20th anniversary 2xLP reissue of Flags Of The Sacred Harp, a transcendent masterpiece of free-folk, gospel-drone, and psychedelic Americana. A re-imagining of traditional hymns and anthems from the original American songbook that was first published in 1844. This long-awaited repress revives a landmark recording of collective improvisation and spiritual exploration and includes bonus downloads of archival tracks and unreleased live recordings.

Imagine The Velvet Underground’s ‘Sweet Nuthin’ fed through a spirit glass; a super slow incantation haunted by the ghosts of the band’s 40 transient members. Mystical folkisms cluster as the songs come in and out of focus and their improvisational slew matures. Recorded at Supreme Reality studios in Portland over the summer of 2005; Tom Greenwood had just returned to the City following a few years of touring and began recording over several marathon sessions.

Formed in 1994, Jackie O-Motherfucker is an ever-morphing collective nudging the American experimental scene, drawing from a variety of subgenres including folk from around the world, drone, free jazz, psychedelia, and noise rock.
 

"Flags of the Sacred Harp stands as Jackie-O Motherfucker's most potent and focused liturgy"
Pitchfork ★★★★

“The ramshackle free rock collective has developed a liberating aesthetic of harmonious noise as a bulwark against the forces of conservatism and commodification.”
The Wire
