The Cardinals' final album, Cardinology, saw Adams returning to a more focused, melodic rock sound after the experimental detour of 'Easy Tiger.' It stands as a solid, if somewhat understated, closing statement for the band.
- The album was produced by Ryan Adams himself, alongside the noted producer/engineer Jamie Candiloro.
- Upon release, Cardinology debuted at number 119 on the Billboard 200 chart.
- The album was the last to feature the 'classic' lineup of the Cardinals, with guitarist Neal Casal and bassist Chris Wyse departing shortly after its release.
Ryan Adams is a prolific American alt-country and rock singer-songwriter from Jacksonville, North Carolina, who first gained attention in the early 2000s. The Cardinals were his long-standing backing band, with whom he recorded many of his most acclaimed albums.
