Release Notes:
There's always a light at the end of the tunnel.
Alain Johannes proves that proverb with Spark, his solo debut. Due out
October 5th, Spark is a heartfelt, honest and hypnotic collection of
songs that Alain penned to commemorate his late wife and creative
partner, Natasha Shneider.
It's more than a tribute though; it's the purest celebration of her
spirit through song. Alain plays like his soul depends on it and the
songs breathe organically. From co-founding Eleven with Natasha to
collaborating with everyone from Queens of the Stone Age and Them
Crooked Vultures to Chris Cornell and Mark Lanegan, Alain remains a
prolific force. Spark shows listeners every side of this unique
songwriter, producer and composer.
QOTSA/Crooked Vultures frontman and bandmate Joshua Homme, whos Rekords
Rekords label will release Spark, gave the album a glowing send-up:
"Alain's record is the total
embodiment of what the label stands for the war against endorsing
mediocrity and the uncensored attempt to take a leap off the musical
cliff. Spark is a stunning examination of figuring out what you do when
someone's gone, and it's utterly breathtaking."
Beauty often is born from tragedy, and Spark ultimately stands as a
testament to that.
