Imitations

Lanegan’s personality is present throughout Imitations without defiling the spirit of the originals, the best attribute of any cover. The songs are generally sparsely adorned and make for an intimate experience with one of the most unique voices in all of music.

Imitations may not alter Lanegan’s roundabout arc as a musical itinerant, but it’s a steady reminder of the breadth of his scope and the depth of his roots, not to mention his stature as one of the most potent voices of his generation.
