Doomsdayer's Commercial from The Fact Facer on Vimeo.

One of the most frequented bands here on undomondo is Portland rockers Grails. Somehow they manage to more than one release each year and we feel like you wanna hear all about them, because they deserve it.

Their new one Doomsdayer's Holiday has an all-out sinister aura, which sounds as if its coming off some medieval alchemy den in the Arabian Peninsula. Although there are mellow and atmospheric pieces like the "The Natural Man" or "Acid Rain" some pieces like the title track or "Predestination Blues" where Sun City Girls' Alan Bishop shows up for the vocals, sound like the aural accompaniment to Rabelais' Gargantua.

The 4 piece mix drony & post-rocky elements with sludgy riffs creating atmospheric conditions that might turn the lead in your house into gold or summon a beast from the netherworld if played at the right volume and for the right duration. Out on Temporary Residence, and thanks to 5 Roses Press for the promo. Check our tumblr for more Grails videos.
