six organs of admittance

Six Organs Of Admittance has just kicked off their most expansive European tour in a long time, including Portugal, UK, Ireland, Benelux, the Iberian Peninsula, Scandinavia, Central and Eastern Europe.

Following last year’s ‘Locust Land’, his most diverse album yet, Bill MacKay shares details of his EU tour, including Ireland co-headline dates with Brigid Mae Power and a London date with labelmate Six Organs of Admittance.

Jinxed by Being, the new collaboration from Shackleton & Six Organs of Admittance, is as uneasy as it is beautiful…Collaborations of this quality are vanishingly rare.

The one apparently simple thing that has always made Six Organs of Admittance stand out from the crowd is his ability to create cerebral music that’s brimful of soul, and ‘Time is Glass’ is a perfect example of that winning combination.

Six Organs of Admittance, the long-running moniker of Ben Chasny, announces his 21st album, Time is Glass, out April 26th via Drag City, and shares its lead single/video, “The Mission” – a nod to the acid-folk of Current 93 and the cosmic pop of Chris Bell’s Big Star.  

With Companion Rises, Chasny has done something even more intriguing than usual: by pushing the experimental envelope further than before he has somehow emerged with a collection of songs that are amongst the most immediately rewarding of his twenty-plus year career.

Six Organs of Admittance’s Ben Chasny returns with his third Hexadic instalment which conveys a shared mode from a wide span of performers including Meg Baird, Moon Duo, Jenks Miller (Mount Moriah) and more.

It is ‘Burning The Threshold’s’ tangible atmosphere as much as its songcraft that makes it one of Ben Chasny’s (Six Organs of Admittance) most accomplished and accessible releases to date.

Six Organs of Admittance announces acoustic follow-up to Hexadic. What may identify to some ears as folk music is caught in an equally compelling undertow of powerful subterranean energy. Hexadic II is simultaneously more inviting and challenging, listen to Exultation Wave.

In a new video Ben Chasney (Six Organs of Admittance) , talks through and demonstrates the Hexadic system he used on his latest album. A book has now been released for those that fancy digging deeper – How to Party with Long-dead Occult Philosophers, Math, and your guitar.

Our Song of the Day is a live video recording from a couple of years ago at Cecil Sharp House: Six Organs Of Admittance performing ‘Black Needles Rhymes’.

If you like your music more experimental and “out there” then try this for size. This is an exclusive and digital-only compilation created by Brad Rose, founder of the Digitalis label, out of the three volumes of the incredible “Gold Leaf Branches”.
