I was always a big fan, just watching and listening to this unfold it's sadly not worth the effort, which to my ears is exactly why Pike fucked off. Boring shite.

Nice one for the heads up. Had a look, it's listed on their site but marked as sold out.


There was some form of vinyl copy of Holy Mountain in there at lunchtime today anyway. Dunno if it's the version you;re after but it's definitely there.

Quote from: StoutAndAle on August 06, 2026, 11:22:11 AMWhile I'm on this subject;

Does anyone have the new (?) version "Holy Mountain" on vinyl that boasts "Full Dynamic Range"? It's on their Bandcamp for a surprisingly reasonable price inc. shipping so I am tempted to buy yet another copy of that record - and I assume that they get the cash, not Earache. 

Yes. It's excellent to my ears anyway, felt like I was hearing it to the first time again when I played it, and I actually remember checking the sleeve thinking it has to be a remaster (didn't notice the Full Dynamic Range thing when I was buying it).

Sound. I'll get onto them.

Class. Nice one.


I can't bring myself to listen to the new track.

Is the album artwork A.I. generated?

 

No it's done by a legit artist called Dan McCarthy. He's done gig posters for Melvins etc.

This is like everything insufferable about stoners generally in musical form. Fucking hell. Clearly more money in using the Sleep brand than in Om at this point, and he's probably got to pay his dealer somehow.

He gave up smoking years ago and coincidently has done nothing worthwhile since.

Really?Mad.


I've lately found myself getting into Om having had zero interest in them before. So much so that I had a look for my Sleep- Dopesmoker record to spin (having previously thought it was shite) only to find it gone. Fairly sure I gave it away or traded it years ago. Might be for the best! I may have to pick up some Om CDs though.

The debut, variations on a theme is brilliant. None of the rest are quite the same level though I do quite like god is good.
