Rating: 74.00
Genre: Psychedelic Guitar Rock
Former Plague Lounge guitarist Ben Chasny formed Six Organs of Admittance in 1998 in Northern California. Heavily instrumentals, with diving guitar solos, and large dash of psychedelia, this album is almost universally adored by the critics. On a song-by-song basis, I can't get to the same place, but taken as a whole, it's a trippy, blast of an album, mostly deserving of the acclaim.
(The album is not currently available on Spotify, so I've resorted to Youtube versions.)The opener, Waswasa is pretty much a kick-ass, five-and-a-half minute guitar solo. It's followed by the drugged out Close To The Sky, which could have been done by the Doors, if they'd existed in 2012. Visions (From IO) is a spacey, slow burner that reminds me a little of Space Oddity-era David Bowie.
