Chart: Sadcore Serenade by Saoirse Rank on User's Chart: 3
Year: 2001
Rank on BEA Overall: 1,826
Average Rating: 77/100
Summary Info: The third album by Virginia-based indie rock band, Sparklehorse. Unlike on his first two albums, here Mark Linkous enlists the help of a number of other musicians, including PJ Harvey and Tom Waits. The decidedly somber tone of his music may have been influenced by a lifetime of battling depression, as well as a near-fatal drug overdose in 1996.

I've always preferred Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot to this album, but to be honest haven't listened to any Sparklehorse for donkey's years. Time to reacquaint methinks... _________________ 'Reggae' & t'ing Folk 'n Stuff SHAMELESS RECORD DEALER PLUG
Oh, I've listened to Vivathingy today! Not for the first time, but I'm not too familiar with it yet either. That record is truly astounding, one of the best I've recently discovered. He seems to only have three albums, so I wanted to go through them chronologically, which means this one will be the last. Excited to reach it though, Sparklehorse really seems to be a wonderful artist.
