Damn, I do love me some Afghan Whigs! Nobody else sounds like they do, then or now. And, that's got to be the ultimate compliment, right? It's meant to be.
This band seemed destined to be huge...and they got sorta big (a video on 120 Minutes is nothing to sneeze at! That Dave Kendall was the Ricki Rachtmann of alterna-ness back then!)...then got small again, and then came roaring back a couple years ago to the praise that had alluded them way back when. Sorta.
