Description
Born of western imagery haunted with the sound of bygone arena rock, this is the album that conjures images of both Zep in ‘72 and Queens of the Stone Age today. Exile-era Stones fraternizing with Sonic Youth at Tom Petty’s ranch.
Notes
"Spirit Lake does a great job of hearkening back to '70s stuff like Cheap Trick, Sweet, Foghat, Bad Company, etc. but still sounding very fresh and contemporary, while also avoiding the cheese-factor inherent in bands from that era. It's like that kind of music but with a Black Crowes sensibility; with the Crowes there's no shying away from country tinges and that's something I definitely appreciate.
Early standouts for me are Questions (great single choice), One More Lie (fantastic), Hellbent (balls out), Wicked Son, and Crown is a great closer to the album.
These guys made a killer album. Can't wait to get more acquainted with it."

"Well written, played and recorded, this is polished, big boy, bourbon & dope, fire & brimstone, cock & balls style rock & roll that's been vicariously, yet adeptly steeped and percolated through haunted juke-joints and sports arenas. This is a bigger, meaner Spirit Lake than we got with Uncle Walker's Amber Restorative. This release makes the sonic argument that this band would not be out of place sharing the stage with Foghat in 72, Zeppelin in 75, GnR in 88, Alice In Chains or Soundgarden in 93, Foo Fighters in 99, Wolfmother in 06, or Jack White / Black Keys / Queens Of The Stone Age today.
Lester Bangs once wrote: “Personally, I feel that real rock 'n' roll may be on the way out, just like adolescence as a relatively innocent transitional period is on the way out. What we have instead is a small island of new free music surrounded by some good reworkings of past idioms and a vast sargasso sea of absolute garbage.” Well, he's dead, and, while he wasn't entirely wrong, records like The Bigenning prove those some of those reworkings can rock just as hard, fire up just as many joints, and embiggen as many backseat bulges decades later."
