At the Cut
2009 studio album by Vic Chesnutt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
At the Cut is a 2009 album by Vic Chesnutt. It was his penultimate album release before his death on December 25, 2009, from an overdose of muscle relaxants.[3] The song "Flirted with You All My Life" alludes to Chesnutt's own attitude toward suicide, including his previous attempts to take his own life. Along with North Star Deserter, this album features various members from the Canadian post-rock band Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra, as well as Fugazi's vocalist and guitarist Guy Picciotto.[4] Anecdotal Evidence, a short film by Jem Cohen, was shot during one of Chesnutt's final recording sessions at the Hotel2Tango in Montreal.[5]
