La gran bruja y poetisa del rock underground Lydia Lunch (ahora residente en Barcelona) y el músico británico Cypress Grove (guitarrista y compositor muy unido a Jeffrey Lee Pierce y artífice de ese par de álbumes estupendos en el que varios luminarias y amigos del ex-Gun Club grababan algunas de sus composiciones inéditas) llevan un tiempo editando juntos algunas estupendas canciones recopiladas en este 'A Fistful Of Desert Blues' (publicado oficialmente el Mayo pasado) en el que interpretan lo que suena a blues pre-bélico y (como el título indica) a baladas manchadas de polvo del desierto, pero con ese toque personal del que sólo ellos son capaces. Magnífico. Y atentos si viene la oportunidad, porque están de gira con integrantes de Gallon Drunk.
That great witch and underground rock poet Lydia Lunch and British musician Cypress Grove (guitarist and composer very attached to Jeffrey Lee Pierce and responsible of that pair of great albums in which some luminaries and friends of the ex-Gun Club leader recorded some of his unpublished songs) had been writing and editing together some great songs compiled in this 'A Fistful of Desert Blues' (officially released last May) in what sounds like pre-war blues and (as the title suggests) ballads stained in desert dust, but with that personal touch that only they are capable of. Magnificent and overwhelming, how could it be otherwise. And watch out for the opportunity, because they are on tour with members of Gallon Drunk.
