Description:.Despite being written over the course of a year in four different sessions with four different lineups, the songs on FLOWERS sound more cohesive than those on last year's BOO HUMAN. This experience encapsulates the spirit of Joan of Arc - a mentality that embraces contradictions and tears apart common musical structures, only to rebuild them without a blueprint. They continue to create an obscure combination of familiar, obvious ideas while sticking with the notion that "if it feels good, do it."
"Flowers" is a captivating album by Joan Of Arc, released in CD format under the renowned indie label Polyvinyl. This record showcases the band's signature blend of experimental rock, intricate lyrics, and innovative soundscapes that have defined their career since the mid-1990s. With "Flowers," listeners are treated to a collection of tracks that balance introspective songwriting with bold musical exploration, making it an essential addition for fans of avant-garde indie music. Joan Of Arc is an influential American band formed in Chicago in 1995. Known for their ever-evolving lineup and boundary-pushing approach to music, they have consistently challenged genre conventions across numerous albums. Their previous works such as "How Memory Works" and "The Gap" received critical acclaim for their originality and emotional depth. Polyvinyl Record Co., established in 1996, has become one of the most respected independent labels worldwide. Home to artists like Alvvays, American Football, and Japandroids, Polyvinyl is celebrated for its commitment to artistic freedom and supporting groundbreaking musicians across genres.
