Hawk & Hacksaw, Mountain Man, Six Organs Of Admittance u.a.

Whilst researching A Hawk And A Hacksaw‘s newest offering, Cervantine, I came across this quote from Jim Jarmusch’s ‘Golden Rules’ of movie making, posted on the comments section of another review: “Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul…always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from—it’s where you take them to.”

Meanwhile, Ben Chasny’s music, unlike any of the other artists on the collection, had a particularly bleak, singular vision, one he continues to pursue to this day. Where Banhart’s songs had a cloyingly cutesy element to them, Chasny’s world-view is remorselessly melancholic. The truth of his America is that of the desert, the wilderness; his protagonist the lone traveller pitting his wits against nature. Six Organs of Admittance´s music reflects this fundamental melancholy – their albums sway between sweeping drones and delicate acoustics, with Chasny’s own vocals occasionally hovering ambiguously in the background.

If Mountain Man were to pack any more nature into the half-hour of music on their rather beautiful debut album, they’d need a cannery. Buffalo, herons, moths, dogs and honeybees are just a fraction of the dramatis personae. The setting is, in part, Vermont, where the three members of the band – all female, contrary to the name – met at college. Appalachian folk informs the sparse instrumentation (usually a lone, slow-plucked acoustic guitar), the complex harmonies and the lyrics, which also invoke black hills and Mississippi swells. The sound is austere but there are riches here, yielded over time.
