About Om

Founded in the early 2000s by the rhythm section of stoner metal outfit Sleep, Om take the most expansive and repetitive elements of their former band, make good on the implications of their name, and create downright meditative music. A metal band in the sense that their music contains considerable weight and volume, Om have subverted the genre norm on albums such as PILGRIMAGE and VARIATIONS ON A THEME via an almost total lack of rock pyrotechnics or macho histrionics. Instead, they use the aesthetic tenets of metal to bring about an altered state of consciousness. Quite the stunning accomplishment for a duo raised on Sabbath and Slayer.
