Awesome singing.

Guys, especially you Tom Waits fans, come the hell on ... Mark freakin' Lanegan!
Mark Lanegan's voice is what happens when you take fifteen cartons of cigarettes, soak them in a couple gallons of bourbon, run the mixture through a filter of every addictive substance known to man, and pour it into a hundred-year-old bottle that used to hold pure distilled love but went utterly dry 78 years ago and has nothing but crusty residue left. The man is a demigod.
I'll Yousendit a file onto this thread to show you people once I'm on a computer that holds the right songs.
I wouldn't be doing this but everyone seems to be all over Tom Waits and nobody's giving Lanegan any credit. This is criminal.
Teh_GAE:
Yeah, I like Mark Lanegan as much as I like Tom Waits. Ish.
I don't have enough "money" to "buy" all these artists songs.

Hell Yeah! And Tori Amos.

while I admit that I have never listened to any of Mark Lagenan's work, the main thing about Tom Waits that makes his music so enthralling is how well the atmosphere created by his raspy voice and his crude insturments melds with his lyrics; I think it presents a very unique result, an auditory experience that goes beyond the boundaries of most music. Whether or not Mark Lagenan's voice is any more beautiful or raspy, I still have an instilled fondness for waits and the aura that he creates.

Merk Lanegan is ace. Especially when paired with Isobel Campbell, whose voice is probably the opposite extreme.
