For a (mostly) vocal album, there is a lot of stuff going on with some of the tracks. Good album for a serious fan but I didn't find it too memorable.
That's basically how I look at Selma Songs.

"Satchel's debut album, EDC, is '90s alterna-rock at its finest and most original. Leaving the then-popular grunge sound at the door, Satchel embarks on a new musical style, combining gentle ballads and near-metal rockers with drum loops, guitar heroics, and ultra-talented Shawn Smith's high-pitched vocals and piano. Shards of Prince's funk, Queen's grandeur, and Led Zeppelin's almighty heavy groove come bubbling to the surface, but the band incorporates these already established elements into their own sound. The album is loosely based on the then-little-known movie Reservoir Dogs, with song titles named after characters in the movie, even including dialogue clips between tracks. The album's track sequencing is also masterfully done; after listening to EDC, you really do feel like you've accomplished a far-reaching musical journey. Since the album is so consistent, it's hard to pick highlights."

"Just about every rock & roller nowadays lists '70s rock as a major influence, but few rockers are down with the misunderstood genius Prince. Unlike others, though, Satchel has no problem admitting their worship of the Purple One.

Satchel's roots lay in the band Brad, which was originally put together as a one-shot side project for Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard. It was essentially an excuse for a group of friends to unwind and make music for the sheer fun of it. After releasing the album Shame in 1992, Gossard returned to Pearl Jam, while drummer Regan Hagar and singer Smith decided to form a permanent band. Their debut, EDC, was released in 1994, and was an unfortunately overlooked masterpiece . "

I have them on my "To check out" list – I suppose I should check 'em out!
Probably a good soundtrack to the death and dying debacle in the other thread…
