Exene Cervenka - Running Sacred
Review by Tetsunori Nakamura
Running Sacred by Exene Cervenka is a raw and powerful album that showcases the singer's unique blend of punk rock, folk, and country music. The album is a departure from her work with the seminal punk band X, but it is no less intense and passionate.
The songs on Running Sacred are personal and introspective, with Cervenka exploring themes of love, loss, and redemption. Her voice is gritty and raw, but also hauntingly beautiful, as she delivers each lyric with a sense of urgency and conviction.
The album's production is sparse and stripped-down, with acoustic guitars and minimal percussion providing a backdrop for Cervenka's vocals. This gives the songs a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, as if the listener is eavesdropping on a private conversation.
Standout tracks on the album include "Surface of the Sun," a haunting ballad that showcases Cervenka's vocal range and emotional depth, and "Angels of the Stage," a spirited punk anthem that pays tribute to the power of live music.
