  • OM is a three-piece experimental doom metal band hailing from San Francisco, California. Formed in 2003 by the rhythm section of Sleep, the group features Al Cisneros, Emil Amos, and Tyler Trotter. Together, they draw from a host of other influences-including psychedelic rock, Middle Eastern folk, dub, reggae, and post-rock-and incorporate musical structures similar to Tibetan, Byzantine, and Ethiopian chanting. Their very name derives from the Hindu concept of Om, referring to the natural vibration of the universe.
    This project is supported by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Program in Public Understanding of Science and Technology, bridging the two cultures of science and the arts.

      na dude if you would've seen this live you would know, Emils hands were bleeding he was adjusting tape in between songs, on his fingers. He blew me away I've never seen a drummer play so hard and heavy handed actually. It punctuated the slow nature of this music in a way that I never really could've expected.

      Credit where it's due, loads of artists never make ONE perfect album. If he never writes another thing, I'm happy with "Adviatic". Following that might be tough. Bolt Thrower just stopped after "Those Once Loyal".
      From their Wiki page: "Bolt Thrower announced that, as they were satisfied with the Those Once Loyal album, they would be indefinitely postponing the recording of another LP. The band stated that their goal was always to stop after releasing "the perfect Bolt Thrower album".
      That said, I wish they'd tried again, and I hope Al will as well.
