I love it when an artistÆs name + album name combines to make an utterly
ridiculous headline. According to Wikipedia, White Buffalo are extremely rare
û they only occur in one out of every 10 million births.
The White Buffalo is Jake Smith residing in Southern California. We posted
about him way back in 2007 and heÆs been hard to track down until now. HeÆll
be releasing his second EP entitled Prepare For Black and Blue later this
Fall.
The EP opens with ôLove Song #2,ö an acoustic sequel to ôLove Song #1? from
his 2005 self-titled EP. DidnÆt take long to remember what I loved about The
White Buffalo when first discovering the bearded singer-songwriter. ItÆs those
husky vocals.
ôOh Darlingö picks up the pace, burning with regret and violence in a
spaghetti western. Then ôBlack and Blueö begins with lyrics:
Pack up your shit weÆre through
Prepare for black and blue
She slams the door
Out into the night she flew
The neighbor yells shut the fuck up
ItÆs late and thatÆs quite enough
But I scan the streets and scream off the balcony for you
ItÆs that refreshing type of honest, heart-on-your-sleeve breakup song. ôInto
The Sunö fingerpicks you back up and features the best songwriting on the
album. His voice has the ability to raise goosebumps when it deepens in the
lines ôuntil I hit the ocean.ö
The White Buffalo is like mixing up Waylon Jennings, Warren Haynes, and Mark
Lanegan into an old man drink.
