Om

[Pistol]

OM is a duo from San Francisco, California, United States, formed in 2003 by the rhythm section of the disbanded stoner metal band Sleep. The band’s first three albums feature Al Cisneros on vocals and bass and Chris Hakius on drums.

The band’s music is similar in structure to Tibetan and Byzantine chant and is rich in rhythm and melody. Their music and lyrics lift off at the beginning and slowly mutate giving a feeling of evolution inside each song. The vocals have a monotone quality, producing, on some tracks, a noticeable hypnotic effect of the sort that tends to be appealing to the devotees of the many various genres of druggishly-bent, “space” music - but which not all music calling itself stoner rock necessarily is able to cause.

Thy will be done.

I have a copy of "Advaitic Songs", which I have not listened to for a very long time, but I do remember enjoying it quite much.

Perhaps I should look into some of this bands other releases?!
