MP3 Bambi Lee Savage - Matter of Time
10 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Americana, FOLK: Modern Folk
Details:
"Matter of Time" is the debut from singer, songwriter and guitarist Bambi Lee Savage. Included in this eclectic collection of original compositions is a version of "Darlin''", Ms. Savage''s contribution to the "Sling Blade" soundtrack. "Darlin''", featuring Daniel Lanois on solo guitar, provides a rare moment of sweetness and light on the CD, which is often dark and reflective.
"The voice snakes in around the cracks of the song like a curl of smoke, a vapor stinking of lust and poison. "I threw everything away/That you''d ever given to me/All the things I saved are gone/The dead flowers from the time/That my little baby died," Bambi Lee Savage groans in a throaty, shaded whisper in her song "Dead and Gone." Clots of discordant piano clog veins of pounding feedback, and the bass line throbs like a tick in the temple. "Dead and Gone" is just one of many paeans to the dichotomy of passion and pain that appear on her debut full-length. On the first four songs on Matter of Time, The Bad Seeds influence is pervasive; "Whiskey Well" is a folklore-like parable about spirits, both liquid and phantasmal, and the title track is a loping, tribal threnody with swooning chord changes and Savage''s husky, spoken-sung delivery.
"Darlin''," is a hushed, languid folk tune that sounds like the Velvet Underground''s "Sunday Morning" as read by Gillian Welch."
