Pickerel,Mark & His Praying Hands Snake In The Radio CD

Mark Pickerel, drummer in seminal garage faves The Screaming Trees, has performed on albums with Mark Lanegan, Brandi Carlile, Neko Case, and even Nirvana. On Snake in the Radio Mark's earthy voice and lyrics embody a sheen style not unlike Magnetic Fields, Ennio Morricone, Lee Hazelwood and Nick Cave getting together to drink moose blood and play four-handed Texas Hold 'Em. "... a supernatural stew... his edgy phrasing brings to mind a more dissolute Chris Isaak, or a more tuneful Nick Cave. On the rockers, he purrs like a leopard about to pounce, sounding playful and vaguely lethal at the same time." - PHOENIX NEW TIMES
