Deep Politics

by Grails

supported by

Alice M. Hard to classify, easy to listen to. Bliss in musical form. Favorite track: Deep Politics.

spiros_metsouggis This band can touch the soul in a very soothing and tender manner. Their ability to invoke so many different feelings and weave around moods is equally impressive, plus their stage presence and performance is enchanting, to say the least.
Really difficult to pick up a favourite track! Favorite track: Almost Grew My Hair.

jpolstep safari post-rock noises hell yeah Favorite track: Future Primitive.

Simon Booth Beautifully constructed and produced instrumental rock/post-rock channeling Ennio Morricone's atmospheric soundtracks. Favorite track: Deep Politics.

about

Deep Politics was conceived during the lengthiest gestation period between Grails albums, and reflects a deeper, more educated level of concentration. In their ongoing exploration of occult/fringe culture and the rich history of film music, they have cultivated a unique environment that inspires both an eternal sense of longing and an indelible sense of dread. Produced by the band, as always, the most immediately noticeable advances are the lush string arrangements (courtesy of acclaimed composer Timba Harris) and increasing use of the same kind of fetishistic cut-and-paste production techniques that made producers like RZA and MF Doom hip-hop legends. It's a seemingly unlikely twist to the Grails aesthetic, but not unusual given the size of the pot in which they've stirred just about every genre imaginable. Through tireless exploration and awe-inspiring execution, Grails have found their true calling as purveyors of a new kind of library music, to be discovered by future generations of crate diggers and curious forward-thinkers.
