Six Organs of Admittance - Nightly Trembling (1999)


Meditative experimental/free folk with haunting acoustic riffs and hypnotic chanting which gets into weird mantra folk jams at times. Because of stuff like this, I view SOAA to the folk realm what Om is to doom/stoner.


It is only necessary to destroying oneself the roots of those motives which determine a man's course, in order to enjoy the omnipotence and immunity of a god

Six Organs of Admittance - School of the Flower (2005)


A relaxing dosage of psych folk. Primarily instrumental and acoustic but sometimes resorts to gentle vocals, background ambiance and electric freakouts. Also includes a sweet cover of Gary Higgins' Thicker Than a Smokey. One of the first albums I heard from SOOA's flawless discography.


Above all, there was fear. Fear of today, fear of tomorrow, fear of our neighbors, and fear of ourselves.
