Them Crooked Vultures - Live In Montreal - 12 May 2010 (Remastered)

In the deepest frozen doubt
There's a thawing, lifting out
This ending rope
My ray of hope

There's no reason to believe
But the heart rolls up it's sleeve
This day's not done
While I paint a sun

Falling apart as it comes together
For one more refrain
No more surprises we made the weather
Let's stand in the rain
And smile in pain

An eternal fall to grace
Playing out in decaying space
Oh travel on
It won't be long

Falling apart as it comes together
For one more refrain
No more surprises we made the weather
Let's stand in the rain
And smile in pain

Fall To Grace

There's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Alain Johannes proves that proverb with Spark, his solo debut. Due out October 5th, Spark is a heartfelt, honest and hypnotic collection of songs that Alain penned to commemorate his late wife and creative partner, Natasha Shneider. 

It's more than a tribute though; it's the purest celebration of her spirit through song. Alain plays like his soul depends on it and the songs breathe organically. From co-founding Eleven with Natasha to collaborating with everyone from Queens of the Stone Age and Them Crooked Vultures to Chris Cornell and Mark Lanegan, Alain remains a prolific force. Spark shows listeners every side of this unique songwriter, producer and composer. QOTSA/Crooked Vultures frontman and bandmate Joshua Homme, whos Rekords Rekords label will release Spark, gave the album a glowing send-up: "Alain's record is the total embodiment of what the label stands for the war against endorsing mediocrity and the uncensored attempt to take a leap off the musical cliff. Spark is a stunning examination of figuring out what you do when someone's gone, and it's utterly breathtaking."

Beauty often is born from tragedy, and Spark ultimately stands as a testament to that.
