native kentuckian r. keenan lawler speaks a private, fundamental language via his trademark metal-bodied resonator guitar. with an intensely focused technique, he sets bluegrass and blues-inflected tonalities against dense masses of harmonic overtones and sustained textures. it is a mesmerizing sound, one that conjures the effect of various global trance-musics and has beguiled a series of collaborators including pelt, matmos, charalambides and my morning jacket. inhabiting the mysterious string-space between tony conrad and john fahey, lawler's is a wholly original idiom of music that brims with near-religious exhaltation and spectral, gothic dread - a daring plunge through the darkened brambles of a particularly raw americana. cd only on table of the elements.
