INTERVIEW: Jarboe on The Reissue of “Disburden Disciple” on Vinyl, and Her Many Vocal Styles


In this latest episode, Ghost Cult’s Managing Editor Tom Osman interviews the one and only Jarboe! One of her most influential and boundary-breaking albums, “Disburden Disciple” on vinyl for the first time ever for its 25th anniversary, out now via The Circle Music. Jarboe shares her excitement over the reissue, her path as a DIY artist back in the day, her songcraft, work with Swans, a strange connection with Phil Anselmo of Pantera, and much more! Hail Jarboe!
