Mark Kozelek Albums From Worst To Best

14. Mark Kozelek - What's Next To The Moon (2001): Even in 2001, rearranging unlikely source material into something devastating was well-covered ground for Kozelek -- he had given such treatment to songs by Genesis, The Cars, John Denver, Kiss, Yes and others at that point -- so for fans, his choice to record an entire album of Bon Scott-era AC/DC material wasn't exactly a shock. But even at a scant 10 songs over 30 minutes, What's Next To The Moon seems to drag. The lyrics occasionally feel ironic rather than revelatory, and the vocal and instrumental arrangements lack the dynamics that make Kozelek's best work so moving.
