Six Organs of Admittance: “Waswasa” from Ascent (Drag City, 8/21/12)
Six Organs of Admittance: “Waswasa”
An undulating, tripped-out space opera, Ascent is the latest from guitarist Ben Chasny’s psych-folk project Six Organs of Admittance — here joined for an electric, full-band lineup by his Comets on Fire bandmates. “Waswasa” opens the album with a raw energy that quickly redirects to sway — from swagger into roaring, abstract planes of amped-up guitar on “Close to the Sky.”
Pretty cool list of songs for 2012.
