Free Music Notes for Doomsdayer's Holiday
Free Music Review: Wow.
Hit: 5 Stars
Not sure what this other reviewer, R.W. Wade, is talking about...he probably should have laid off the pipe before reviewing...but this is my favorite Grails album yet.
I've been a fan for a while and have all their albums (they also put on one of the best live shows I've ever seen), but Doomsdayer's Holiday is on a whole different level. Reincarnation Blues and Acid Rain are easily two of Grails' best. If you're unsure, download those two and listen - the whole album is in the same vein. The album seems to pick up where Take Refuge in Clean Living left off, and the result is immaculate. ALthough their prior releases were unreal and completely unique, Grails have really grown into their sound. All the familiar Middle Eastern influences are still present, if not even more pronounced, and the light-to-dark contrasts add to the experience. The playing is tighter and the sound even better than before. The guitar work is more advanced and identifiable, and the drum work is absolutely fierce. Somehow this band keeps getting better. Buy this album NOW.
Doomsdayer's Holiday Poster
Their darkest, heaviest record yet, taking equal pride in smoky psychedelics and mountain-ascending riffs. Grail's avant-metal leanings are evident as always, but "Doomsdayer's Holiday" finds their already-broad palette continually expanding with 70's European film noir and cosmic free jazz explorations.Alternative Rock Music CDs
