}}The Phantom Family Halo is an American indie rock band from Louisville in Kentucky[6][2] notable for music described as having a "post-metal state of ungodly loudness"[8] while managing to achieve a "neat creepy B-movie horror feel."[9] The six-member band,[8] currently based in Brooklyn,[1] has performed with bands such as Black Angels, Black Mountain, Dead Meadow, USAisamonster, Hawkwind, Slint, Damo Suzuki,[3] Acid Mothers Guru Guru,[3] Stormtrippers,[4] Russian Circles,[15][5] Young Widows,[15][5] Sapat,[5] The For Carnation,[6] and Bonnie "Prince" Billy.[5] The band signed a recording contract with Knitting Factory Records in 2011.[7]

Louisville beginnings

Band members include Michael McMahan, who also plays with the Louisville band Slint, and Dominic Cipolla of Sapat.[8] They frequently collaborated with other musicians active in the Louisville music scene. In 2009, the group released a double LP entitled Monoliths & These Flowers Never Die on Karate Body Records.[9][10] In 2010, the band performed in Louisville's Cropped Out Festival.[11] A report in Twin Cities Music in Minneapolis described one of the band's live performances:

{{quote|They opened with a fade-in chant, and oscillated between hippie-with-a-knife and palms-up rock, their sound amalgamated from Clinic and/or Suicide and/or the "lovely" lo-fi four-tracked trend sweeping the nation and/or psych bands with modern gear.[12]}}

Band member Cipolla described his relation to music:

{{quote|Music is therapy for everything in my life, so I only hope to achieve a even closer relationship with it. It's like a book of potions, learning how to conjure up all kinds of different spells.|Dominic Cipolla, November 2009 in The Courier-Journal[5]}}

In 2011 the band recorded songs with Bonnie Prince Billy and included them on their album The Mindeater.[13][9][14] The release date for Mindeater was set for September 27, 2011.

Music reviews

A review in The Guardian described the band as a "new heavy psych band" which "dwells in a post-metal state of ungodly loudness," and compared their music to Tonys McPhee and Iommi.[15] Prefix Magazine described the upcoming Mindeater album as "spooked-out country" similar to the Palace Brothers using a "downcast slide guitar motif" with singing described as a "cracked vocal delivery" which was "mired in murky lo-fi production values."[9] Reviewer Nick Neyland added that one song has a "neat creepy B-movie horror feel."[16] A review by John Zeiss in Prefix Magazine described the band's sound as psychedelic rock and compared it to bands such as Scott Walker and 13th Floor Elevators.[8] Reviewer Joel Hunt described the band as "inventive."[17] A review in Brooklyn Rocks described the 2LP Monoliths & These Flowers Never Die as a "brain-melting slab of acid rock" similar to Hawkwind and Spacemen 3.[18]
