When I interviewed Janet Weiss in London last year, the drummer talked enthusiastically about Sleater-Kinney's experience recording their latest album, The Woods, with revered engineer Dave Fridmann. The result was arguably the band's best album to date.

When the Going Gets Dark. I Don't Know You Anymore. Beyond the Sky. Presto Change-o. MusicBrainz: When the Going Gets Dark.

When the Going Gets Dark is an album by Quasi. It was released on March 21, 2006 on Touch and Go Records. It was released in Europe by Domino Records. Sam Coomes – guitar, vocals. Janet Weiss – drums, vocals. Dave Fridmann – mixing, producer. Jacob Hall – recording engineer. Steven Wray Lobdell – recording engineer. William McCurtin – cover painting. Roger Seibel – mastering. Kendra Wright – recording engineer.

This is certainly something that shows here, and Quasi’s retro rawk certainly makes for a nice distraction for Domino as they shift a million Arctic Monkeys cds a minute (this may not be tru. When The Going Gets Dark’ is the bands first studio record as their last were recorded at home, and it was recorded by none other than Dave Fridmann, who worked on the last Sleater Kinney album.

When The Going Gets Dark Lyrics. When you told me if you can't beat 'em, join 'em I was thinking death before dishonor As you lord over your front porch Getting drunk with your neighbor Well I might wander all day Across the Milky Way But I'll be Joan of Arc when the going gets dark.

When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going" is a 1985 song co-written and originally recorded by English singer Billy Ocean in 1985. Written by Wayne Brathwaite, Barry Eastmond, Mutt Lange and Billy Ocean, the song was used as the theme song for the Michael Douglas film, The Jewel of the Nile. The saxophone solo is by Vernon Jeffrey Smith

But I'll be Joan of Arc when the going gets dark. Or get out of the way, get with the program. Welcome to the real world! Is that what is real.

Their stripped-down, yet frenetic approach to pop songcraft shines through on When the Going Gets Dark. Not as political as their last effort, Hot Shit, the new album shifts attention to the instrumental side of Quasi, with "Presto Change-o" perfectly distilling their insistent and sinister balance of sound. In fact, that song is positioned in the stellar middle section, together with "Peace and Love" and "Beyond the Sky" - songs that nicely utilize the gauzy psych-inclined mixing talents of Dave Fridmann.
