The Flowers Of Hell are a trans-Atlantic space rock orchestra made up of 16 or so independent musicians based in Toronto and London. Led by synaethsette composer Greg Jarvis, the group are noted for building classical tangents from the work of The Velvet Underground and Spacemen 3. Their fourth album 'Odes' will be released in mid 2012 on Optical Sounds.

Flowers of Hell is a trans-continental collective of musicians from bands like the Patti Smith Group, Guided By Voices, Bat For Lashes, Spaceman 3, Broken Social Scene, the Clientele, and British Sea Power. Led by Canadian lti-instrumentalist Greg Jarvis, they draw from the dynamics of My Bloody Valentine (for whom they opened in 2008), the darkness of the Velvet Underground, and the astral expansiveness of Spiritualized. There is no easy way to describe Come Hell or High Water. This is not sing-along music (there are barely any discernable vocals anyway), nor is it an intellectual exercise to be enjoyed only by other musicians. There is an overall feeling of lightness and geometry to the album, but each track stakes out its own emotional territory and visual landscape.

67-the flowers hell come hell high water. The album is one of the last to feature Ritchie Blackmore, as he quit after the concert on 17 November 1993 in Helsinki, Finland. He was replaced by Joe Satriani for the rest of the tour and later by Steve Morse. Blackmore's issues with the presence of a cameraman on his side of the stage at the start of the Birmingham concert prompted the guitarist to return to his dressing room until the cameraman was removed.
