Remastered by Mike Westbrook of MW Audio! Indie Exclusive Coloured Vinyl. Iris DeMent released Infamous Angel in 1992. Nearly 30 years later, the album remains among the most singular and fully realized singer-songwriter debuts since the invention of that category in the early ’70s. The abiding strengths of the album are especially impressive, even a bit startling, because 1992 is not a moment usually associated with her intimate brand of acoustic country music. In country history, the year 1992 is most immediately affiliated with Garth Brooks, whose album The Chase topped both the country and pop album charts that year, and with Billy Ray Cyrus’ “Achy Breaky Heart,” which fueled a line dance craze. Squeezed into a playlist alongside such hits, DeMent’s doleful, hushed “Our Town” would’ve sounded as if it were being broadcast from another planet. “People call me country,” she told journalist Ben Thompson while on tour in Britain a couple years later. “But country doesn’t call me country.” Let’s call her country. The genre is always more expansive than what radio stations program. It happened Infamous Angel is close kin to a different sort of country music that was just then having a moment: specifically, country singer-songwriters, focusing on personal, but universal, loss and hope and favoring small acoustic combos. It may have been out of step with the mainstream, but Infamous Angel arrived right on time. A remarkable debut, Infamous Angel established Iris DeMent as one of the greatest artists of her generation. With her gift for poignant, confessional songwriting and a voice that makes raw beauty seem like a brand new thing, she invokes the elemental magic of the Carter Family while sounding as fresh and modern as John Prine…this is an album to be cherished and played as long as one has life to listen. -Jim Smith, AllMusic.com, 5/5 stars Artist Iris DeMent Genre Americana / Country Label Yep Roc Buying Options 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings Let the Mystery Be These Hills Hotter Than Mojave in My Heart When Love Was Young Our Town Fifty Miles of Elbow Room Infamous Angel Sweet Forgiveness After You've Gone Mama's Opry Higher Ground Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Iris DeMent and more from Americana / Country Paul's picks View Product Quick View Iris DeMent Infamous Angel (30th Anniversary Edition) Americana / Country | Yep Roc | 1LP Released 4th November 2022 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Iris DeMent Infamous Angel (30th Anniversary Edition) £23.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Yep Roc SKU: LPYEP2561 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 4th November 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Willie Nelson For The Good Times: A Tribute To Ray Price Americana / Country | Sony Music | 1LP Released 12th September 2016 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Willie Nelson For The Good Times: A Tribute To Ray Price £19.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Sony Music SKU: 88985314241 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 12th September 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Rhett Miller The Misfit Americana / Country | ATO | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 14th October 2022 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Rhett Miller The Misfit £20.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: ATO SKU: ATO0600LP Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 14th October 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Emmylou Harris Studio Albums: 1980-1983 Americana / Country | RSD2019 | 5LP Released 13th April 2019 £118.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Emmylou Harris Studio Albums: 1980-1983 £118.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: RSD2019 SKU: RSD2019066 Formats: 5LP Released Date: 13th April 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Drive-By Truckers This Weekends The Night Americana / Country | ATO | 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 9th February 2016 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Drive-By Truckers This Weekends The Night £21.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: ATO SKU: ATO0283 Formats: 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 9th February 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dolly Parton Puppy Love Americana / Country | Yep Roc | 7", Single Released 22nd April 2017 £10.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dolly Parton Puppy Love £10.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Yep Roc SKU: RSD17025 Formats: 7", Single Released Date: 22nd April 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ferris & Sylvester Otherness Americana / Country | Archtop Records | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 1st March 2024 £28.00 - £30.00 Select options Ferris & Sylvester Otherness £28.00 - £30.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Archtop Records Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 1st March 2024 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Bobby Bare Jr Undefeated Americana / Country | Bloodshot | 1LP Released 14th April 2014 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bobby Bare Jr Undefeated £16.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Bloodshot SKU: BS218LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 14th April 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Van Dyke Parks Discover America Americana / Country | Bella Union | 1LP, Includes CD Released 18th June 2012 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Van Dyke Parks Discover America £20.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Bella Union SKU: BELLAV344 Formats: 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 18th June 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Pink Stones, The Introducing Americana / Country | Normal Town | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 28th March 2024 £14.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Pink Stones, The Introducing £14.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Normal Town SKU: nn283442 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 28th March 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Lily & Madeleine The Weight Of The Globe Americana / Country | Asthmatic Kitty Records | 10", EP/Mini Album Released 10th June 2013 £10.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lily & Madeleine The Weight Of The Globe £10.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Asthmatic Kitty Records SKU: AKR116LP Formats: 10", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 10th June 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Americana / Country Start again
