Mark Lanegan returns with a new album called Gargoyle. Credited under his Mark Lanegan Band moniker, the follow-up to 2014’s Phantom Radio sees the former Screaming Trees frontman thriving in full-on collaboration mode. Among those he called upon for assistance are Queens of the Stone Age mastermind and Lanegan’s frequent studio partner Josh Homme, Greg Dulli of The Afghan Whigs, longtime producer extraordinaire Alain Johannes, and London-based multi-instrumentalist Duke Garwood. Rob Marshall, an English artist Lanegan befriended way back in 2008, also helped to co-write six of Gargoyle’s 10 tracks. Marshall’s music is said to have “fitted perfectly with the direction Mark had been pondering: in essence, a more expansive progression from the moody Krautrock-influenced electronica textures of his two previous albums.”
