Holy Sons (aka Emil Amos of Om and Grails fame) mess around in the same sandbox as collage masters El Guincho and Atlas Sound, but instead of bending and sampling scratchy tapes for tropicalia raving (like The Guincho) or bedroom toking (like Mr. Cox) Holy Sons make meditational anthems for the darkness of your basement. Banjos, sitars, Roland 909s, flutes, acoustic guitars, and Amos’ sedate whine all swirl around into one gaseous cloud, expunging the bad vibes from your dome and lulling you out of consciousness. If my Comparative Religions teacher in high school had played this when he tried to teach us meditation, I totally wouldn’t have failed that class. “Things You Do While Waiting For The Apocalypse” and “I’m Healed” are from Amos’ soon-to-be-re-released Decline Of The West, which hits shelves on September 23 through Partisan. Whet your brain with the songs below and then go cop the album when you’ve finally awoken.

Sounds like: Atlas Sound, Flying Lotus, The Album Leaf
