Mark Lanegan Highly Recommended
Mark Lanegan's album Bubblegum has been the only thing of late that has been able to replace QOTSA in my players. Not only is Lanegan (former singer from Screaming Trees) top notch, but he's also working with a whole host of people from various bands I love (Masters of Reality, QOTSA, PJ Harvey among others). This guy is good. The album is masterfully crafted. Buy it, your ears will thank you.
My current favorite of the album is Methamphetamine Blues. One minute and forty-seven seconds in and my skin goes tingly for some reason (could be the female backing vocals...I've said before I'm a pervert)...but an excellent song from start to finish.
