Six organs of Admittance?

man, i have so, so, so been wanting nightly trembling to get reissued... yeah, the early stuff was great.

"that's some spiritual shit right there"

hopefully the triple LP isn't going to be retardedly expensive?

What would drone-folk do without inflated prices?

make more cdrs.

"Warm Earth Which I've Been Shown" and "You Can Always See the Sun" are two of my favorite Six Organs tracks. I picked up that Mental Telemetry split at Terrastock 5 in Boston and listened to it on my flight back to the midwest. Seriously haunting shit. "You can Always See the Sun" is a nice contrast to that, it's like his most triumphant and optimistic epic. This is gonna be a nice set.

hey Ned what label?

drag city, right?

Yes, Drag City.

Exciting that the track from the Charalambides split is gonna be available! That track is amazing. Now all we need is a new album...

re: a new album, tbh if they just kept rolling out stuff from his early years' vaults i'd be happier....

tho i should probably give his newer albums more of a chance

I've got that Time lag split.It's really good & part of a 2 record set that was officially titled "A Tribute to Popul Vuh".And his newer stuff is as good & he manages not to repeat himself to obviously.Check out some of his work on the latest Magik Markers. Warm Earth is from the Trighplane Terraforms disc.They were selling it at he Gladtree Festival a few years ago.About 18 minutes of trippiness.It will nice to have all of this music in one place.

Mackro to thread....

I will be at this!!!

Nice. Got a review copy of the comp today, looks v. good.

Can't wait to hear the compilation.

"RTZ"'s out, any word?

will likely get this either way, though how much of it has already been available/floating around the web? i've got quite a few random, out-of-print or non-album six organs mp3s, am just wondering if this has 'from the vaults' stuff on it that hasn't seen any previous release?

IT'S GREAT

but all of it is previously released save the last 19 minute track on disc one. it is HIGHLY recommended, though, especially if you dig the early, epic six organs stuff.

nice.

yea, i'll be getting this.

I'm thinking about getting it even though I've got the Nightly Trembling LP and the Triplane Terraforms CD and a CDR with You Can Always See the Sun on it. This is my favorite Six Organs stuff, without a doubt.

yea definitely. i listen to this stuff + dust & chimes/dark noontide the most by far

My interview with him for the Quietus hasn't run yet but hopefully soon!

a CDR with You Can Always See the Sun on it

Is this not widely available? I have it on a one-song CD EP, came out on Three Lobed if I recall...

My buddy burned it for me. I think it is probably out of print? I thought it was maybe a subscription only thing.

RTX is really, really good! Might even be my fave thing by Six Organs!

just checked, three lobed website says "OOP." I guess that's probably why there's a reissue on Drag City.

I will probably pick up the 3LP on the way home from work this evening. Looking forward to it, haven't heard any of this stuff...

Yeah, I really need to pick this up over the weekend.

RTZ 3lp was $20 at Rasputin SF. Not bad at all. Haven't listened yet tho.

Okay, my interview with Ben is up at the Quietus:

Really enjoyed doing this piece but Ben did all the heavy lifting, to his credit.

Good article, Ned.

Thanks!

anybody know anything about this "live bootleg" lp that i saw in the shop yesterday?

is it Days of Blood? or something else. There's a new one coming in September, btw -- wasn't sure if I was into it at first, but it's grown on me big time. Kind of softer than the last one, but still intense.

yeah, Days of Blood i guess. Maybe it's not a bootleg, but that's the store had written on the sticker ...

It's an electric set IIRC and pretty decent sound quality but nothing life-changing.

wow 1st track on the new one is lovely. lots of flute, but good flute.

great album. favorite drag city one
this
http://www.dustedmagazine.com/features/840
is a somewhat interesting interview

ha, that guy writes goofy reviews. interestingly, Chasny just responded to it: http://dustedmagazine.com/features/840 Kind of a cool feature Dusted has going there.

yeah, that's the one i put there. the original review was glowing. i'm loving the album. intentionally or not, first song and "bar-nasha" smack of early steve hackett solo stuff

oh oops, you did link to that ... my bad! but yeah, I'm liking this new one more and more, maybe a bit more than the last one, which I like a lot at first, but haven't gone back to that much.

I should pick this up. Haven't loved the Drag City stuff all that much, tho.

looking forward to this album. but reviews like that are why i don't read reviews anymore.

so, first listen to the new one and the vocals on "anesthesia" are actually giving me a bruce dickinson vibe!

"Haven't loved the Drag City stuff all that much, tho."

School of the Flower is my favorite thing he's done, though I can't say I've listened to the last two albums all that much after a once-through

yeah, I love school of the flower too. but none of the other DC stuff made an impression.

Just got home from seeing them live. Fricking awesome, as you might expect.

who is them? i mean, who's playing with ben?

Elisa Ambrogio – guitar
Andrew Mitchell – guitar
Alex Neilson – drums

so you're in vienna too.....

i didn't go though...

Anyone jumped for this book/soundtrack thing yet?

Lucky enough to have a copy, but haven't settled in to read it yet. Saw a show in LA where Ben et al played and Joseph read from a selection of the novel a while back, pretty impressive.
