Brilliant work! The band is definitely taking it one step further. Can't wait to experience the full album.

around here i thought i'm listening to fucking Apocalyptica. Yeah, I dig the whole "sophistication" and "development" and maybe guys aren't interested in playing straight pentatonic drone anymore, but jeez, this is too much for me. Fucking flutes is the bane of Heavy Psych revival already (think Blood Ceremony) and here we have a full-blown string orchestra. I don't truly believe no one feels like me since release of God is Good, really

OM have announced the follow up to 2009's God is Good, a five song suite entitled Advaitic Songs, will be issued via Drag City on July 24th, 2012. Where God is Good was the first step in a more ornate and sophisticated direction for Om, Advaitic Songs achieves a level of composition that would've been impossible to foresee.

Advaitic Songs maintains the singularity of purpose that informs the core sound of OM, yet every element reaches further than before. Whatever drone-doom genre that had been hoisted on the duo in years past has been decimated by the sheer imagination, expansive quality, and meticulously detailed arrangements of this new album. For a band that has continually followed its own course, and stood alone in its sound and approach, Advaitic Songs for certain, is the band's most focused, progressive document.
