Conquest Slaughter starts off with "The Man With The Curse On His Head" and after the first listen you very well may fall completely head-over-heels in love with this release. The lyrics and instrumentation that Lenz unravels are clear-cut and pure. I’ve had this release in heavy rotation ever since it came through our doors late last year. Mr. Lenz has constructed a lush, wonderfully drowsy, and ghostly blend of S/T-era Emitt Rhodes meets Mercury Rev’s Deserter's Songs.
