'Joan of Arc' daphne
Through Joyful Noise Recordings, Tim Kinsella, Joan Of Arc's lead singer, released a bizarre, experimental work in 2011. The album was a compilation of four Joan Of Arc albums and featured collaborators like Rob Lowe, Zach Hill, and others. It produced a surprising variety of music.
Joan was accused of blasphemous presumption. She had identified herself with the cult of the Name of Jesus, wore men's clothing, and claimed to be a revelation from God. These claims prompted Parisians to organize their defenses. Joan herself was an advocate for the Name of Jesus and Mary cult, and she wore menswear. She believed that God gave her direct commands, rather than through her church.
The Book of Joan is a dystopian novel based on the life of Joan of Arc. She was a farm girl in 15th century France who was thrust into the forefront of the French army and given a divine mandate by the throne. Her story inspired many young girls to pursue the same dreams.
