About the album
After collaborating on Ballad of the Broken Seas, work on Sunday at Devil Dirt did not take a lot of time from the musicians. Mark Lanegan personally came to Isobel Campbell's hometown of Glasgow and recorded his vocals for nine days. In general, the album continued and developed the traditions begun in the Ballad of the Broken Seas , which was positively noted by music critics.
Reviews
Allmusic reviewer Tim Sendra described Sunday at Devil Dirt as "country-blues and melancholy in the style of Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hezlwood , restrained British folk and dramatic Bad Seeds' s ballads," noting that "Lanegan's growl and purring Campan make a purge and make ballads do" like Ballad of the Broken Seas ” [1] . According to Joshua Klein of Pitchfork Sunday at Devil Dirt, “steps close to the grim notes of Leonard Cohen and Scott Walker of the late 1960s, with glimpses of Tom Waits' landfill blues” [2] . Critic of The Guardian Betty Clark compared the sound of the duet with "teenager Marianne Faithful , caring for the aging Johnny Cash " [3] . Andy Gill, in his review at The Independent , once again noted the “piquancy of the contrast between the smoky baritone of Lanegan and the honey cooing of Campbell,” and also wrote that the lyrics of Sunday at Devil Dirt are “a colorful team of sailors, suitors, rescuers and bird-changing forms "- cover a much wider musical spectrum than in the previous album [4] .
