The Gutter Twins: “Live With Me”
So, where to start? Last year, I certainly wouldn’t have expected to care about either this act or this show, but once I got hold of their record, well, there is was. I couldn’t get enough. I’ve been an on-and-off fan of Mark Lanegan for a while (Screaming Trees and Queens of the Stone Age, mostly yes; anything with his name on the front of the record, mostly no), but Greg Dulli and his various projects have always left me cold. Something about the collaboration just clicks incredibly well for me.
You may notice that this clip is extremely dark, despite a bit of lightening-up in post-processing. In addition ot the general lack of stage lighting, there was a “no flash photography” sign on the door, which leads me to think somebody in the band is either light-sensitive or just really likes hanging around in the dark. On top of that, I was probably standing a bit too close to the stage and caught a lot of distortion. Though, their sound is so bass-heavy — Lanegan’s voice alone is probably enough to cause some fuzz at the bottom end of the spectrum — that it may not have mattered how far back I was.
This tune is a cover of a Massive Attack song that first appeared on a Twilight Singers EP with Lanegan doing a guest appearance. They turn into a kind of down-tempo rock assault that fits in surprisingly well with the rest of their set. I wouldn’t have expected a couple of early 90’s Sub Pop survivors to do that kind of thing with a Massive Attack song, but there you go.
