The Suicide Handbook

[edit]
Untitled

The Suicide Handbook is one of many unreleased albums by Ryan Adams, recorded at Javelina Studios in Nashville, Tennessee sometime in early 2001 (possibly January) soon before Adams' album Gold was recorded.

In Q Magazine, September 2007 edition, Adams states regarding the Suicide Handbook album, 'The album was supposed to be on Lost Highway (record label). It would have been the follow up to Heartbreaker. It was about some really heavy stuff and it's just.....I mean it is amazing. Beautiful strings. If anything it's my most majestic piece ever'.

In another interview from Harp magazine, Adams recalls the turmoil he was experiencing at the time: "I was really stressed out. I had a lot of personal things going on that were more than I could handle. Everyone was worried about me. I'd lost all this weight; there was a lot of Seconol involved. It was just a real bad time." Adams also recalls the studio session with fellow musician Bucky Baxter: "Bucky [Baxter] and I decided to go into Javelina [Studios], which was RCA Two, Chet Atkins' room. We had one microphone, and I taught Buck the songs right before we played them. We did the original version of 'Answering Bell,' which was called 'Just Saying Hi' with different words. We did it all in one day, 21 tunes." [1]

It is a subdued acoustic record similar to Heartbreaker, but in contrast to Gold's higher level of production and more complex musical arrangements. Like Heartbreaker, it has a sad, sentimental tone concerning the breakup of an intimate relationship (while the title of "Idiots Rule the World" might indicate political overtones, Adams has claimed when playing it live that "it's about not being able to score chicks").

Suicide Handbook is traded amongst bootleg collectors. It contains audible pops and other audio infidelities that are the result of the original audio transfer from the master recording.
