Earthless discography
The discography of American psychedelic rock band Earthless consists of three studio albums, two live albums, and various miscellaneous releases, including a number of split albums.
Earthless formed in 2001 when its members discovered each other through mutual friends and that they had common interests in music and had similar musical goals. The band released their debut album, Sonic Prayer, in 2005 on independent record label Gravity. Afterwards, Gravity also issued their first live album, Sonic Prayer Jam. Later, Earthless signed with another independent label, Tee Pee Records, and released their second studio album, Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky, in 2007 and their second live album, Live at Roadburn, in 2008. After the release of Live at Roadburn, obligations outside the band led Earthless to go on hiatus; it was not until 2013 that the band released another studio record, From the Ages.
Each album released by the group typically consists of at least two very long instrumental songs. Their first two albums, Sonic Prayer and Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky, followed this pattern (the latter with a bonus cover version of "Cherry Red", a conventionally short song with lyrics and vocals, on the CD edition), but From the Ages had four songs, three of which were over ten minutes long and all of which had no vocals. On its CD edition, Live at Roadburn has one track on each disc, but four songs altogether, as there are no track separations on either disc, representing a typical concert performance from the band.
In general, their albums tend to be well-received, with most criticisms centering on the sheer length of the songs. In particular, From the Ages was cited as one of the best albums of 2013 by a number of publications but the length of its title track (the band's longest yet) was seen as its primary weakness.

Sonic Prayer, the band's debut album, was released on April 26, 2005 by Gravity Records. It was recorded at Gravity Studios with producer Matt A. and mixed at Strange Sounds by Gars Wood.[2]
"Flower Travelin' Man" was named in homage to the Japanese psychedelic rock group Flower Travellin' Band, and "Lost in the Cold Sun" as a reference to Cold Sun, an obscure psychedelic rock group from Texas.[3] The band would have made the songs longer than their ultimate length of about twenty minutes but could not because the album was recorded on analog tape; drummer Mario Rubalcaba explained that the tape was not long enough to hold more material than that.[4]
Allmusic reviewer Thom Jurek remarked that "Droning, thudding space jams are Earthless' trip du jour, and they do it shockingly well." He praised Isaiah Mitchell's "stellar" guitar playing, Mario Rubalcaba's "beat-heavy atmospherics", and Mike Eginton's "repetitive, hypnotic" bass lines while noting the Black Sabbath influences in "Lost in the Cold Sun" and calling the album one of the best in the stoner rock genre.[1]

Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky, their second studio album, was released on May 8, 2007 by Tee Pee Records, their first album for the label. It consists of two instrumental pieces, with the first track "Godspeed" divided into five suites. The album was recorded and mixed from January 1–4, 2007, at Louder Studios in San Francisco with producer Tim Green and mastered by Dave Gardner at Magneto Mastering in Minneapolis.[10] The CD version also includes a cover version of the Groundhogs' "Cherry Red", which is one of the few songs recorded by Earthless to feature lyrics and vocals; Mitchell sings lead vocals on the track.[4]
The recording process for Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky was rather spontaneous and, because the album was recorded on analog tape (as was Sonic Prayer), the songs were limited to being approximately 20 minutes in length. Rubalcaba later reflected that the band were not able to fully express themselves on this album because of the length restrictions and how often they improvised during recording; he said that not all of what the band were inspired to do could be recorded owing to these limitations.[4]
Critical reaction to the album was mostly positive. Thom Jurek of Allmusic praised Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky, describing the band as "belong[ing] more with the Japanese bands" such as the Stars or Acid Mothers Temple but making favorable comparisons to such acts as Jimi Hendrix, Cream and Humble Pie. He concluded that the band are "a whole other thing in American power rock right now. They point a way that few will be able to follow."[5] Keith Carman, reviewing for Exclaim!, noted that only those with the patience for long songs or those in "altered states of consciousness" could tolerate the album, but described it as "quite the interesting celestial ride".[6] Giving the album a 7 out of 10, PopMatters' Mark W. Adams complimented both the band's long instrumental material and the cover of "Cherry Red", saying the latter demonstrated that they also do well with shorter material.[7] Stylus Magazine stated that "Godspeed" and "Sonic Prayer" suffered from redundancy, as reviewer Charles Robbins said that the group cease to develop the two songs beyond a certain point, but praised the cover of "Cherry Red" and gave the album a B-.[8] The album was nominated for Best Hard Rock Album at the 2007 San Diego Music Awards, at which the band themselves were nominated as Best Hard Rock Artist.[11] In 2009, the A.V. Club named it one of the best metal albums of that decade, describing the material as "something close to the Platonic ideal of heavy rock".[9]

Live at Roadburn is the band's second live album (behind Sonic Prayer Jam), and their third main album overall,[16] released on October 7, 2008 by Tee Pee Records. It consists of four instrumental pieces spread across two CDs, with no track separations on either disc. The album was recorded at the thirteenth Roadburn Festival in Tilburg, the Netherlands on April 18, 2008, and mastered by Paul Gold at Salt Mastering in Brooklyn.[17] The band were unexpectedly moved to the main stage of the festival and played for almost an hour and a half,[12] to many more people than they had expected.[3] Originally scheduled to play to 250 people in the smallest room of the event as the main act, the band were invited at the last minute to instead perform as the last act on the main stage to 2000 concertgoers,[16] as the scheduled band Isis only performed for half of their two-hour slot.[18] Earthless were not aware the performance had even been recorded,[18] but they had no objection when Tee Pee Records requested they release an album based on the performance,[19] liking the recordings themselves.[3][16] Rubalcaba described the album as "the most honest representation of [Earthless] that you're gonna get on a record",[3] and said that if listeners did not like the album they would not like the band's shows.[16]
Following the album's release, Earthless continued to tour. In February 2009, they toured with Witch in North America.[20] The band toured in Europe and the UK with Russian Circles in April 2010,[21] in the US in support of Baroness from November to early December,[22] and in Australia for the first time from December 2010 to January 2011.[23] As Earthless toured, band members became increasingly involved with side projects that took priority over Earthless and Mitchell moved to Northern California,[4] reducing their available rehearsal time and causing the act to enter a hiatus.[19] Some of the material recorded on Live at Roadburn was planned for their next studio album,[19] but due to the act's hiatus, such an album would not be released until 2013's From the Ages, six years after Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky.[4][24][25]
The song "From the Ages" would not be recorded in a studio until the group began the sessions for the album of the same name,[26] and was titled so by Rubalcaba because he felt the song was "archaic and cave man and sort of ancient". He gave it and "Blue" their names only because the songs needed names for the release of Live at Roadburn.[3]
Critical reaction was mostly positive. Jeff Treppel of Outburn magazine rated the album 9 out of 10, calling it "close to an hour and a half of intensive jammage" and "a hypnotic listening experience".[12] Michael Mannix for the North Coast Journal said Live at Roadburn demonstrated Earthless' greatest strength and driving force - Rubalcaba's drumming, which he said did not always come across on the band's studio albums. He noted that the performance of "From the Ages" was shortened by 10 minutes, and suggested this was done for the sake of the vinyl release, but said that it did not impact the album harmfully.[13] Reviewing for the Austin Chronicle, Raoul Hernandez stated "Blue" is a song "which arrives at Cream's crossroads in three minutes and continues for another 17", and described the album overall, which he rated the full 4 stars out of 4, as "One small step for the San Diego trio, one Hendrix Hail Mary ("Sonic Prayer") for mankind".[14] Rating it 7.7 out of 10, the San Diego CityBeat noted that the album would appeal to death metal fans and Deadheads alike, but it would fail to satisfy those seeking a resolution to the music.[15]

From the Ages
Untitled | |
---|---|
From the Ages, their third studio album, was released on October 8, 2013 by Tee Pee Records.[27] The album, whose material the band rehearsed three times before the sessions, was recorded in two days, with much of it recorded live the first day and additional details recorded the following day, in San Francisco with producer Phil Manley in his studio, Lucky Cat Recording,[4] and mastered by Carl Saff at Saff Mastering.[28] The follow-up to Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky, From the Ages took six years to be recorded and released because members of Earthless were increasingly involved in side projects and other bands, and Mitchell moved to Northern California, which reduced the available time to rehearse as Earthless.[4]
- Song information
The songs on the album began as "very loose, general ideas" according to Rubalcaba, who also said "Violence of the Red Sea" was the most organized, structured song on the album[26] (although he later said much the same of the title track instead).[29] Eginton wrote the bass lines for the song,[26] which had existed in the band's concert setlist for the last few years prior to recording,[4] and named it for the combination of riffs and tempos which he said "collid[ed] together like an angry sea". Eginton's bass lines were influenced by funk and "prog-psych" bands from the UK and Europe. The song's finale had existed in the band's repertoire for almost a decade and was used to close the song for the tension it created, whereas the opening of the song was considered more of a "laid back groove". After Rubalcaba and Eginton had outlined the song's bass guitar and drum parts, Mitchell was allowed to improvise lead guitar over them.[29]
"Uluru Rock" was named for the Uluru rock formation in Australia, as an homage to the country, and was written by Mitchell and Eginton as an improvisation while they waited for Rubalcaba to come onto the stage to begin the band's first show in the country[29] (although at the time the band had not been to the landmark).[19] It was specifically named Uluru as opposed to Ayers Rock as a tribute to the natives, and after being written, it became the opening song on the band's setlist for all shows going forward.[29]
"Equus October" was born out of a song that the band were considering discarding until they entered the studio and changed their minds, wanting more material on the album. They decided to use a riff from it only as an interlude that ran 30 seconds long, but they came up with more ideas about what to do with it during the mixing process, and eventually made the song much longer.[4] Rubalcaba later expanded on the song's genesis, explaining it came from a riff that had other parts that were "never fully realized", but the bass guitar line remained a constant fixture of jam sessions between himself and Eginton, and they decided to give it a chance by recording it at the album's sessions. Once Mitchell also began adding material to the song, Rubalcaba felt it began to take on a "strong & majestic yet mournful" sensation, almost as if it were about a ritualistic sacrifice. He later discovered the ritual of the October Horse and based the song's name on that of the ritual. "It took on the feeling I had about the jam & how it just completely comes crashing down so abruptly at the end," he explained.[29]
"From the Ages" dates back to the band's live album Live at Roadburn and, being very long, has been described as "a bastard to play [and relearn]". In spite of its length, the band recorded it in as few takes as possible, not wanting to do multiple takes,[26] and recorded it on a format other than analog tape (to circumvent having to reduce the song's length to fit onto the tape as they have had to do in the past). In the last five minutes of "From the Ages" the band very gently ease into the end, to avoid having to end the song abruptly.[4] Although he had said the same of "Violence of the Red Sea" with respect to the album itself in a previous interview,[26] Rubalcaba later described "From the Ages" as the most organized, planned song the band had yet recorded at all, let alone recorded for this album. He described the mixture of influences in the song as, "A supreme psycho-delic buffet served up with all the sour Kraut, all the freshest sushi Japan has to offer & what not." The song expanded constantly during rehearsals, and Rubalcaba reiterated the "pre-historic, caveman, dry & mysterious wasteland feel" inspiration for which he named it on Live at Roadburn.[29]

From the Ages charted at #25 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart for a week.[40] Critical reaction to the album was largely positive, though the album's length was commonly cited as a minor flaw. Metacritic reported a score of 80 based on four reviews.[30] "Though the silence may have been deafening for their small but devoted cadre of fans, the wait was worth every moment," wrote Erik Highter for PopMatters, who described the chemistry between the band members as "near telepathic connections between the players" and the roles of Eginton and Rubalcaba as being to bring Mitchell back from freely soloing independently of the other two. He rated the album 8 out of 10, his only complaint being that listeners may consider the title track too long.[31] Conversely, Grayson Currin of Pitchfork Media said the rhythm section did not serve to restrain Mitchell at times, but to "instead follow his ecstatic lead everywhere, fellow travelers on his odyssey of enthusiasms". He echoed Highter's opinion regarding the title track's length, saying it might be "where the band's patience might test your own," and also questioned whether the material needed to be as long as it was, asking, "…is there a need for an hour of three dudes tracing and retracing a melody?"[32] The length of "From the Ages" was also criticized by Exclaim! reviewer Trystan MacDonald who cited it as the record's "only flaw" and rated the album overall 8 out of 10.[33]
eMusic contributor Dan Epstein rated the album 4.5 stars out of 5 and described the interaction between band members in much the same way as Highter and Currin did, saying that while Mitchell's guitar leads are prominent, Eginton and Rubalcaba are "locked-in" with him and each other, "never los[ing] focus or intensity for a second — not even during the rolling 30-minute title track."[34] Reviewing for NOW Magazine, John Semley said that while inferior to Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky, its high point was the opening track, "Violence of the Red Sea", and the album is "an essential record for anyone who likes the sound of guitars sounding like guitars".[35] Karen A. Mann also wrote, for the heavy metal section of About.com, that the opening track was the band's peak performance on the album, which she rated 4 out of 5.[36] Rolling Stone referred to the album as one of the 20 best metal albums of 2013,[37] while Magnet named it the third best of the year's top ten hard rock releases.[38] Likewise, the Austin Chronicle ranked it ninth in the top ten metal releases of 2013.[39]
In support of From the Ages, Earthless toured the western coast of the United States in October 2013,[41] and with the Shrine in Australia from December 2013 to January 2014.[42]

Miscellaneous
Between the release of Sonic Prayer and that of Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky, the band released a 10" vinyl live album titled Sonic Prayer Jam on Gravity Records.[47] The band released a limited-edition 7" vinyl single on TYM Records that was initially available only via pre-order and in the color blue, then sold at shows during their December 2012 Australian tour in the color red, and later reissued in the United States in the color purple.[48]
In addition to Sonic Prayer Jam and Live at Roadburn, the band have released a number of other live recordings. Mitchell has noted that despite the lack of other atmospheric elements such as sights and smells, one still hears the uniqueness of a particular Earthless concert in a recording as no two performances are alike. He further explained, especially with regard to the band's hiatus, "Part of it is because we got some good recordings and we havenʼt been able to go into the studio, so itʼs nice to keep putting stuff out and let people know that weʼre still around. And also when weʼre on and the communication is good between the three guys in the band, itʼs a good performance so itʼd be a waste not to put that out so that people could hear it."[49]
