Graham Coxon - Crow Sit On Blood Tree

Fakten Originally released in 2001, Graham's third solo album, Crow Sit On Blood Tree, catches him stretching out as a songwriter. Burn It Down and You Will Never Be carry the same noisy alt-rock charge heard on classic Blur tracks like Song 2. Elsewhere, All Has Gone and Thank God For The Rain show a gentler side, drawing on the delicate acoustic folk of Nick Drake and Bert Jansch. It is a record of contrasts, moving easily between chaos and calm without losing its shape. “There’s absolute mayhem on that at times, but there’s quiet songs, too," says Graham. Recorded, mixed and mastered in just two weeks, it captures a restless moment of discovery. “I was still exploring different music and what I could do. I’ll turn my hand to so many different types of music if it feels natural."
