Haikus for Hakius

sleeeeeeep1.jpg

A statement from Om:

“Om is continuing forward with a new drummer and working on a new recording. Please check the band’s website and MySpace page for updates. A live vinyl-only LP, Om–Live at Jerusalem, will be forthcoming. This is Chris Hakius’ final release with the group.

Suffice it to say, we at Decibel can think of no better way to honor Chris Hakius’ time in Om than with haikus.

Doom standards too low
People really like this shit?
Sleep also boring

-Albert Mudrian, editor-in-chief

dunn… dun-dun dun, dunn…
dunn, dun-dun da na na na
dunn… dun-dun dun, dunn…

-Chauncey Kosciuszko, contributing writer

I give all my OM
stuff to my friend in Portland
Wonder if they’re good?

-Andrew Bonazelli, managing editor

    Hey dudes…

    A) Smoke more weed.
    B) Sleep rules.
    C) We’re back and I thought I’d drop you a line since you are supporters. 7-Inch Slam is happening.

    pshh, decibel magazine, what do they know.
    all they see is corporate dollar signs.
    i wouldn’t be surprised if they start
    hyping up the new metallica or linkin park.

    granted om isn’t everybody’s taste,
    and maybe thats a good thing,
    but trash talking is really in poor taste.
    no matter how ‘indie’ a magazine is.

    The doomball that Om’s throwing
