Before anyone had heard a track from WAR PAINT, the Black Crowes' seventh
studio outing, it had already kicked up a PR firestorm. Either by deciding to
forego listening to it or by obtaining a leaked download, Maxim Magazine
panned the record before they even had an official promotional copy. These
aging neo-hippies found themselves as unlikely defenders of the teetering
music industry by publicly defaming Maxim and demanding an apology. They got
it. Maxim ate, er, crow. Having taken shots since their debut record for their
unabashed derivative revivalism, the Crowes seem to be a band that functions
best when beleaguered. Fortunately, WAR PAINT is worth the tussle. After a
decade-plus on the jam band circuit, the Robinson brothers return to form,
gleefully ripping off the Rolling Stones. The lead-off track, "Goodbye
Daughters of the Revolution," with its swinging beat and raunchy
slide--courtesy of Mississippi All-Star and new Crowe Luther
Dickinson--recalls "Let it Bleed."." Oh, Josephine" echoes the weary,
processed guitar tones of "Waiting On a Friend." They even ape the Stones
aping Gram Parsons on the beautiful, country-tinged number "Locust Street."
WAR PAINT occasionally finds the band stretching out into a looser, more
natural vibe, as on "Whoa Mule," the closer, augmented by elements of
freak-folk and reportedly recorded outside the band's Catskills studio. All
told, this is the band's best album since THE SOUTHERN HARMONY AND MUSICAL
COMPANION.
