The perennial influences of mid-20th century Western film scores, obscure library music, and psychedelic krautrock are indelibly imprinted, but Chalice Hymnal exudes an eerie patience in unfurling the many layers of its subtle details. Produced by the band over the past five years, Chalice Hymnal bears some of the European psych and experimental hip-hop production techniques of founding members Alex Hall and Emil Amos' other group, Lilacs & Champagne. Amos' meditative metal band, Om, and longtime singer-songwriter project, Holy Sons, also naturally find their way into the Chalice cauldron. Rounding out their line-up, cofounder Zak Riles (also of experimental kraut-psych trio, Watter) layers synths and programming into an electronic-prog hybrid that pushes Grails further into the deep end, displaying a profound resonance, both musically and emotionally. No one else sounds like Grails, and on Chalice Hymnal they sound more like themselves than ever before. VINYL FORMATS INCLUDE MP3 DOWNLOAD COUPON INSIDE PACKAGE TRACK LISTING1. Chalice Hymnal2.

ephemeral Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Ordered that colored bundle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoa Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Can't wait for this, also 20% discount if you use the code: TRL20 (I think it's one time use per customer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Don't really need the 7" or guitar picks, but I can't say no to that variant. I know opinions were split on their last album but I still quite enjoy it, and look forward to expanding my Grails catalog in February. Hopefully the variant resembles the latest Mono TRL colorway.

throwgncpr Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I loved their last album. Wish there was an option for black + the 7" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly the same. I want the 7", but the guitar picks aren't needed. I wish there was no guitar pick bundle. Stoked for new Grails none the less!

The Vool Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Did I miss something? Do they have an additional Euro-based shop or something? I haven't ordered the past 3 years from TRL because of high shipping costs, but now it's down to $10... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoa Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 I think they have a UK-based store as shipping to here was only a mere $3.58. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ephemeral Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Yet it costs $23 to send it up to Canada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the UK shipping, the price for the double LP is so high it still rounds out at 45$ shipped. Would've been difficult to justify without the code. Then again, it's Grails. $16.50 for shipping is not that bad. Usually it's more like around 25$ for a double. Could do without the 7" and guitar pick though. Very stoked about the announcement, really dug the expanded Black Tar Prophecies. Edited December 7, 2016 by JoshuaNilk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freedumb Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Deep Politics had a preview video before it was released. At the beginning of the video, they played a 1970's instrumental which features a horn maestro dude. Anyone know what I'm talking about?... the artist's name and song?

CaptainHerbalLife Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) Fuuuuuuuu. Postponed purchasing this and then remembered yesterday that the TRL20 code stops being valid in the New Year. Oh well. Still wish they didn't include the unnecessary tid-bits cranking the price up.

throwgncpr Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I just went with the black version. I would love to grab the 7", but don't care for the colored vinyl and all the extra junk like guitar picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoa Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Those guitar picks are vital and I'm looking forward to accidentally losing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably throw them in the sleeve of my record unless they come in a case or something. Real inessential for me. They're neat, but I still wish they were an add on. I did use the TRL20 in a pretty big order (can't remember if it was w/ this or something else), so I guess I still come out ahead overall. Pretty stoked for this to come out. I sometimes forget how much I like Grails. Would love to see that first Black Tar Phophecies collection get a reissue someday. Looks like the damn thing keeps getting more expensive on the second hand market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
