The Afghan Whigs의 90년대 묵직한 소울을 앨범으로 만날 수 있었던게 무려 16년 전이었습니다. 그들이 여전히 그 시절의 거친 느낌을 타이틀 곡 Algiers와 함께 간직한 채 돌아왔습니다. 도발적인 펑크와 가슴 저리는 얼터너티브 락의 결합을 시도해 온 밴드이기에 그다지 놀랄일도 아니지만요.
Faith, the diamond in the chain Still I was a slave, waiting to be saved Dream, the body sleeps but I Am not too proud to roam On the back streets It's oh, so simple when you know You'll know this when it's time to go
Stray, and soon you'll leave behind The loneliness you've sown, paradise leans Scream, the body leaves the bone To sit upon the throne The battle waged for light
Dream, dream your sins away Sin your dreams away You're holding back, stop holding back Unchain!
Say you'll love me tonight Save your love for me tonight And I feel you now Lie awake and love drunk I feel you now
Heavenly daemons outside my window Sent here to see me outside this world I call the shadow, you call the season And that's solitary
