of Our Descendants”
I thought the album was a tad overproduced. I'm making myself a Blitzen Trapper "Trappa Mix Tape". What can I say, I love it best when Eric Menteer gets full run of noisy guitar and they go all experimental.
Re: “Damaged Goods”
The band's general sense of gloom, doom and despair is often times amusing. Depeche Mode often carries that sense with them even at the top of the charts. I did notice Brent seemed subdued on this album in some ways and commented on that in my own column when I reviewed it. Bands do change, writing ebbs and flows, and compromises have to be made--gee sounds like any relationship. However, things aren't always what they seem. Having interviewed quite a few artists, including Brent, I have to say that these guys are amazingly transparent. It's refreshing. At one time you didn't know how dysfunctional a band was until it was over and they were writing their memoirs with acid pen. The article was very well written and I enjoyed it.
