Ripper's note: This is the Japanese edition, with a bonus track
entitled "The Grave".
This is the highly-anticipated fifth full-length JOMF release,
their first in three years. Jackie-O Motherfucker was formed in
1994 by Tom Greenwood and Nester Bucket layering guitars and
sax over hand-cut analog tape loops and collage, collections of
found sound, field recordings, cut-up classic rock, hip-hop
beats and 4-tracked drones. Assembled and processed, the band
rehearsed often in the basement of an abandoned drug store on
Mississippi St. in North Portland. The first live performances
featured an amplified reel-to-reel tape machine and electric
guitar while additions of live percussion, 8-track tapes, alto
sax, and a turntable filled out the sound. After a US/European
tour in the late summer of 2003 the East Coast configuration of
JOMF temporarily dissolved, with members returning to Brooklyn
and Montreal. The group re-assembled in Portland and recording
sessions began for Flags of the Sacred Harp. Honey Owens
returned to working with the group again, having departed after
Fig. 5 to work with her other group Nudge. The new
configuration also includes guitarist Adam Forkner (Yumi Bitsu,
Whiterainbow, Devendra Banhart). Over a year in the making,
Flags of the Sacred Harp displays the group's patient and
evolved songwriting style with historic references to American
blues and hymns. One of the most focused and sublime releases
from Jackie-O Motherfucker, the release contains songs that are
all manifestations, mutations and re-interpretations of old
blues and gospel, specifically from an old hymnal called "The
Sacred Harp." Three lush, beautiful vocal arrangements on each
side of a 17-minute soaring instrumental making a total of 7
songs unfolding over 70+ minutes. Flags of the Sacred Harp is
an epic recording documenting the group's maturing skills in
writing, arranging and production and is a timeless de-
construction of American music.
