Notes

Outsider/In: The Collection delves into the mind and works of singer/songwriter Luke Haines, in many of his musical forms, offering a comprehensive and tell-all 2CD representation of a career steeped in controversy, ups - downs and everything in between.

The collection, compiled with the help of Luke Haines, features 34 tracks from across his career, rarities and a note from the well documented outsider of Britpop .
BBC Review
Luke Haines’ third ‘greatest hits’ collection, Outsider/In contains precisely zero top 40 singles. But this is still the most straightforward, least-cantankerous attempt yet made at capturing his early brilliance, mostly delivered under the banner of The Auteurs.

No doubt Haines’ recent oddball fame as Britpop-skewering memoirist and surprisingly affable documentary star prodded Outsider/In into production. Haines’ previous compilations, the Las-Vegas-indie reworkings of Das Capital and the oddities ‘n’ obscurities behemoth Luke Haines is Dead, were typically contrarian; but Outsider/In presents 36 of his finest early songs unadorned.

Showgirl immediately begins the wrong-footing: it kicks off as brash, jangling, garden variety indie pop before pausing, sighing with disdain, and proceeding on a far more languid, melancholic and beautiful path. Proceedings end with the wordless weirdness of Gsg-29, a grimy funk jam from Haines’ brief period working under the name of a West German terrorist gang, Baader Meinhof. That such provocation was not unusual for Haines may partly explain the general public’s stubborn resistance to his particular charms.

In between, the songs veer between eccentric and acidic (Death of Sarah Lucas’ shimmering, simmering loathing; Discomania’s sinister scuzz) and elegant and eloquent (Starstruck’s muted melancholy; The Rubettes’ nostalgia-dazzled swoon). The bruising, buzzsaw-glam of Lenny Valentino charted at 41, a typically Haines-ian near-miss. Most songs approach perfection, and at least two reach that rare and hallowed ground.

On the impossibly graceful The Upper Classes, Haines takes us on a slow stroll around the stately homes of England, his bloodied blade barely concealed beneath his tour guide’s uniform. Listen carefully and you can hear Jarvis Cocker scribbling notes. And in two sublime minutes, Unsolved Child Murder unfolds one of the most gorgeous, perfectly crafted melodies in all pop.

Haines’ small but rabid fanbase will no doubt grumble over certain omissions and admissions, but the above-noted two songs alone earn Haines his place as one of England’s greatest songwriters. “The next generation will get it from the start,” Haines once sneered at those overlooking his work. Outsider/In is a fine place for them to get started.

Album

Few performers have managed to give the swerve to whatever trend drove an era's music fashions quite as reliably as the redoubtable Luke Haines, former grey eminence souring the laddish spirit of Michael Haines born 7 October 1967 is an English musician, songwriter and author, who has recorded music under various names and with various bands, including The Auteurs, Baader Meinhof and Black Box Recorder. 1 History. Haines released one eponymous album under this moniker in 1996, which is named after the Baader Meinhof terrorist group. The sound was similar to that of The Auteurs, but more sparsely produced and with elements of funk and electronica, with lyrics, typically for the ever-contrary Haines, about terrorism.

In 2005 a compilation titled Luke Haines Is Dead was released, gathering a mixture of singles, outtakes, and rarities from his career. OutsiderIn is a more focused collection, packaged in a cover so hideous that it looks like Haines' jaw is slowly drooping into his chest. It's hard not to see that photograph as a deliberate aesthetic choice, although it's possible that Haines had little to do with the packaging of this compilation. Nick Cave went through a deliberate process of musical and personal uglification when he formed Grinderman, causing him to revel in a level of repug. Recorded live at Hoxton Pony, 19th Jan 2011. Massive thanks to funkygibbon for permission to use their audio with my video of this. Clickable links to slightly naff title of this budget two-disc Luke Haines compilation suggests that following the success of the old grouchs very funny books, the time has come for a reappraisal of his music by the mainstream. I couldnt agree more. The Auteurs are possibly the most what-if British group of their era. Imagine if Blur had tanked after Modern Life Is Rubbish or Suede folded after Bernard Butler left. Okay, the Auteurs made it to three albums How I Learned To Love The Bootboys being a Haines solo effort in all but name but theres definitely a sense of unfinished business to their oeuvre. Luke Haines third greatest hits collection, OutsiderIn contains precisely zero top 40 singles.

Third time around, and presumably with some needling from old label EMI to capitalise on the upcoming Art Will Save The World documentary, comes the double-CD OutsiderIn: The Collection. Haines claims to hate the reworkings. They're actually alright. Disc two runs from 1996-2003, bookended with four Baader Meinhof songs but with just 'The Rubettes' to represent The Auteurs' last album How I Learned to Love the Bootboys
