Listening to any Greg Dulli project is like staring into the soul of a man completely at ease with his own self-disdain. Seeing Dulli live takes that same into-the-man’s-soul glare and makes it a bit more literal. But Dulli has never toured solo before, so at least all that delving into the darkness of man gets filtered through a full-band setup. This fall, Dulli’s going on his first solo tour, so that just leaves you, Dulli, and a whole bunch of bleak despair. Other things to endure include the debut of some new songs from the forthcoming Twilight Singers album on Sub Pop come 2011. Sure, there will be other people in the audience, but the former Afghan Whigs frontman is so intense, it may not feel like it.
