While the two outer instrumentals are undeniably moving, this record is definitely Mark Lanegan's. There is no voice quite like his - and none that leaves the same impact.

Lanegan’s presence has taken their brooding, dark blend of electronica and grounded it firmly in a dark patch of earth.

The Quietus
The real moment of triumph is the superb re-imagining of former Byrd Gene Clark's 'Some Misunderstanding'. Replacing the cosmic American flavourings of the original with a more earth-bound and gritty sensibility, only the hardest of hearts can remain unmoved when Lanegan intones, “We all need a fix at a time like this/But doesn't it feel good to stay alive”

Too often its soundtrack atmosphere is too thick, its arrangements as obvious as a painted backdrop
