We recently proclaimed Grails's 2011 record Deep Politics as one of our favourite records of the year. I was therefore really excited to learn that Alex John Hall and Emil Amos from the band have been working diligently on a side project called Lilacs & Champagne, with an album apparently ready for distribution on Mexican Summer as early as next month. So; possible contender for album of the year 2012? Possibly getting ahead of myself.
Needless to say the one track they have previewed on Soundcloud sounds mightily impressive. It retains the dark, mysterious tones of Grails but is certainly something new. It's psychedelic western meets trip-hop. I dig!
