 Whiskey For The Holy Ghost is Lanegan’s second solo work and it is a blues album, pure because it is dirty, swollen with drunkenness and smeared with ash.

 Probably the highest peak of his production, Whiskey For The Holy Ghost may be the true debut of Lanegan the artist, an emphatic noir storyteller, with an absolutely indisputable class.

Mark Lanegan's second solo album, Whiskey For The Holy Ghost, showcases his raw, emotional blues style with stripped-down folk instruments. Recorded during a tough period, it remains quiet yet sharp, emphasizing his hoarse, expressive voice. The album captures American musical traditions with minimal distortions and rich, atmospheric instrumentation. It stands as one of Lanegan's highest artistic achievements, marking the true beginning of his solo artist identity. Listen to Mark Lanegan’s raw and soulful Whiskey For The Holy Ghost and experience a true blues masterwork.
