Fire Starter

The Afghan Whigs keep burning
by Matt Ashare
Afghan Whigs The tense sizzle of a struck match is the scene-setting sound that punctuates the start of 1965, the seventh album from the Afghan Whigs, and their first since leaving Elektra for Columbia. As far as I know, the last person to employ that little device was Lou Reed, whose 1978 live disc Take No Prisoners (Arista) opened with the sound of a cigarette being lit, fair warning that rock’s poet laureate had commenced blowing smoke up an audience’s ass. Whig singer/songwriter/guitarist Greg Dulli, who also produced 1965, knows a thing or two about blowing smoke: he liked the line “A lie, the truth, which one shall I use?” so much that he used it twice on 1996’s Black Love (Elektra). And he’s enough of a music-trivia buff to know that with one allusive, close-miked flick of a match he’s brought a whole new load of baggage aboard.
