Another RSD exclusive surfaces in the internet distro broth. Eight Trails, One Path is a fine collection of (you guessed it) eight guitar-based pieces from all of your favorite guitar-based musicians. I’m talking Six Organs of Admittance and Lee Ronaldo here, just to name a couple. The greatest thing about this album is that it [...]

I really wanted to like the new Iron & Wine album. I really did. Sorry Sam Beam, but Ben Chasny is my go-to acoustic heart-throb for 2011 (and probably every year after). Asleep On The Floodplain tries less than half as hard and sounds ten times as lush and emotive as the aforementioned major label [...]

The brainchild of Simon Joyner and Ben Goldberg, The Grapefruit Record Club is an annual vinyl subscription series that, as of now, is looking awesome.  For $90 shipped in the US, you get records from Lambchop, Richard Youngs, L. Eugene Methe, and 200 Years (aka Ben Chasny aka Six Organs of Admittance).  If you don’t [...]

Well I truly had no idea what this album was about, but I know that new wax on Drag City is nothing to turn your nose up at and since the label was kind enough to send us some mp3s, well, I gave it a listen. It becomes pretty apparent within the first 10 seconds [...]

Not sure how this Six Organs of Admittance release almost managed to slither by me undetected. Empty the Sun is the soundtrack for a book by Joseph Mattson. Very convenient for you, that you can pick them both up at the same time for merely $20 (the book that accompanies the LP is 12×12 inches). [...]

PSF in Japan recently released this Split LP from Ben Chasny and Usui Hiroyuki aka Six Organs of Admittance and Azul. For those of us who do not know how to order records in Japanese, this is now available at a few US distros. It’s going to set you back about $22 at forcedexposure.com or [...]

Been sitting around for like a week now, waiting for some exciting vinyl news to roll around and lift up my spirits. I couldn’t have asked for much better than a pre-order for the new Six Organs of Admittance LP, coming out August 18th on the Drag City Catalog. The new album finds Ben Chasny [...]

You can now preorder a new triple LP from Comets on Fire member Ben Chasny’s side project Six Organs of Admittance.  “RTZ” compiles a number of out of print EP’s on three slabs of wax.  The price is $22, the release date is January 20th (weird, same exact info as the Andrew Bird release).  Visit [...]
