ZAK RILES - self titled - CD
(grails)
imprec213 - CD - $12.99 
Zak Riles is a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist in the Important band Grails. His creative contributions to the group are immeasurable and can be heard clearly on this self titled debut solo outing. In fact some of the pieces on this solo record have been reinterpreted into Grails favorites.
Like his band Grails, Zak Riles solo work is an elaborate mansion built of inspiration but with so much strength and originality that it stands firmly on its own. On these rocky shores come crashing waves of Sandy Bull, Mogolar,
Deuter, Popol Vuh and the Ventures while Persian breeze drifts by wafting the melodies of Hossein Alizadeh. Essential listening for followers of Important Records who favor the likes of Grails & James Blackshaw.

The Black Tar Prophecies is a massive
evoltionary step in the established Grails sound and
it is shrouded in change and pain. This is their first full
length album since leaving Neurosis' Neurot label.
Important is proud to release The Black Tar Prophecies in it's complete form including twofinal tracks not available
on the limited edition vinyl only releases. (more) |

Opening with a nod to Syd Barret's Pink Floyd (Piper at the Gates of Dawn) the record begins with morse code and drops into one of the heaviest slow-burn grooves in the Grails canon. Sounding something like Hawkwind and Ravi Shankar scoring Bladerunner......(more) |

John Fahey and Ayal Senior layed down the tracks for Three Day Band in Fahey's Woodburn Hotel room at some point in 1999. These tracks show an undocumented improvisational side of Fahey. It's certainly not early period Fahey but not TOTE era either. At night after the recording sessions commenced Ayal would record Fahey reading selected excerpts from his writing. Fifteen tracks of Fahey reading are included here. ......(more) |

Highly recommended solo recordings from Feathers/Witch member Asa Irons accompanied by his childhood friend Swaan Miller. Asa lives in a home he built from
stones in the rural woods of New Hampshire and this
record was constructed with the same sort of honest, real
& quiet sincerity. Again, essential. (more) |
