Featuring Genesis Breyer P-Orridge as the “Sacrifist,” Timothy Wyllie, Adam Parfrey, and The Sabbath Assembly band performing original Process Church songs
Sunday, October 4
8 pm
Read about the sold out Process Church Ritual and Salon shows in LA here, and a review of the Sabbath Assembly Band’s performance here.
Was The Process Church truly “one of the most dangerous Satanic cults in America”? Or were they an intensely creative apocalyptic shadow side to the flower-powered ’60s and New Age ’70s? Scores of black-cloaked devotees swept the streets of New York, San Francisco, London, Paris, and other cities selling magazines with titles like Sex, Fear, Love and Death, and a controversial theology proposing a reconciliation of Christ and Satan through awareness and love. Marianne Faithfull, George Clinton and Mick Jagger participated in Process publications, and Funkadelic reproduced Process material in two of their albums.
The inside story of this legendary group has at last emerged with Feral House’s LOVE SEX FEAR DEATH by Timothy Wyllie and other former members.
Tonight, to celebrate the recent release of LOVE SEX FEAR DEATH, Feral House, Process Media, and Sound@One present a simulation of an actual Process Church “Sabbath Assembly” ritual, featuring Genesis Breyer P-Orridge as the “Sacrifist.” Author Wyllie (Father Micah) will follow to discuss the cult and his time within it in a multimedia presentation. The Sabbath Assembly band, comprised of Robert A. Lowe (Lichens), Kyle Forrester (Crystal Stilts), Jex Thoth (I Hate Records), Laura Leontine, Sophie Gonthier (Anything Maria), and David Christian (of No-Neck Blues Band), will perform Process hymns and songs throughout. Join us!
