May 5th 2008 sees the return of Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan with their second album, Sunday at Devil Dirt on V2 / Cooperative Music.
Sunday at Devil Dirt is the follow-up to the critically-acclaimed Ballad of the Broken Seas which received a Mercury nomination in 2006.
Apparently it continues to “mine the same rich seam of alt-country, folk and blues of their debut” but the new record also embraces a “dusty southern gothic, while a sultry, jazzy feel is evident on a number of tracks”. Sounds intriguing… I just hope it’s a bit more uptempo that the debut…
As with their debut, the album has been written, produced and arranged by Isobel Campbell, with Lanegan providing lead vocal duties.

As far as I’m concerned it was a belter :-)
