Blacklisted by Neko Case
Blacklisted is an album by Neko Case, released in 2002. 3 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 8 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Deep Red Bells”, on 5 lists with a best position of #160.
Blacklisted, Neko Case's third studio album, came out on Bloodshot on August 20, 2002, and it's the sound of a singer slipping the fences of the alt-country scene that claimed her first two solo records. The twang hasn't vanished, but it's been stretched into something darker and roomier, a haunted-ballroom hush of reverb and slow, smoldering arrangements, with that huge voice, the one critics like to compare to a flamethrower, left to roam the empty spaces.
She brought an eclectic crew along: Howe Gelb, Kelly Hogan, Mary Margaret O'Hara, Dallas Good, Joey Burns and John Convertino all turn up. "Deep Red Bells", "Things That Scare Me" and "I Wish I Was the Moon" have found their way onto rock radio's countdowns in recent years, long after the record first appeared. It kept selling, passing 113,000 copies in the US by 2009, and Fox Confessor Brings the Flood came next.
