Mark Lanegan - Scraps At Midnight (1998) Lossless

The third solo album by American rock musician Mark Lanegan, released in 1998.
The album opens with the song "Hospital Roll Call", which many of Lanegan's fans interpret as a sly reference to the number of the hospital room the musician was in during his next visit to the rehabilitation center. This theme is expanded by "Hotel", and "Stay" and "Bell Black Ocean" talk about love and tenderness. "Last One In The World" is possibly dedicated to Mark's friend Kurt Cobain, who passed away in 1994. Scraps at Midnight can be considered the latest in a trilogy of albums The Winding Sheet - Whiskey for the Holy Ghost - Scraps at Midnight, whose disturbing lyrics are inspired by American folk music and explore the theme of loss and sin. In an interview in 2004, the musician shared the idea of ​​creating his albums: “It was always my goal when I started ... It was kind of my obsession, to make records with a sense of the blues, with its spirit, but at the same time, I think this is not the same what we think of as traditional blues, which is boring and outdated, I'm not interested in it at all. I'm interested in real feelings. "
