Holy Smoke (Peter Murphy album)
''Holy Smoke'' is the fourth solo studio album by English musician Peter Murphy. It was released on 14 April 1992 through Beggars Banquet Records. Produced by Mike Thorne, tha album features contributions from Alison Limerick, Jonathan Carney, Audrey Riley and The Hundred Man, his backing band since 1988's ''Love Hysteria'' album.
Although the album couldn't meet with the commercial success of its predecessor, ''Deep'' (1990), it peaked at number 108 on ''Billboard'' 200 chart.〔 The lead single off the album, "The Sweetest Drop", peaked at number 2 on Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart.〔
==Critical reception==
Ned Raggett of Allmusic was mixed in his assessment of the album. He stated: "Released in the initial craze of the grunge/alternative mega-crossover, ''Smoke''s elegant ballads and angular, arty rockers simply didn't fit in." Nevertheless, he also described the album as a "quite a strong release, due to "avoiding any cloning of ''Deep'' or "Cuts You Up" in favor of a different approach meant to bring out the band's live power more directly." He also praised Mike Thorne's production work, commenting that it gives the album "a crisp, solid punch throughout, even during its quieter moments."〔 Bill Wyman of ''Entertainment Weekly'' also praised the albums "sophisticated" production, calling it as "lush and very adult." He also wrote: "When the music and lyrics come together, it's almost touching, as on the sardonically named "Hit Song", which sounds to me like a vampire pleading for his mortality back."〔
