dirty three: towards the low sun

Dirty Three return 7 years since their album, & "Toward The Low Sun" is a true humdinger. Warren Ellis (GRINDERMAN, NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS) is always sawing away at something on the violin that kind of tightens our chest & gives us that ol' thousand-yard stare; Mick Turner (FUNGUS BRAINS, TREN BROTHERS) wanders with hollow-bodied guitar from abstract & dreamy to punishing hard chord rock in the space of a breath, never sacrificing a sense of the awesome along the path; then there's Jim White (CAT POWER, NINA NASTASIA, BONNIE PRINCE BILLY). He's doing something that no one else does back there. Plus, he's drumming!
