Details
[Edit]Multi-instrumentalist Barry Adamson has been composing and recording his own dark lounge noir jazz-pop for nearly 20 years. He’s lent his expertise to Nick Cave’s Bad Seeds, scored parts of David Lynch’s Lost Highway, and has been a major, if unheralded, influence on an entire generation of hipsters, from Richard Hawley to PJ Harvey. His shadowy figure — part Scott Walker, part Lee Hazlewood, part 1950s beatnik — emerges centerstage on his 2008 release Back to the Cat. Adamson immerses himself amongst the slinky nightclub horns and Hammond B-3, singing in a variety of tones and approaches. “The Beaten Side of Town” begins as a dark narrative, plainspoken and creepy. “Spend a Little Time” ramps up to a quick blues shuffle. “Shadow of Death Hotel” is an ambitious instrumental that vamps with ferocity, beginning as a horn-fueled epiphany before turning up the electric guitars and finally settling with flutes and pianos. “Walk on Fire” adds a ‘70s funk guitar. “Flight” chugs with a loose, foreboding groove, heavy on percussive flights and strong bursts of sax. Plenty of creepiness to go around.
