Clairvoyance doesn't lack the lyrical talents of Lanegan and co., but what it does is endearing and memorable tracks. "Orange Airplane" is a good starter for the album, but steadily declines into obscurity with less is more approach that falls flat on its face. The production as well is a low point, even if the Screaming Trees were never backed with much support early in their career it seems to seep through on Clairvoyance, for the worst.
