Somewhere betwixt the brooding 10 gallon groan of
16 Horsepower, the baroque drawl of
Blue Ruin, the whiskey smell of
Bad Livers and
The Bad Seeds beef scented brand of western gothic hangs a wanted poster offering reward, dead or alive, for the atmospheric, detailed twang of
Long Dead Sevens. Oh death and grief and sorrow and murder shine like a tin star polished with the bullets of Nick Cliff’s baritone croon. Yet deep in the black heart that lies beneath banjo, fiddle, slide guitar, piano and derringer; somewhere near the unmarked grave of the coward Robert Ford; in a place that smells of salt peter and am-industrial ping, weirding wild west operetta. Yippee Ki-Yay!
Supervised by
Boris Mephisto Wilsdorf, Einstürzende Neubauten's producer.
