Thou, The Body, Sumac featured on Many Waters benefit compilation
Thrill Jockey is releasing a benefit compilation to aid victims of recent floods in Louisiana. The compilation is titled Many Waters and features unreleased tracks from Thou, The Body & Full of Hell, Mike Scheidt of Yob, Aseethe, live tracks from SUMAC and Old Man Gloom, in addition to contributions from a long list of Louisiana bands.
“I spent the better part of three weeks after the [Baton Rouge] flood driving around neighborhoods looking for homes to help out,” says Thou drummer Joshua Nee in a press release. “Every day after work and pretty much all day on the weekends was spent gutting damaged homes. You could tell by looking at a house, that if it didn’t have refuse and debris scattered around outside of it, it probably needed some help getting cleared out. We’d see a house without anything on the front lawn, and just go knock on the door and see if people needed help clearing things out. Once a house has had water in it for that long, all the wood gets swollen and rots and mold sets in, so you have to take it all out – sheet rock and all. A practice space we had been sharing with a slew of other bands was totally wrecked, and countless bands I know had their spaces and equipment destroyed.”
