16 Horsepower - Yours Truly : Best Of + Rarities 2x12''

[28.50EUR]

label: glitterhouse

""Influenced by folk's more whacked out, gloomy, voodoo-visioned forebears, 16 Horsepower ... narrate their haunting campfire-punk yarns without a
modern-day care in the world. Instead, David Eugene and his melancholia-drenched posse of LA dreamers prefer the dark grandeur that only comes
with mournful swathes of countrified guitar, of heavy-hearted violins, pianos and accordions, of lonesome banjo-picking and Ennio Morricone
tautness. Add a dash of Dylan-esque roots-philosophy and the result is a forlorn dustbowl saloon bar where Nick Cave woefully sinks bourbons with
the Gun Club only moments after a loved one's funeral parade. ... Sometimes, you just have to accept that there's, ahem, nothing as pure as folk."
- NME.... 10 years after the NME raved about 16 Horsepower, Glitterhouse proudly presents a tremendous collection of classic songs and lost treasures. CD 1 is a true "Best Of". Compiled by fans and music lovers around the globe by voting on various websites, each participant was requested to list his
10 favourite 16 HP songs. The result is a fabulous collection of the band's core and it surely deserves the title "Best Of". To add more value
Glitterhouse decided to include the two runner-ups as well. CD 2 collects 13 songs that were never released on the official albums. Single B-Sides,
Demo versions, radio sessions - stuff that even the most avid fan may not have in his collection."
