The Flowers Of Hell is the 2006 instrumental self-titled debut album from the experimental rock group The Flowers of Hell. It was largely recorded by Tim Holmes of Death In Vegas at the Contino Rooms in London.Peter ‘Sonic Boom’ Kember of Spacemen 3 mentored the band through its creation, mixed and performed on the track 'Through The F Hole', contributed a liner note poem to the Japanese CD version, and guest deejayed at the record's London release concert. Band leader Greg Jarvis has stated that the goal of the album was to build classical tangents from The Velvet Underground & Nico and the Spacemen 3 / early Spiritualized sound.
The record was initially released in the UK in 2006 by Earworm Records (Spacemen 3, Bright Eyes, Apples In Stereo), followed by a release in Japan in 2007 by Starmole Records.
The album received coverage from a significant amount of UK press outlets including Q magazine, Rock Sound, Time Out, The Sun, The Evening Standard, The Times, The Mail on Sunday, and Metro, along with feature interviews in Japan's major music magazines (Loud, Rockin'On Japan), and reviews from key US sites (Pitchfork, AllMusic).
