Primal Scream major-domo Bobby Gillespie has steered his ship through all manner of choppy musical waters over the years, from MC5-inspired bashing to woozy electronica to brittle industrial techno. But no matter what the context, one thing remains constant in Gillespie's sonic vision: His music is meant to convey (and enhance) a mood of substance-fueled revelry and/or dissipation. That's certainly the case on Riot City Blues, a raw-boned set that recalls the Rolling Stones circa Sticky Fingers, both in its sound -- which leans heavily on country-blues influences -- and its vibe, a celebration of debauchery the likes of which don't come along often these days. The raucous "Country Girl" -- on which it's easy to imagine beer bottles breaking in the background -- sets the tone perfectly, with mandolins and twangy guitars framing Gillespie's booze-soaked drawl in smoky tones. What follows is, by and large, meat-and-potatoes rock with roots about as deep as redwoods. Sometimes, as on "Sweet Rock and Roll" and "We're Gonna Boogie," it's necessary to tune out Gillespie's simplistic lyrical stance in order to concentrate on the riffage at hand. Then again, the singer manages to tap into some primordial emotion when he's in the mood, most notably on the aching closer, "Sometimes I Feel So Lonely." It's that confluence of moods -- boozy bacchanalia and hung-over regret -- that makes Riot City Blues so easy to relate to, and get lost in.
