Sabbath Assembly:" Restored to One "(Ajna, 2010) It was


What a strange time that represents the sixties in the Western world. Raised by a generation of post-war period of humanity carries with it the characteristics of transition periods. This is probably only a hundred years we will notice how the Western world has been shaped by social reform, human and religious have occurred at this at this time.

In this era of modernity associated with several predicted the fall of religion and the victory of scientific thought. As a result, many faithful have left the Christian churches but it was better to invest in other religions or new religious movements. This has led many researchers to argue that modernity does not mean the end of Belief, simply a restructuring of the proponents of this so-called modernity. Furthermore, using a model reduction / non-reduction no longer applies if one wants to break the impasse that modernity imposes on Belief.

This has happened things in the sixties, the opening to the West Eastern philosophies came with a hot iron mark a generation of researchers in search of answers existential. Hippie communes have proven fertile ground could locate where the new beliefs, drugs included or not. Timothy Leary, Ram Dass, Chogyam Trungpa , Pandit Pran Nath, Alan Watts, Krishnamurti, Aldous Huxley, Osho Rajneesh , Bahjan Yogi, Sathya Sai Baba , Sri Aurobindo , Maharishi Mahesh Yogi ... Here are some of the best known names associated with that time and we can probably add in many more. But now teachers or teachers who claimed, or almost all descended from a line or a spiritual tradition (except Timothy Leary). The idea is that there has been a multitude of others who have also made history in their own way and some for bad reasons ( Charles Manson, for example).

New technologies and the ease with which information flows have led to the resurrection (!) Of certain groups not left very deep marks. Those of interest here are those who have explored spirituality in music. One of the best known and enjoys a good campaign of revaluation, is the group of Father Yod or Yahowa , Died in 1972, known as The Source Family. Disciple of Yogi Bahjan , James Baker has gradually separated from Hindu teachings of Kundalini yoga to teach a kind of mystical syncretism, incorporating both Masonic and Rosicrucian ideas. The most striking feature of the Source Family , is the group Ya Ho Wa 13 an improvised psychedelic rock band that recorded several albums during the existence of the spiritual group. With Father Yod at the head of the group, it said "channeler" inspiration of the moment and the teachings of Grand Master in these improvised words, where it is not uncommon to hear him sing language. Previously regarded as a curiosity of psychedelic music, the majority of recordings are available again and remain very relevant. The documentary film "Re-Visiting FATHER and The SOURCE FAMILY " is a valuable document to find this particular group.




Another recent rediscovery, he is T Community Trees, a group of hippies Christians whose albums were reissued in 2007. The sleek, 4 cd entitled "The Christ Tree "is worth to be discovered by this superb ticket blog ears buzzing. This group is obviously less about him because he is contemplative Christians singing hymns to love Jesus and passages from the Bible. Let's say they have not marked the history is that they have not known the escapades that other groups were known. We are talking here of a more group of musicians traveling across the United States and Canada, helping to spread the word of the Gospels ... a little less "sex, drugs and rock'n roll".


This year is the turn of compositions of a group called The Process Church of The Final Judgement to be reborn from the ashes of oblivion. Group slightly controversial in the sixties, they recognized a principle quaternary divinity in the people of God, Satan, Lucifer and Jesus, the latter being the messenger of the other three entities. Naturally, this was more than enough for them to make the label affixed satanic. However, it does not appear that this group was openly satanic, nor demanded written founders of religions satanic. This triple personification of God was just a fad (or enlightenment) of the sect's founder, himself a former member of the Church of Scientology. Some of their ideas were taken up by Charles Manson, but the group's Process Church (or Processean) have initiated legal action against those who pretended to more ideological links between the two groups. Steps they have earned no evidence of direct contact with Manson. This group

Sabbath Assembly deserves credit for having dust texts and hymns of Process Church. That's what differentiates Sabbath Assembly of the other groups mentioned above. It is not original recordings made by members of this church. It is rather a tribute this religious group, by revisiting the devotional hymns written by the members. Sabbath Assembly is the association of various musicians from the freak-folk scene U.S., comprising among others David Nuss of No-Neck Blues Band and Jex Thoth, originally Wooden Wand and the Vanishing Voice . Jex Thoth is the joint that Wooden Wand (James Jackson Toth). Two groups incredible, mixing folk and collective improvisation. I remember attending the first concert of Wooden Wand at Casa Del Popolo it about 3 years ago, I was an avowed fan of his band and his solo project and a question worried me, because many references to religion and spirituality, it was their spiritual allegiance? Were they part of a religious group? The answer was unequivocal: we do not belong to any group, if we do this music because we felt that it was missing from the musical landscape ...




So aesthetic consideration by a group of American youngsters sang God, the mystical and spiritual quest. I was a little disappointed. I am not a devotee of "pretend" and some videos on Youtube show Sabbath Assembly "to act as if" they were in the Process Church ... But they are not. I even doubt their knowledge of what is involved body and soul in a spiritual, as they have been able to recognize that we can pretend ... although many do ...






By cons, they managed to create an excellent album of psychedelic rock, mystic-religious, with a flavor and Shade resolutely "seventies". It is to their honor. But given the quality of the musicians behind this project, we could not expect anything mediocre. At first I thought it was a project more Black Metal (especially since the label Ajna is known for this kind of music), it was a nice surprise to discover their rock still light, very melodic worn by the beautiful voice, just enough Solemn, Jex Toth.

Ajna also reissued vinyl soundtrack of the film "Lucifer Rising" by Kenneth Anger . The soundtrack was composed by Bobby Beausoleil , an associate of Charles Manson sentenced to prison life for the murder of Gary Hinman. He composed the soundtrack while incarcerated and was given the right to assemble a band of prisoners with whom the record. Impressive piece of music for an equally impressive film. / By the way, the disc Charles Manson out on ESP in 1974 was reissued on CD.
