Grails is an instrumental rock band originally from Portland, Oregon, USA. Currently, they are scattered across NYC, Berlin, Kentucky and Oregon. Their music has captivated audiences with its unique blend of genres and atmospheric soundscapes.

Inspired by the likes of *Red Sparowes*, *Do Make Say Think*, and *Russian Circles*, Grails has carved out their own niche in the instrumental rock scene. Their compositions evoke a wide range of emotions and transport listeners to otherworldly realms.

With influences ranging from post-rock to experimental metal, Grails' discography showcases their versatility as musicians. Fans of bands like *ISIS* and *Godspeed You! Black Emperor* will find solace in Grails' intricate arrangements and powerful performances.

Anches En Maat is the first new album from Grails in over a half-decade following the masterful Chalice Hymnal in 2017 and their first album recorded with all members in the studio together since Doomsdayer’s Holiday in 2008. With every Grails album released since Doomsdayer’s Holiday being a sprawling double-album endeavor, Anches En Maat was conceived as a return to the comparatively efficient single LP runtime. With that, Grails set out to craft the same sonically dense world that their longer albums showcased, while trading singular indulgences for live collaborative interplay.The core group of founding members Alex Hall and Emil Amos (Om, Holy Sons) joined Jesse Bates, Ilyas Ahmed, and AE Paterra (Zombi, Majeure) in Atlanta, GA to record Anches En Maat together a novel event for a band who had become so accustomed to recording separately and then labouring in post-production for months or even years on end. An improbable blend of melted 1980s softcore and daytime soap opera soundtracks, cosmic minimalism, aching Westerns, melancholy electronic pulses, and massive soul-disco strings, Anches En Maat is one of Grails’ most ambitious albums of their 20+ year career. Through continually refining and maturing their vision as a band, Grails have stumbled upon a reprogramming of their internal logic and come out the other side with a new defining statement.
