Mark Lanegan : Gargoyle

While sharing roots with its two predecessors, on ‘Gargoyle’ there’s a significant up-shift in the swaggering powerlode of such keynote songs as ‘Nocturne’ and ‘Beehive’, while the lyrics’ tonal palette is more varied. The album title comes from a lyric in ‘Blue Blue Sea’ – ‘Gargoyle perched on gothic spire’ – and was chosen for its hint of self-deprecation. ‘I’m most proud of the songs that are atypical to stuff that I’ve done in the past’ says Mark. ‘So I really like ‘Old Swan’, because it’s an expression of positivity, which is completely anti-anything I’ve done before!’
