Jason Molina Black Sabbath Covers (Vinyl)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: Black Sabbath CoversCondition: NewFormat: VinylDescription: EDITORIAL REVIEWS When Jason Molina took on another artists song, he willed his own universe into it, his own personal and artistic mythology. Be it Conway Twitty or Townes Van Zandt, their blues were infused with Molina's own entrancing blues. This pair of newly discovered, home-recorded Black Sabbath covers is no different. Molina, a through-and-through fan of metal (seek out his high school metal band the Spineriders' album if you havent yet) peels back the sinister and stoned elements of Sabbath, zeroing in on the loneliness and brooding. He takes Solitude, from 1971s unfuckwithable Master of Reality and one of Sabbaths more mystical, near-proggy songs and doubles down on the title. Molina extracts Ozzy Osbournes gorgeously cooed vocal performance and transforms it into a high and lonesome sound, a desert campfire howler. And on his cover of Snowblind," from 1972s Vol. 4, it becomes obvious what a guitar hero Sabbaths Tony Iommi was for Molina. Molina seemed to pull from Iommis odd, simple fingerings and tunings throughout his catalogue: from his first album (known informally as the black album) to Magnolia Electric Co.s Josephine. Molinas brief acoustic cover dials back the bombast, but you can surely connect Snowblinds chord progressions with Molinas own on the black album and Axxess & Ace. Recorded in the midwest in the late '90s, during Molinas multi-season run of batting 1.000, these two intimate songs are a bittersweet artifact of one of the rustbelts titan songwriters. Note to buyer: Do not attempt to play Side B of this 7 release. Side B is a gorgeous etching of a black ram by artist Will Schaff. If you do attempt to play the etching on Side B it will sound absolutely awful.Genre: PopArtist: Jason MolinaNo Of Discs: 1Country/Region of Manufacture: USARecord Label: SECRETLY CANADIANEAN: 0656605035574 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
