A band arising from the cinders of once stoner metal behemoth known as "Sleep".

Dissonant with Matt Pike's "High On Fire", Om detains more of the classic Sleep vibe, picking up where the highly regarded "Dopesmoker" left off. But this time, Al and Chris decided to formulate their colossal, earth-shaking music sans-guitar. Also withdrawn are the dope references precedently in Sleep's lyrics. Om tackles religious, philosophical, and mystical lyrical themes, fairly anomalous in the stoner metal world. However, these lyrics are not sung, but chanted as if some kind of incantation.

If you're a fan of Sleep, or any doom/stoner metal for that matter, Om just may be for you.

Here to tell us about what a sorry state music is in today? :rolleyes:

Green Milk from the Planet Orange.

No it means when I hear a band who I think is great i`ll say it :rolleyes:

Are you suggesting I lower my standards to please everybody else?

Any chance of an album upload for me?

Actually, there is a really good local band(outside of detroit) called Day In Age. And everyone better watch for them, because they're going to be big someday. They are progressive/experimental rock. They draw influences from Bands like Pink Floyd and they are amazing live, recordings dont do them justice.

Yall can check out their music athttp://www.myspace.com/dayinage
