OM New LP to Drop in the Fall, Tentatively Titled Nom Nom Nom
OM began as a duo with bassist/vocalist Al Cisneros and drummer Chris Hakius — both founders of the ‘90s stoner-metal band Sleep. But after Hakius left the project last year, Emil Amos stepped in on percussion, making a pretty hefty shift in the OM lineup. The last we heard from the new partnership was on the Sub Pop 7-inch for “Gebel Barkal,” so this will be the first OM studio full-length with Amos. No title has been announced yet, but Drag City will release the album September 8. The press release promises new instrumentation and a “surprise.” According to OM’s website, it looks like they just completed recording with Shellac’s Steve Albini and will be wrapping it all up in the upcoming weeks, meaning the boys will be dragging me to a show any day now. If I don’t get beat up for that headline, that is. |

Important has a live LP from a NYC show supposedly coming out. The new drummer is really going to have to prove himself to me, being "sufficient" just won't cut it. But Al seems into it from interviews...

they should call their greatest hits album "OMG!: OM's Greatests".
... Nah. (if it were on one disc, it could only fit like 2 songs on it anyway)
