Emil Amos, producer/drummer/songwriter of Grails, drummer of OM, and Lilac & Champagne mastermind, solo entity Holy Son's Decline of the West. Psych, folk, hip-hop, this album has it all, delivered by the master. The haunting opener "Gnostic Device" starts the album off in perfect form and continues to carry until the end of the album. Highly recommended, Enjoy!
"...I got to daydreaming about what it would sound like if the next Holy Sons record was produced by someone as inventive as Lee Scratch Perry, or MF Doom, or Carl Sagan for that matter. At the time I'd felt 'Peaceful Life' could've suggested a career of musical pacification and that bothered me. Too much in culture is warped and diluted by the desire to pander to an imaginary audience... but when we retreat to the inner temple of the self, worthwhile art is created. This tension, in itself, is a good platform for an upbeat misanthropic concept record. So for the leaner and meaner genre-hoppers>> Decline of the West. Hybridizers unite!"
