Really Insane - A Lou Barlow Compendium
by Sentridoh
Quote:
Lou Barlow personified home recording's rise in the late 80's and was arguably one of the few key players that changed the trajectory of songwriting as the 90's charted its cultural course. For the 30th anniversary of his Really Insane 7" and Winning Losers EP, Emil Amos and Steve Shelley have compiled an overview of Lou's best solo work under the name 'Sentridoh'. Based around an even mix of legendary tracks and extra deep cuts, this compilation focuses on Lou's arrangement innovations, signature textural explorations and radical ability to turn psychological upheaval into classic songs.

I love Lou Barlow, but not so much this Sentridoh. Some tracks are amazing, most are not IMHO
