Ex-lovers ExSage are the full embodiment of everything that is mystical and transformative about desert rock. Their latest offering, a sludgy track titled, “Tripwire,” was produced by the great Alain Johannes (Mark Lanegan, Them Crooked Vultures, Brody Dalle, Queens of the Stone age) so you know the pairing was bound to be a perfect sonic fit.
