Lilacs And Champagne – “Sweet/Sour”

Mar 5, 11:34am Stereogum
Lilacs & Champagne - Sour / Sweet [Official Single]
Lilacs And Champagne may have started as an interesting side project of Grails members Alex Hall and Emil Amos, but they've quickly proved how well they stand on their own. Picking up on the sounds from last year's self-titled debut, their new single "Sweet/Sour" is a heady cocktail of psychedelia and soul in the style of Madlib or J Dilla. It's the sort of track that begs to be heard with headphones in order to enjoy all of the sonic tricks Hall and Amos bust out in its brief runtime. Check out the skull-filled music video below, and [...]

Maserati w/ Majeure and Trotter Riles @ The Zanzabar – 11/16

Nov 16, 2012, 10:26am Backseat Sandbar
Maserati w/ Majeure and Trotter Riles @ The Zanzabar – 11/16 Athens, Georgia-based Maserati are habitual line-steppers, blending psychedelia, post-rock, electronic, ambient, you-name-it. Their latest album, "Maserati VII", was produced by the talented and hard-working Kevin Ratterman right here in Louisville. The album is their first record with drummer Mike Albanese (Cinemechanica,  Shannon Wright ) and prominently features Steve Moore of Zombi, contributing both synth lines and mixing the record. Zombi is one of the threads that connects this show; their drummer, A. E. Paterra, formed the dynamic space-rock band, Majeure, accompanying Maserati on this bill. Majeure are touring for their second album, out last month. [...]

Grails – “Wake Up Drill II” (Stereogum Premiere)

Oct 10, 2012, 11:21am Stereogum
Portland, OR instrumental band Grails share a drummer with Om (Emil Amos, also of Holy Sons and Lilacs & Champagne), but there's a shared sensibility, too: Both bands deal in complex yet meditative explorations of sounds spanning psychedelia, ambient, doom, Eastern music, prog, and beyond. Grails' forthcoming release, the split-LP Black Tar Prophecies Volume 5 , is the latest installment of their triumphant Black Tar series - "a repository for the band's more idiosyncratic forms of composition" - however, it also builds on the panoramic beauty of the band's last LP, 20112s Deep Politics [...]

C’Mon Get Heavy: New Jams From Indian Handcrafts and Grails

Sep 14, 2012, 1:15pm I Rock Cleveland
There is virtue in keeping things short and to the point. Has anyone ever heard the story of prog rock? For the Canadian duo, Indian Handcrafts, however, two minutes is not nearly enough. On "Terminal Horse," the first single from their forthcoming release on Sargent House (10/30) , they tease with such a forceful mix of heavy blues and thrash metal, that by the time you get a good headbang going, it's already over. Sure, you can press play again, but really, the answer is more. As in, more thrash, more riffs, more jams (that are more than two [...]

Lilacs & Champagne

Aug 9, 2012, 8:19am Musik Mig Blidt
Lilacs & Champagne Lilacs & Champagne er et sideprojekt for de to medlemmer Alex Hall og Emil Amos fra Portland, USA, der normalt lægger deres kræfter i intrumental bandet Grails. Det gør det ikke mindre interessant. Er blevet ret vild med nummeret  Everywhere,  Everyone .  Som resten af numrene på den selvbetitlede debutplade er udtrykket ret psykedelisk og filmisk og præget af et virvar af  samples, der er stykket sammen på mesterlig vis.  Stemningen emmer af underspillet uhygge på et psykologiske plan.   Lilacs & Champagne | Homepage [...]

Sunday Mix Tape Number 263

Jun 11, 2012, 2:45am Swan Fungus
Another busy weekend. After Friday night's movie debacle, I worked all day Saturday and then celebrated the birthday (or name day, if you're a Game of Thrones fan!) of a friend. The revelry occurred at a bar in Koreatown that makes for a pretty great restaurant, but maybe not the optimal hang-out bar. Food was [...]

Auf Sample-Schnitzeljagd mit Lilacs & Champagne Alex Hall und Emil Amos, eine Hälfte der Instrumental-Kombo Grails, haben ein neues Projekt.

Track of the Day: Lilacs & Champagne - "Sensations"

Feb 1, 2012, 4:18pm We Listen For You
Track of the Day: Lilacs & Champagne - "Sensations" Wandering in from a psyched-out trip through a Spaghetti Western, Madlib wasn't sure what to do. He limped around. Sample some local delicacies: a walnut in the shape of a raven and just as big, a fish which sang a lullaby, chilies cooked over a roasting heart. If it's all just in your mind, then why are you stressing, the fish sang. Madlib ate on. Lilacs & Champagne = 1/2 of Grails + Emil Amos of Om/Holy Sons and Alex Hall.

Peer Picks 2011 – Ben Hinz (The Ronald Raygun)

Jan 23, 2012, 11:31am PeerValidated
Peer Picks 2011 – Ben Hinz (The Ronald Raygun) Ben Hinz is lead-singer and guitarist for Doom/Triphop outfit The Ronald Raygun . He is also the owner of Dwarfcraft Devices , an acclaimed effects pedal manufacturing business centered in Eau Claire,WI (seriously, tons of people use his stuff, check out the videos and testimonials to get an idea.) While his music might suggest he'd just as soon bludgeon you to death with a lead pipe as look you, he was kind enough to send us to jot down a few ruminations on what he considered to be the best of 2011 . . .

Two members of the Portland band Grails, Alex Hall and Emil Amos, have a new project going: The heavy, churning production duo Lilacs & Champagne. Last month, we posted their dark, eerie debut single " Everywhere, Everyone ." And now we've got the equally dark and eerie video for the track, which mostly consists of chopped-up and staticy clips from old horror movies. Read More...

Lilacs & Champagne – “Everywhere, Everyone”

Dec 8, 2011, 5:51pm Stereogum
Lilacs & Champagne – “Everywhere, Everyone” Alex Hall and Emil Amos, the production team behind the Portland instrumental rock band Grails , have a distinctly unrock new project called Lilacs & Champagne. The new project is a producer-music sort of thing; the two make sound-pieces that draw from underground rap and spaghetti-western soundtracks and dub and techno. "Everyone, Everywhere," a song from their forthcoming self-titled album, is a bass-heavy head-in-clouds epic, and it sounds vaguely like a screwed-and-chopped Clinic. Listen below. Read More...
