Slow Dark Train is an album by the American band Vigilantes of Love, released in 1997.

[2][3] Some Christian stores refused to carry the album due to the inclusion of "Love Cocoon", a song about marital sex.

"[14] The Atlanta Journal-Constitution thought that the band's "ongoing romance with roots-rock turns into blind adoration here, as head Vigilante Bill Mallonee checks his usually intricate lyrics and pop sensibilities for the offhand, roadhouse vibe of Son Volt or Wilco.

"[10] The Windsor Star stated that the album "delivers messages of hope, commitment, and inner strength through Mallonee's subtle Christian beliefs.

"[13] The Dayton Daily News called it a "wrenching, poignant, anguished and a terrific piece of work.
