love spirals - long way from home
- Ahh, the good ol’ days of alternative rock. I remember walking into a record store and being at the clerks’ mercy, begging he or she to put me on to a new band that would make me “feeeel” something, which is how I grew to love bands like My Bloody Valentine, The Breeders, The Smiths, etc. If this was 1992, and I asked my favorite mom and pop record store clerk what should I be listening to, I would hope they would point me in the direction of “Lovespirals.” Empty and sad, but of full of emotion, their album “Long Way from Home” is medicine for those that dig the alternative. How can you take a gut-wrenching classic like “Motherless Child” and make it sadder? Let the “Lovespirals” get a hold of it. It’s easy to fall into the loose, country-tinged groove of “Caught in a Groove” and let your soul be taken for a ride. By the time the “upbeat” “Lovelight” comes on, you won’t mind being “A Long Way from Home,” and I think you’ll want to stay there.
