Six Organs of Admittance is basically just one man (but what a man!) - Ben Chasny, along with whomever he ropes in for recording or for shows. This man-band started in 1997 when Ben self- released his first LP in an edition of 400, little dreaming that one day Six Organs of Admittance would sell 37 times as many records. It was just something that was destined to happen - but that was the beginning of the happening.
Over the years, Six Organs of Admittance has had many releases on a variety of labels, most notably Holy Mountain. During this time, Six Organs of Admittance became one of the most infulential sounds in the free world. In 2005, Ben found a home at Drag City and released the landmark album, School of the Flower. Free jazz ninja drum master Chris Corsano joined Ben and the results were a perfect blend of melody, out-folk, minimalism and noise, getting much critical applause and ending up on year-end best-of-the-year lists by magazines such as Mojo, Wire, and Magnet.
2006 sees the release of the best Six Organs release yet. The Sun Awakens features some of the most feedback-drenched, dark, cult-chanting, completely beautiful music ever released by the band. The everlasting goal of expansion - any kind of expansion you can imagine - has been tapped once again by the living entity known as Six Organs of Admittance.
Ben also appears .. City as one-half of August Born with his hero Hiroyuki Usui. He has played in the touring band of Bonnie 'Prince' Billy and plays guitar in the bands Current 93, Badgerlore, and Comets on Fire.
after long hours (around the 30th to 40th) of straight painting listening to metal your music helps me find a touch of inner solitude. the pot helps as well. thanks.
Thanks for the add. I enjoy your music. What a workmanship of the melody! And 'Shelter from the Ash' is a terrific masterpiece. Come back soon in Grenoble. Take care.
