The Afghan Whigs ~ Gentlemen (1993)



Flisten. This album comes across as a near-masterpiece.

Although I had never heard it before this evening, I was sure that I had heard "When We Two Parted" prior to now. It turns out that I had; The New Amsterdams covered it on their first album, Never You Mind.

I prefer 1965 as it is very psychedelic, but yes, Gentlemen is nearly flawless.

Sinombre ~ Curves of Sirens (2004)

"This is an album all about build. Build up and tear down. Emotional ride to the climax build. Building a wall of harmonic guitar lines. Remarkably, the band pulls this off with their guitar builds... It is, in fact, this gift, this beauty of music that bands strive for. It is, in many ways, the musical ideal.."
