Search - Mark Lanegan, Duke Garwood :: Black Pudding

Mark Lanegan has teamed up with multi-instrumentalist Duke Garwood to release Black Pudding.
Lanegan, never one to shy away from unique collaborations, has previously worked with Belle & Sebastian's Isobel Campbell, The Afghan Whigs' Greg Dulli and as a member of The Screaming Trees, Soulsavers and Queens of the Stone Age.
Lanegan and Garwood met a few years ago while playing on the same bill and Garwood was again a frequent opener on Lanegan's recent European tour.
Garwood has often been described in the UK press as Lanegan's spiritual cousin across the Atlantic waters. He is praised in his home country as a master bluesman, with The Quietus saying the combination of Garwood's murmured vocals and the sound he gets out of his guitar - which ranges from a rolling, loose finger-picking to shuddering howls of feedback - has a hypnotic effect and The Mirror dubbing him as London's leading exponent of the wheezy broke-down blues.
Black Pudding was recorded at Pink Duck Studios in Burbank, Calif. by Justin Smith (Tegan and Sara, The Hives) and mixed by his Queens of the Stone Age associate Alain Johannes.
