Critical acclaim for Gargoyle, out now on Heavenly Recordings:
“Bringing diverse soundscapes and lyrical moods into a hugely enjoyable whole, Lanegan ascends to goth-synth perfection… A triumph.” MOJO – 5 Stars *****
“A bravura statement from an artist still sounding fresh three decades into his career.” The Observer – 5 Stars *****
“Think Depeche Mode at teir darkest and pitch-shift Dave Gahan’s voice down an octave, and you’re close to the appeal of Gargoyle, Lanegan’s darkly compelling new album.” Uncut – 8/10
“Glorious… Lanegan is in the form of his career.” The Guardian – 4 Stars ****
“Gargoyle takes the electronic bedrock of its predecessor and kicks it up a notch.” Q – 4 Stars ****
“Lanegan is on fine form here… Gargoyle continues the electronica sound of past albums, but this time the songs seem more expansive and – whisper it quietly – upbeat.” Sunday Times
“Lanegan’s tenth LP is a thing of dark and brooding brilliance.”The Sun – 4 Stars ****
“An album of multifarious treasures… Lanegan sounds rejuvenated.” Record Collector – 4 Stars ****
“Cinematic musical backdrops frame Lanegan’s voice in a noir landscape… Arguably Lanegan’s most accomplished album yet.” Louder Than War – 9/10
“Gargoyle picks up on the electro–noir of its predecessors… Lanegan is on daring and seductive form throughout.” Classic Rock – 8/10
“Gargoyle has an early 80s UK electronic rock feel, with Lanegan’s rough vocal rasp sawing through musical timbres reminiscent of what was being played out at Manchester’s Factory.” The WIRE
“Another excellent album… While the imagery remains predominantly dark, there are glints of optimism and lightness of spirit peeking through some songs.” The i Paper – 4 Stars ****
“Lanegan’s solo career has been consistently engaging, showcasing the artistic freedom of a man following his instincts.” Total Guitar – 4 Stars ****
“A menacing Krautrock air pervades, with Nocturne a wonderful fog of driven reverb–heavy guitars, propulsive bass and Lanegan’s weathered vocals.” Long Live Vinyl – 4 Stars ****
“A menacing Krautrock air pervades, with Nocturne a wonderful fog of reverby guitars, propellant bass and Lanegan’s weathered vocals.” Guitar & Bass – 9/10
“A tireless and sturdy body of work, alternating between chilling folk and glowering electro–rock.” Mail On Sunday
