{"product_id":"powder-burns","title":"Powder Burns","description":"Amazon.com\n\nRecorded in New Orleans a few months after Katrina devastated it, generators at the ready to supply electricity when the power failed, Powder Burns is former Afghan Whigs frontdude Greg Dulli's finest work in a decade. It's widely and wisely been hailed as the most solid Twilight Singers release to date, as it combines the sultry and hazy lounge air of the first three Singers records with the scorched earth intensity of the Whigs. Fancy guests abound--Ani DiFranco, Joseph Arthur, former A.W. bassist John Curley--but the focus rarely strays from Dulli's sex-soaked, melodramatic croon. \"I Wish I Was\" sounds like a great lost Chocolate Genius song until the bombastic chorus kicks in. There are dozens of elements here--super multi-tracked choruses, Beatles-referring hooks, ridonculously classic rock guitar solos, vaguely dance-y drum programming, rousing piano lines, etc.--that would sound poseur-y or played out most anywhere else. But on Powder Burns, they just sound like damn good music. --Mike McGonigal\n\nProduct Description\n\nThe return of The Twilight Singers, POWDER BURN featuring Greg Dulli (the Afghan Whigs), continues the amazing creative growth, following the epic 2003 album BLACKBERRY BELLE.\n\nAbout the Artist\n\nGreg Dulli – known and loved by many as the leader of pioneering alt-rockers afghan whigs – has recorded another album (his fourth) under the celebrated twilight singers’ moniker; and it’s a veritable masterpiece.\nDulli has long been appreciated as a unique voice. His lyrics are well-told personal yarns delivered with a ravenous intensity—which isn’t to say that Dulli doesn’t know how to write a great rock n’ roll tune. As the New York Times was spurred to comment \"Mr. Dulli is finally a guy who simply knows how to make music that feels good in the ear\".\nWith every new recording Dulli cements his place as a national musical treasure, consistently turning out great albums bursting with a soulfulness too often missing from ‘rock’ records. Clearly enjoying the freedom allowed by the twilight singers’ ever revolving lineup, Dulli has pulled together an eclectic and viciously gifted lot for powder burns. Joseph Arthur, Ani DiFranco and Scott Bennett appear on the record, along with a guest spot from fellow afghan whig, bassist John Curley.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000EWBMVA\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B000EWBMVA.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:The Twilight Singers\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
