| The Immortal Lee County Killers Chet Weise vocals guitar harmonica Jeff Goodwin vocals keyboards Mr Toko Chanel vocals Personnel Chetley Dale Weise vocals guitar Recording information 1615 Sound Nashville TN The third incarnation of the Immortal Lee County Killers sounds a bit less frantic but every bit as committed on 2005 s These Bones Will Rise to Love You Again The muscular punk-infused clamor of the group s first two albums has been turned down a few notches and keyboards have added some additional layers of groove on several tunes and as a result These Bones Will Rise is rooted more in traditional rock and R amp B structures than in the past with a soulful vibe permeating these sessions Don t fret there s still plenty of sweat and energy to be found here Chetley Weise s guitar still cuts deep and most importantly this band still lives and dies for their vision of the blues Boom Boom is a telling homage to the power of Skip James Airliner invokes the name and works of Stevie Wonder like a magic talisman and who s to argue with that and the title Blues just about says it all in its tale of pain and menace And while some fans will wonder about the slow drift of Lights Down Low or Wide as the Sky the truth is Weise has added new angles to his music without throwing away the passion and force that made it memorable in the first place Strong stuff Mark Deming |
