Milagro Saints Stephen Ineson Raleigh MILAGRO SAINTS have just finished a NEW ALBUM "SIGNS ON THE ROAD" for Spring 2018 release on Moon Caravan Records using material the band have been playing live for a year or so. The songs are written by Lead singer/songwriter SD Ineson. The album contains a genre-twisting selection of Americana songs. Starting off with the strident "Gold Rush Blues" about the mania of greed and neediness (that seems so contemporary!) "Black crows they surround me. The sky is full of prophecy... I suppose". Then "Wheel Of Fortune" a dreamy Byrds-like jangle about the ups and downs of life, " I'm somewhere else but its looking just the same". Followed by the driving rock of "Fugitive" "Cash is king and the 1% are royalty". A tale of gun happy America, the marginalization of the less wealthy, and the chasm between the 1% and the rest of us!. Next - Love=Fact. was written as a celebration of the Motown sound " No miscalculation by the scientists of the heart" pumped up with hopeful harmonies and a retro horn section. Signs however is more of a doomy jazz-tinged psychedelic trip through doubt and delusion "consequences and truth blowing hard on my roof" with crazy-phased mandolin and gloomy Wurlitzer. Hummingbird wanders into "Cosmic Americana" country rock laden with "Basement Tapes" Dylanisms "They say that Anger is the the Sister of Spite" echoed thru the plangent soundscape of The Band. Harmony Road pays tribute to Van The Man "I'm taking all my hopes uptown". Complete with obligatory La La choruses and an ecstatic Hammond organ solo. The epic "Holy Ghost Of Memphis' is an open tuned blues guitar trek through the murky waters of the Mississippi "Big boat is a-comin' the wheels are rocking in rhythm and rhyme" with moaning trombones, distorted lap steel, honky tonk blues piano and Holy Ghost revival organ. Deliver Me then explodes as the final track of funkiness, guitar and clavinette keyboard jamming' ecstasy "Deliver me from these visions that are haunting me" An unstoppable train ride!
