Paul's picks Protection Spells Songs: Ohia SKU: SC037LP Barcode: 0656605003719 26.00 £26.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Secretly Canadian Released Date: 25th October 2024 Buying Format: 1LP Forthcoming Pre Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Secretly Canadian are proud to reissue Songs: Ohia’s ‘Protection Spells’, a collection of some of the most precious time capsules in the greater Molina vaults. ‘Protection Spells’ has a spotty release history, with long periods out of print and limited formats. It returns to print now for the first time in over a decade (possibly two) and for the first time on vinyl. Of ‘Protection Spells’, Molina had this to say: “‘Protection Spells’ is a collection of songs recorded over a period of several Songs: Ohia tours. Presented here are nine entirely improvised pieces. The approach to these songs involved no rehearsals, no second takes, no additions and no going back. What you have here are songs that just happened in real time. “The many musicians on these recordings were friends, bandmates, and, at times, total strangers. I have long hoped to offer the listener a chance to have some of these great accidents on record. It is a direct look at my songwriting process, only a little more risky, and nobody has any idea what direction we are going until we all start working on it together. I think that the years of improvised music I played in the past helped to strengthen the risk-taking with these songs. “Here, the goal was to still have basic songs without falling into long freak-out noise experiments, saving that kind of exploration for live settings. You will notice the appearances and disappearances of ideas that could never be recreated, not that they are all brilliant, but they are certainly not forced. The seemingly arbitrary moments of strange repetition of the lyrics, the clear lack of a preconceived system of established song parts, all are the marks of improvised songwriting. “Since even the singing had no idea what the floorplan of the song was to be, there were some unanticipated troubles and some shy steps taken, but I have preserved these mappings of the dangerous musical byroads that Songs: Ohia has always depended on. I hope you enjoy this.” – Jason Molina, July 10, 2000 Artist Songs: Ohia Genre Americana / Country Label Secretly Canadian Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Trouble Will Find You The Moon Undoes It All Darkness That Strong Keep Only One Of Us Free The World At The End Of The World Fire On The Shore Mighty Like Love, Mighty Like Sorrow The One Red Star Whenever I Have Done A Thing In Flames Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Songs: Ohia and more from Americana / Country View Product Quick View Songs: Ohia Songs: Ohia – National Album Day 2023 Americana / Country | Secretly Canadian | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th October 2023 £27.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Songs: Ohia Songs: Ohia – National Album Day 2023 £27.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Secretly Canadian SKU: SC004LP-C2 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 20th October 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Songs: Ohia Travels in Constants Americana / Country | Temporary Residence | 1LP Released 13th February 2018 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Songs: Ohia Travels in Constants £22.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Temporary Residence SKU: TRR246LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 13th February 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Songs: Ohia Didnt It Rain: Deluxe Edition Rock And Pop | Secretly Canadian | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 25th November 2014 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Songs: Ohia Didnt It Rain: Deluxe Edition £22.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Secretly Canadian SKU: SC299LP Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 25th November 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Songs: Ohia Hecla & Griper (15th Anniversary Edition) Americana / Country | Secretly Canadian | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 29th April 2013 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Songs: Ohia Hecla & Griper (15th Anniversary Edition) £16.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Secretly Canadian SKU: SC008LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 29th April 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Giant Sand Purge & Slouch Americana / Country | Fire Fidelity | 2LP Released 30th May 2011 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Giant Sand Purge & Slouch £27.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Fire Fidelity SKU: FF174 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 30th May 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Phosphorescent Live At The Music Hall Americana / Country | Dead Oceans | 3LP, Includes Download Code Released 12th February 2015 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Phosphorescent Live At The Music Hall £22.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Dead Oceans SKU: DOC093LP Formats: 3LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 12th February 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Two Gallants The Bloom And The Blight Americana / Country | Fargo | 1LP Released 14th September 2012 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Two Gallants The Bloom And The Blight £16.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Fargo SKU: FA02 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 14th September 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Charley Crockett Welcome To Hard Times Americana / Country | Son Of Davy | 1LP Released 31st July 2020 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Charley Crockett Welcome To Hard Times £15.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Son Of Davy SKU: SOD007 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 31st July 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Willie Nelson Shotgun Willie Americana / Country | Rhino | Miscellaneous Released 15th December 2009 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Willie Nelson Shotgun Willie £22.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Rhino SKU: RI7262 Formats: Miscellaneous Released Date: 15th December 2009 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sandy Harless Songs Americana / Country | Numero Group | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 9th August 2024 £23.00 -
