专辑简介
"I recorded killers and stars, by myself in the dining room of the house where i was living, in early March, 2001. I had just gotten divorced, was fighting with the band (Drive-By Truckers) and a good number of my friends. I was feeling pretty freaked out and isolated and this album was my therapy. Most of the songs were new. I recorded the album in two consecutive nights, then ran down some rough mixes myself (with no outboard sweetening at all) about a week later. I hastily pressed up a few hundred copies, made a cover for them, and sold them at my solo shows as a '1st draft/work in progress.'
Then the band hit the road and spent the next 14 months touring. killers and stars sort of got left behind. I really all but forgot about it. We were all busy writing and recording for our next album, touring, and just day-to-day living.
A couple of years went by and copies of the album kept getting passed around. Occasionally i would press up a few for some solo shows here or there and occasionally I would give some thought to actually finishing it. Recently I dug a copy out and gave it a serious listen. In some respects it was like listening to someone else. Most of the demons that inspired these songs have long since been laid to rest (or at least replaced by others), but the album kinda holds up for what it is."
