Whether they're talking about solo projects, [[American Music Club]] albums like ''[[Everclear]]'' and ''[[Mercury]]'', or the emotionally draining live shows, you can pretty much guarantee that at some point the words 'bleak', 'desolate' and maybe even 'suicidal' will be attached to any description of [[Mark Eitzel]] (pictured above). Usually in much the same breath as 'genius'. The familiar litany's inevitably going to be sounded again with the release of the eagerly awaited new AMC album, ''[[San Francisco]]''. However, maybe this time a few more will pull aside the veils of darkness and notice the smile lurking underneath. You see, in much the same way as Cohen twenty years before him, Eitzel's songs may be melancholy but they're also cathartic and, yes damn it, sometimes humorous. | Whether they're talking about solo projects, [[American Music Club]] albums like ''[[Everclear]]'' and ''[[Mercury]]'', or the emotionally draining live shows, you can pretty much guarantee that at some point the words 'bleak', 'desolate' and maybe even 'suicidal' will be attached to any description of [[Mark Eitzel]] (pictured above).
