    note: several of these albums in their original packaging are considered rare and hard to find. We have seen some of these releases on Amazon and Ebay go for high dollar amounts. All box sets include original packaging for Days Like These (w/uncensored art & fly sheet). Some boxes include the original This Bar EP in blue letterpress (others w/silkscreen vsn).

LYRICS O come, O come, Emmanuel, And ransom captive Israel, That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appear. (Refrain) Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel. O come, Thou Wisdom from on high, and order all things far and nigh. To us the path of knowledge show, And teach us in her ways to go. O come, Thou Day-spring, come and cheer Our spirits by Thine advent here; Disperse the gloomy clouds of night, And death’s dark shadows put to flight.

about

Emmanuel (Hebrew עִמָּנוּאֵל "God with us") stems from a 15th Century processional of French Franciscan nuns. Lyrics drawn from various antiphons during the 12th century and translated from Latin in 1851.

Instruments: "The Antaries Guitar - an odd no-name French electric given to me in the mid 90's by Miles Williams (an anglican priest for playing his parish)... played through a 1965 Vibrolux (no pedals), one Kimball pump organ dated 1897, and one Yamaha organ from the 70's (on vibe setting)."
