From its matte black cover inwards, Bubblegum never stints on the dark stuff. There is drug-induced despair and failed romance, with music to match: sibilant drum machines that recall 1970s art-punks Suicide, dolefully minimal guitar figures, shrieking feedback and the unmistakable wail of PJ Harvey on backing vocals. At its bleakest and least tuneful, Bubblegum is powerful enough to take your breath away. In every sense, Bubblegum is a staggering record\"\u003c\/em\u003e Petridis awarded the album four out of five stars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e#html-body [data-pb-style=\"62F264DC320B7\"]{justify-content: flex-start; display: flex; flex-direction: column; background-position: left top; background-size: cover; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-attachment: scroll; border-style: none; border-width: 1px; border-radius: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 10px;}#html-body [data-pb-style=\"62F264DC320C7\"]{border-style: none; border-width: 1px; border-radius: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;}\u003c\/style\u003e","brand":"Mark Lanegan","offers":[{"title":"Bubblegum - LP","offer_id":50726109315345,"sku":"BBQLP237","price":22.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Bubblegum - CD","offer_id":50726109348113,"sku":"BBQCD237","price":13.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0882\/3937\/4609\/files\/mark_lanegan_band_-_bubblegum_511b9855-76ac-45b0-be77-a89de3049b67.jpg?v=1733251211"},{"product_id":"bbq2632-bubblegum-xx","title":"Bubblegum XX","description":"\u003cstyle\u003e#html-body [data-pb-style=K1OQN4G]{justify-content:flex-start;display:flex;flex-direction:column;background-position:left top;background-size:cover;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-attachment:scroll}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-element=\"main\" data-appearance=\"contained\" data-content-type=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-pb-style=\"K1OQN4G\" data-element=\"inner\" data-video-fallback-src=\"\" data-video-lazy-load=\"true\" data-video-play-only-visible=\"true\" data-video-loop=\"true\" data-background-type=\"image\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-parallax-speed=\"0.5\" data-enable-parallax=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-element=\"main\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-content-type=\"text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBeggars Arkive in conjunction with the Estate of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eMark Lanegan\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e celebrated the 20th Anniversary of Mark Lanegan’s acclaimed 2004 album \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eBubblegum \u003c\/i\u003ewith\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBubblegum XX\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e - a set of releases that include a remastered double LP edition of the original album and a 4XLP\/3XCD\/Digital release containing 40 remastered tracks, 12 of which are previously unreleased.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe limited-edition \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eBubblegum XX\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 4XLP box contains a 64-page hardcover book with essays by Troy Van Leewuen, Josh Homme, Chris Goss, Alain Johannes, David Catching, Greg Dulli, Duff McKagan, and Brett Netson along with studio notes and previously unseen photographs by Steve Gullick.

Mark’s voice is front and center, and as Josh Homme notes in the book,\u003cem\u003e “Mark’s early solo works are undeniably powerful.

About the sessions, Troy said… \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003e“So these hotel demo sessions were basically forgotten...When I heard the news of Mark's passing, these memories started rushing back to me. I searched through my archive of drives and somehow magically was able to open up these sessions. I thought to myself, “That NEVER happens.” These ideas couldn’t be more fresh out of the tap. The original rough mixes are a real time capsule that stands up to the 20 years that have passed. It’s a true gift from Mark to those of us who love him and his unvarnished expression of beauty. With every listen, I am humbled and honored to share his gift with you.”\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMark had been demoing songs for a new album, and he was booked to record at Abbey Road.

While many of the songs came from a place of dejection and ennui at the end of a tempestuous relationship, “Bombed” in particular came about when, after I had written and recorded it in just a few minutes, I put a microphone in front of Wendy Rae Fowler, my soon-to-be-ex-wife, and had her sing along while simultaneously hearing it for the first time. I loved the result as it reminded me of Royal Trux, a band I liked. When I insisted on using the first and only take of the song, it made her slightly unhappy, but to be fair, that was just one of many things I did that had that effect.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mark Lanegan","offers":[{"title":"Bubblegum (2024 Remaster) - Clear Red 2X LP","offer_id":50726110167313,"sku":"BBQ2633LPE","price":32.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Bubblegum (2024 Remaster) - Black Vinyl 2X LP","offer_id":50726110200081,"sku":"BBQ2633LP","price":32.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0882\/3937\/4609\/files\/1x1_lp_front__1_35fb397b-7e4a-4bb9-ac8e-5cf2d5702d19.jpg?v=1733251249"}],"url":"https:\/\/store.beggarsbanquetrecords.com\/collections\/mark-lanegan-collection.oembed","provider":"Beggars Banquet Recordings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
