Southern Lord Signs OM

Posted by Bob on January 21, 2007

Southern Lord Records has announced the signing of OM. Here is the official word:
It is with extreme honor that Southern Lord is officially able to announce the signing of San Francisco's OM. OM was formed in 2003 by Al Cisneros (bass/vocals) and Chris Hakius (drums), both founding members of legendary doom pioneers Sleep. The band has released two previous albums with Holy Mountain Records: Variations on a Theme (2004), and Conference of the Birds (2006). OM will fit perfectly among other bands on the Southern Lord roster (Sunn 0))), Earth, Boris) who are continually pushing boundaries, and forging ahead in new directions. OM are helping reinvent and reinforce modern heavy music. Their first album for Southern Lord will be recorded this summer at Electrical Audio studios with Steve Albini at the controls. Album title and release date forthcoming. Please stay tuned for more info!
