Surgery 316 : Six Organs of Admittance

Whenever there is a new Six Organs of Admittance album released it sends me into their back catalogue to remind myself, however unnecessarily, of how great Ben Chasny's work has been over the last decade and a half. Time is Glass, released this past Friday on Drag City is a wonderful and welcome addition to the canon, and caps this chronological overview of the Six Organs catalogue.
