Vinyl LP pressing. Co-produced by Paul Oldham (Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Royal Trux), The Name of the Ghost is Home, the 2022 album by Drunken Prayer, transcends the bounds of Americana. This is music that could have emerged from a highly blissed-out biker bar or at a swampy ashram. For the last year Morgan Geer has been working from his home studio building on tracks initially recorded in Albuquerque, NM at Empty House Studios, home of doom metal bands like OM and Sleep. The end result evokes an ominous feedback-and-driftwood aesthetic. There's something Whitmanesque about all of this: the particle subsumed into the cosmic swirl, the beautiful crass open road; like a film score for a road movie of the mind.
