Idaho
Three Sheets To The Wind
Very Rare original UK LP released on Caroline Records in 1996. 1st UK pressing complete with inner sleeve.
One of the most prolific, consistent, and unsung acts classified as slowcore, Los Angeles, California's Idaho is led by four-string guitarist and vocalist Jeff Martin, an unflinching songwriter who gained comparisons to Mark Eitzel (American Music Club), Mark Kozelek (Red House Painters), and Neil Young from the few journalists who paid attention. Despite the lack of recognition from the press and a low profile, Idaho gained a decent-sized underground following through a steady release schedule during the '90s, as well as sporadic touring. Through the 2010s, Idaho alternated between a full-band lineup and a solo outlet for Martin, who also plays drums, bass, and keyboards, and produces his recordings.
On 1994's This Way Out, Idaho was down to just singer Jeff Martin. However, the new players employed here give a noticeable boost to his slo-core tendencies, particularly on the rockin' "Pomegranate Bleeding." Other tracks such as "Catapult" also benefit from a shot in the arm. In fact, the more expansive sound makes this album the finest Idaho release to date. The overall result is a bit less sleepy than previous efforts, though Martin's downtrodden vision, reminiscent of Mark Eitzel, is still firmly in place. His distinct guitar sound -- emanating from a four-stringed instrument with odd tunings -- is still here also, as are his great chordal instincts. Just when you think you know where a song is going, Martin offers up a splendid twist. Other highlights include "Shame," "A Sound Awake," and "Get You Back."
