Songs: Ohia
Protection Spells
Reissue of "Protection Spells" by Songs: Ohia, a rare and cherished collection from the Jason Molina archives. This release, available for the first time on vinyl and returning after more than a decade, compiles nine entirely improvised tracks recorded during various tours. Molina described the album as a raw snapshot of his songwriting process, created without rehearsals, second takes, or additions. Featuring bandmates, friends, and even strangers, these songs capture the spontaneity of real-time collaboration. Avoiding extended noise experiments, the pieces instead explore fleeting, unrepeatable moments of inspiration, marked by unstructured lyrics and organic flow.
