Emil Amos is a multi-instrumentalist currently based out of New York. Prior to moving there in the 2010s he had been based in North Carolina and then Portland, Oregon. Along with his lo-fi project known as Holy Sons, Amos is best known as one of the core members of the experimental band Grails, along with his fill-driven drumming in the heavy middle eastern trio known as Om, a band he would join in the Spring of 2008.

Though actively creating lo-fi recordings under Holy Sons throughout the 90s, his first release under that moniker would not come until early 2000, around the same time he would be in Laurel Canyon and later Grails, the latter project gaining prominence and touring more frequently.[1] Amos is also known for constantly exploring an experimenting with his own styles as a means of constant reinvention.[2]

Amos is also known for hosting a podcast on his personal musical stories, life in small towns and musical influences in Drifter's Sympathy, which has been active since 2016 and has hosted over forty episodes. In a career exploring a wide range of musical sounds, Amos has contributed fifteen studio albums to date under the Holy Sons moniker, along with an album under his own name, seven with Grails and much more, all the while performing all over the world.

Biography[]

Holy Sons[]

Emil Amos was born in 1976 in Florida and moved to North Carolina in the early 80s, with his early career would take place in Chapel Hill North Carolina.[3] He would cite a performance featuring Sebadoh and Fugazi at the Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill circa 1991 to be a major influence on starting his musical career, stating the following of the experience: "When I saw Sebadoh open for Fugazi in ’91 at the old Cat’s Cradle in Chapel Hill it was my meditation-rod moment, like when the guru hits you hard with a stick and confusion dissipates as you slowly realize your place in the universe. While proselytizing over drinks at a party I might proclaim that I witnessed the greatest band in the world pass the torch to a whole new breed of chaos, aggression and inner-loyalty. But the imaginary torch-passing I saw was probably just a projection of the quasi-religious transition from hardcore to lo-fi occurring inside my over-active teenage mind. Ironically, after that intense communion, I ended up spending the rest of the ’90s completely outside of the music world, recording daily in a basement as a self-styled form of experimental therapy. After a blinding light had been shined down into the caverns of underground music post-Nirvana, I’d felt like the party was over and retreated for about 10 years to do what I did alone… a ritual that friends often remarked ‘wasn’t even music at all’. I took their sentiment as a huge compliment but also confirmation that I didn’t belong anywhere and ultimately had no consumable or listenable worth."[4]

After leaving a hardcore punk band, he would found Holy Sons in 1992. Beginning at the age of sixteen he had used drugs every day and would not let up for years and described the mission of his music as "facing your personal reality"..[5][6] Born of the lo-fi home recording movement of the 80s and early 90s, he would record and had written over a thousand songs, often only sharing them with friends to further the theme of isolationism.[7]

Following moving to Portland, Oregon in the late 1990s, Holy Sons would release his first album in early 2000 known as The Lost Decade, collecting numerous recordings from North Carolina between 1994 and 1999.[8] In the years to follow, several recordings would be released consistently in various albums be it archival recordings or collecting a few years of recordings to compose a record.

By the 2000s Holy Sons would begin touring with the likes of Dolorean and Scout Niblett, both of whom Amos had collaborated with in some capacity. By the 2010s, Amos would re-locate to Brooklyn, New York[9] and further refine his sound into experimental folk. Notably, for the 2015 album Fall of Man released via Thrill Jockey, Holy Sons would tour Europe and North America in support, sharing the stage with the likes of Watter and Earth.[10]

Holy Sons' latest record would be Raw and Disfigured released in 2020 via Thrill Jockey.

Grails[]

  • for more details, feel free to view the Riffipedia page on Grails.

Grails began in 1999 as a bedroom recording project of guitarist Alex Hall and Amos, who were roommates at the time. A small collective of talented local musicians -- violinist Timothy Horner, a Jackie-O Motherfucker alum; classically trained pianist/bassist William Slater; and second guitarist Zak Riles, also of Harbor -- was assembled under the moniker Laurel Canyon (before the film of the same name was released) to play a couple of one-off shows on a whim, which garnered a positive reception.[11][12]

Laurel Canyon would record and self-release two EPs in 2000 and 2001 on Pamlico Sounds, played just a couple of shows and soon had Michael Gira (Swans) asking them to open for his band. On a whim, Hall sent an unsolicited CD to Neurot Recordings and shortly thereafter was quite surprised to hear from Neurosis guitarist/vocalist and label co-owner Steve Von Till offering to sign the band. The label predicated upon releasing music primarily by artists within its tight-knit family of like-minded iconoclasts (not just any band sending a demo) was so moved by the music, Von Till invited the band to join the roster.[13]

Recording would begin on a debut album though by the time the album would be finished, Laurel Canyon would opt to change their name to Grails.They adopted a louder, more aggressive style, often switching instruments with each member writing songs that saw them branching out to increasingly disparate styles.[14] The band's debut album The Burden of Hope would see release via Neurot Recordings on 7 October 2003,[15] with a release party at PSWhat? Gallery in Portland on 9 November with Steve Von Till as direct support.[16] The Burden of Hope would garner positive reception, both at the time of release[17][18] as well as retroactively.[19][20]

Following a string of West Coast shows in 2004,[21] work had begun on a follow-up, recording at Type Foundry in Portland through 2003 and 2004. Redlight would see release on 5 October 2004,[22] supported by the band's first tour of Europe.[23] Redlight would garner further acclaim from several publications.[24][25][26][27] In early 2005 Grails would tour Europe for the first time.

Grails would carry on as a quartet, recording and releasing the Black Tar Prophecies series which is described as "... revealing their fondness for the ‘60s and ‘70s experimental artists that saw music as a process of discovery." The first volume of the Black Tar Prophecies would be released in 2006 via Robotic Empire, as part of a split with Red Sparowes.[28] The second volume would see release that same year via Aurora Borealis.[29] In 2006 they released a compilation called "Black Tar Prophecies, Vols. 1, 2 &3" on Important Records on 11 August.[30] The compilation is made up by two 12" the band released in 2006 as well as two previously unreleased songs. The first 12" was in collaboration with Red Sparowes. On this compilation the band moved one step further into psychedelic territory by loosening up their song structures and adding a hazy LSD atmosphere throughout the album.[31]

Following a tour of Europe in 2006, on 12 October 2006 it would be announced that Grails had signed with Temporary Residence Limited, with their third album in progress.[32] Drawing from Krautrock and Acid Folk as well as other notable influences like Erkin Koray, Burning Off Impurities would see release on 24 September 2007 to positive reception.[33][34][35] Prior to the album's release the band had toured with Mono and World's End Girlfriend while after the album's release the band would perform with the likes of Circle, Earth, Om and Jack Rose.[36]

Returning to Europe in 2008 and after briefly touring with Nadja surrounding an appearance at Terrastock in Louisville, Kentucky,[37] Grails would announce two new studio albums. The first of the two albums would be Take Refuge in Clean Living, released via Important Records on 13 May 2008 and featuring a cover of "11th Hour" by The Ventures. Dommsdayer's Holiday would see release less than five months later on 7 October via Temporary Residence. Both albums would attain positive reception.[38][39][40][41]

A compilation DVD was released on 7 April 2009, called Acid Rain summing up their most productive period as a band, along with featuring music videos and footage from the band's earlier days.[42] That same year the band would perform a string of shows with James Blackshaw, followed by an extensive tour of Europe, which would include marquee appearances at Roadburn Festival,[43] Les Nuits Botanique and All Tomorrows Parties.[44]

In 2010 Grails would resume their Black Tar Prophecies series with Black Tar Prophecies Vol. 4, a 12" EP released 11 May 2010 via Important Records.[45] The 12" EP would be ready in time for a tour of Europe and work would begin on a sixth studio album. Details on this new album would surface in early 2011.[46] Deep Politics would see release on 8 March 2011 via Temporary Residence, attaining positive reception from several publications such as Pitchfork,[47] Rock Sound[48] and Filter Magazine among others.[49]

Grails would largely tour North America in 2011 to support Deep Politics,[50] followed by the band's first ever tour of Australia the next year.[51][52] In October 2012 the fifth volume of the Black Tar Prophecies series would be released via Kemado Records, this time as a split 12" with the Finnish experimental band Pharaoh Overlord.[53] A compilation album featuring Volumes 4 and 5, along with unreleased tracks, would see release. Black Tar Prophecies Vol. 4, 5, & 6 would see release via Temporary Residence Records on 17 September 2013.[54][55][56]

Grails would tour North America in 2013 with Lilacs & Champagne and Wrekmeister Harmonies, closing their tour with an appearance at the Lexington, Kentucky festival Boomslang.[57] Following a tour of Europe in 2014,[58] the band would go on a short hiatus.

The core trio of Amos, Hall and Riles would record with several collaborators in 2016. On 11 January 2017 Grails would announce their first album in six years and premiere two new songs in "Pelham" and "Chalice Hymnal", the latter being the title track to the band's seventh album.[59] Chalice Hymnal would see release on 17 February 2017 to positive reviews.[60][61][62] Grails would tour Europe[63] and later North America to support Chalice Hymnal[64], followed by further touring over the next two years.[65][66]

Om[]

  • For more details, feel free to view the Riffipedia page on Om.

Emil Amos would join Om in 2008 and has since become the band's longest tenured member aside from bassist/vocalist Al Cisneros. Shortly after original drummer Chris Hakius retired from music and left the band in 2008, Cisneros reconnected with Emil Amos, which ultimately led to Amos becoming the new drummer for the band.[67] The band's sound notably shifted with Amos' style being more based in complexity and fills as compared to Hakius' straightforward style. The first recording with Amos as drummer was the single, Gebel Barkal which was recorded on 8 March 2008 and released on the Sub Pop label on 15 August 2008.[68] The first known performance of this lineup is May 17 2008 at the Victoriaville Festival in Quebec. Tours of Europe, Japan and the United States would follow. Notably, one of these performances on 20 September in Monticello, NY was at the All Tomorrow's Parties festival. This set would end up being released as Live Conference (sometimes titled "Conference Live") on Important Records a year later.[69]

Al Cisneros would speak fondly of Emil joining the band in an interview with The Quietus:

“ “I think if you had tried to do it, just on your own, it would have been impossible to find someone that’s that perfect as a rhythm section partner. I feel, and have always thanked the universe, or something higher, for having been on a tour once where OM and Grails [Amos’ other band] were playing and just having the chance to become friends and Emil wanting to try it, once I gave him a call. Having seen him play drums I knew once we’d had some time playing together it would just start to blossom; I couldn’t be happier, it’s so fun to play music with Emil.

The drums and the bass, in music, to me they have to have a conversation – the drums being the ground – but there has to be a dialogue between the lyrics of the beats and the melodies and rhythms of the bass – all of those things have to go back and forth so, yeah, I couldn’t be happier.”

”
 
— Al Cisneros, The Quietus [70]

The band's fourth album was recorded in March 2009. This was around the same time Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe would join the band's live lineup, expanding it to a three-piece. Eventually, God Is Good was released on29 September 2009 via Drag City.[71] Various tours and festival appearances would follow before the following album Advaitic Songs was released on 24 July 2012.[72] This album explored Middle Eastern and experimental influences more heavily; a drastic shift from their prior sound. The band would tour that Summer but the tour would be moved to the Fall when Amos would break his arm in a skateboarding accident.[73][74]

In 2013, the band performed at the Temple of Dendur, located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York , performing a special, site-specific version of "At Giza". Temple of Dendur: Metropolitan Museum of Art 2013 was the billed name for the show. [75] In November 2013, the band played the final holiday camp edition of the world famous All Tomorrow's Parties festival in Camber Sands, England.[76] The band did two tours of the United States in 2014 with the band Watter. In December 2014, they released a third live album, titled merely Live[77]


Om would continue to play sporadic live dates and played another All Tomorrows Parties event at the Electric Ballroom, in November of 2015 along with a full European tour that year.[78] Om have intended a follow-up to Advaitic Songs in the works, with initial recording done at Empty House Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico.[79] The band embarked on a short West Coast tour in 2016, their only dates throughout the entirety of that year. Sporadic shows would follow over the next several years. On 9 October 2019, Drag City surprise released a double 10" of their live performance on Radio 1 BBC that May, their first release to feature the lineup of Cisneros, Amos and Tyler Trotter.[80]

Lilacs & Champagne[]

Lilacs & Champagne is a sampler project featuring Amos & Alex Hall. The resulting sound is tweaked hip-hop, tape-collage and the darkest creases of 70’s film-soundtracks with their lysergic and perverse style of head-music. Under this idea they created their first two albums.[81] The eponymous Lilacs & Champagne would be released via Mexican Summer on 31 January 2012 to positive reviews.[82][83] A follow-up in Danish & Blue would see released on 18 April 2013 to more mixed reviews,[84][85] surrounded by a North American Tour supporting Grails.

The next two releases by Lilacs & Champagne would be inspired by television background music. Midnight Features Vol. 1: Shower Scene would see release on 26 February 2014 via Mexican Summer. The follow-up, Midnight Features Vol. 2: Made Flesh, would see release on 16 March 2015 via Temporary Residence Limited. Notably, Midnight Features Vol. 2 would also feature Jay Clarke (Ash Black Bufflo) and Zac Reno as additional collaborators.[86] To support the Midnight Features releases, Lilacs & Champagne would tour Europe in 2014 and 2015.

Other Endeavors[]

Amos would be a recurring contributor to the Portland indie rock band Dolorean, notably contributing to two studio albums and performing guitar live with the band. Dolorean was founded in 2003 in Portland, Oregon. The band announced their break up in 2014 and played their last show at Mississippi Studios in Portland, Oregon on 31 May 2014. During the show, Al James joked that it's time to call it quits when all the band members show up to gigs in separate cars.

Amos would contribute live drums to the avant-garde folk musician known as Jandek, who released numerous recordings via his own label Corwood Industries and rarely performed live. Jandek would perform 20 April 2006 at the Hollywood Theater in Portland, Oregon with Amos on drums and Sam Coomes (Quasi) on bass. It would be later released as a double CD and DVD entitled Portland Thursday on 15 September 2009.[87] The same lineup performed at On The Boards in Seattle, Washington on 27 October 2006. This set would be released as Seattle Friday in November 2011.[88]

Amos notably contributed as a guest for the English singer-songwriter Scout Niblett, a musician he had toured with in the past.[89] On 6 November 2012, Niblett would release a 7" entitled No More Nasty Scrubs, with Amos contributing various instruments to her cover of the TLC classic "No Scrubs".[90] Amos would contribute Drums, Bass, E-Bow and Backing Vocals to several tracks on Niblett's seventh album It's Up To Emma, released 16 May 2013 via Drag City.[91]

In April 2017 details on a solo album would surface, with a track premiered in "Morbid Funeral".[92] A culmination of all the sounds comprised from the four bands he had been involved with, Emil Amos would release his first solo album in Filmmusik via Pelagic Records circa 2 June 2017, to positive reviews.[93][94][95]

In the Summer of 2016, Emil Amos would start a podcast known as Drifter's Sympathy, which shares the name with an album composed by Holy Sons in 2009. Emil Amos tells disturbing and often humiliating stories about growing up in a small town in the 90’s with co-host Jonah Bayer. Every other episode digs into the archaeology of lesser known music history to illuminate the cosmology of the outsider from another angle.[96][97][98] To date the podcast has hosted a wide arrangement of topics such as loner culture, home recordings and more with over forty episodes to date.
