"Houston is a means to revisit Lanegan in his natural habitat, following a decade of increasingly eclectic pursuits both within and without his own discography. Rooted in timeless musical forms-folk, blues, country rock, spaghetti-western soundtracks, eastern-infused psychedelia-Houston never feels stylistically tethered to its moment of origin; it's the sort of album that could've conceivably been released at any point in Lanegan's career".

"While some people might argue that some of these songs sound unpolished, or maybe unfinished I think it's the imperfections in them that make them so special. Any artist can leave songs on a symbolic shelf, but it takes a true musician to be able to bring them back after 13 years and release them as they are, take them or leave them. Each track is full of classic folk rock, you hear the simple guitar chords and you hear the vocals crooning over the lyrics. There is no fancy instrumental backing track, it's just raw talent and that's what makes a record like Houston".
Vurdering 4/5.
