Album DescriptionGus Black writes bittersweet pop songs with genuine emotion. Uncivilized Love, the follow-up to the critically acclaimed Word of Mouth Parade, is a collection of exquisitely crafted songs marked by Black?s evocative, acoustic-based backdrops and warm, supple vocals. Word of Mouth Parade, released on Almo Sounds in 1999 under the name Gus, featured the free-flowing lead single "Laugh I Could Learn To Love." That album drew nationwide radio play including regular support by KCRW, a cult following and critical adoration. Now, Uncivilized Love, co-produced by Wally Gagei (eels, Old 97?s, Folk Implosion), features memorable songs like "Dry Kisses" and "Cadillac Tears" and a completely original rendering of Black Sabbath?s "Paranoid."
