Former Belle & Sebastian singer Isobel Campbell and ex-Screaming Trees/The Twilight Singers/QOTSA collaborator Mark Lanegan return with their third album together. Recorded in such disparate places as California, Texas, Louisiana, Denmark, Edinburgh and her native Glasgow, “Hawk” is a pan-continental affair.

There’s folk, country, blues, gospel, dream-pop and a fair spoonful of Southern soul. The pair rejoins after now having recorded together both the Mercury-nominated album “Ballad Of The Broken Seas” (2006) and the smoldering “Sunday At Devil Dirt” (2008). “Hawk” - written, produced and arranged by Campbell - is altogether more expansive. Ace American songwriter Willy Mason guests on two songs and as an added bonus, James Iha, guitarist of Smashing Pumpkins, appears on the record. While there’s not only a wider sweep of styles there’s often a more urgent approach. “Get Behind Me” and “You Won’t Let Me Down” are cases in point.
