Sad & Dangerous
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Dirty Three emerged from Australia in the mid-'90s as part of a post-rock awakening, proving that guitar, violin, and drums alone could generate extraordinary emotional and textural range. Sad and Dangerous, recorded in 1996 on Big Cat Records, captures the trio—guitarist Mick Turner, violinist Warren Ellis, and drummer Jim White—in their raw, improvisational prime. The music builds from sparse, tentative beginnings into climactic waves of sound, driven by Ellis's restless violin lines and White's forceful, jazz-informed drumming. Turner's guitar often sits somewhere between melody and texture, allowing space for the other instruments to move. This is instrumental rock that feels utterly contemporary for its moment, eschewing both metal's bombast and jazz's technical display in favor of carefully constructed emotional architecture. A definitive statement from three musicians whose interplay defines the potential of guitar-based post-rock.
