Digipack.<br/><br/>You want it darker? <br/>Hurt, hope and all states in between..<br/>När Jake Smith sjunger, lyssnar du!<br/> <br/>Jake Smith eller White Buffalo blev en riktig snackis efter att han medverkat som en av de huvudsakliga vokalisterna i TV serien "Sons Of Anarchy".<br/> <br/>Föregående albumet "Love And Death Of Damnation" var White Buffalos tredje fullängdare och den första som släpptes i Europa, skivan fick fina recensioner bland annat i tidningen Sonic.<br/><br/>Albumet, "Darkest Dark, Lightest Lights" är inspelat tillsammans med producenten Ryan Dorn i Unison Studios bjuder plattan på ett brett spektrum av låtar, från sköra ballader till en Bruce Springsteen på Red Bull!

Digipack.<br/><br/>Love and the Death of Damnation follows the White Buffalo's (aka Jake Smith) celebrated song cycle Shadows, Greys & Evil Ways, about an Iraq War veteran's complex return to society. This set is more conventional in scope; its 11 songs aren't unified thematically but still offer uncommonly strong storytelling. Smith's protagonists are almost always marginal characters and his songs offer them voices without judgment. He presents these tales in an imaginative musical palette. He ranges from edgy Americana ("Last Call to Heaven," "I Got You") to alt-country ("Dark Days," "Home Is in Your Arms") and raw roots rock & roll ("Modern Times"). Along the way are unexpected production touches -- mariachi horns in "Chico," a jazzy trumpet solo in "Last Call to Heaven" -- that add depth to his stories and dimension to his characters.
