    Grails is an American instrumental experimental rock band from Portland, Oregon.

    Biography

    Initially going by the name "Laurel Canyon", guitarist Alex Hall, drummer Emil Amos (also of 'Holy Sons') and second guitarist Paul Spitz garnered positive reactions following their first show, played on a whim. Portland musicians Timothy Horner (violin) and Bill Slater (piano/bass) later joined the group to record their first EP.

    The band then released two self-financed EPs in 2000 and 2001. Paul Spitz left the US to travel in Turkey and Zak Riles joined as guitarist, often playing more of an acoustic role. In 2002 Hall sent a promotion CD to Neurot Recordings who were convinced of the band's potential.

    In 2003, just before the release of their first full-length album, the band changed its name to Grails. They adopted a louder, more aggressive style, often switching instruments with each member writing songs that saw them branching out to increasingly disparate styles.

    By the time the Black Tar Prophecies series was released Timothy Horner left and the band carried on with only 4 players. The group often picks up an extra musician for tours, allowing Amos to switch between guitar and drums and expanding the live instrumentation. Recently, Randall Dunn and Dave Abramson have joined the group live.

    Grails (framework)

    Grails is an open source web application framework that uses the Groovy programming language (which is in turn based on the Java platform). It is intended to be a high-productivity framework by following the "coding by convention" paradigm, providing a stand-alone development environment and hiding much of the configuration detail from the developer.

    Grails was previously known as 'Groovy on Rails'; in March 2006 that name was dropped in response to a request by David Heinemeier Hansson, founder of the Ruby on Rails framework. Work began in July 2005, with the 0.1 release on March 29, 2006 and the 1.0 release announced on February 18, 2008.

    G2One - The Groovy Grails Company - was acquired by SpringSource in November, 2008, and it was later acquired by VMware.

    On April 9, 2015, OCI (Object Computing, Inc.) announced that Graeme Rocher, Grails Co-Founder and Project Lead, and Jeff Brown, Principal Software Engineer and Senior member of Grails Core Team, have joined OCI to lead its Grails product team. OCI is now the official sponsor and has taken over funding for the Grails project. The Grails core team retains full autonomy as to how the project will be developed and advanced. Moving forward, OCI is committed to increasing the exposure of Grails, and working to integrate Grails technology with other open source infrastructure technologies that OCI supports.

    This morning you've got time
    For a hot, home cooked breakfast
    Delicious and piping hot
    In only 3 microwave minutes
    Are you kidding?
    Yo, pretty packages of frosted delights
    Look, it comes with a toy, he, he, I like that
    I wanna number 4, number 6 and throw in a plastic doughnut
    Just enjoy the gritty crunch, it tastes just like chicken
    Wrappers of many bite sizes
    Man, are you freaking blind? That's a rock
    All mixed in the pot for momma's homemade
    From scratch, well, not quite
    Toasted over flames, they be tasting quite right
    All hail king Neptune and his water breathers
    No snail thing to quick for his water feeders
    Don't waste time with your net, our net worth is set, ready, go
    Many know others but
    We be the colors of the mad and the wicked
    We be bad, we be brickit with the 24 hour sign
    Shower my habits while you dine like rabbits
    With the crunchy, crunchy carrots, that's chicken
    Gotta have it superfast
    A whole lot of breakfast you got time for
    Superfast, superfast, I come in last
    But just in time for breakfast
    Keep it through, keep it through, forever blue
    Tonight's the night for [incomprehensible]
    Aluminum, I crush your fun, aluminum
    The sea is radioactive
    The sea is radioactive
    All hail king Neptune and his water breathers
    No snail thing to quick for his water feeders
    Don't waste time with your net, our net worth is set, ready, go
    Many know others but
    We be the colors of the mad and the wicked
    We be bad, we be brickit with the 24 hour sign
    Shower my habits while you dine like rabbits
    With the crunchy, crunchy carrots, that's chicken
    Gotta have it superfast
    Superfast, superfast, I come in last
    But just in time for breakfast
    Keep it through, keep it through, forever blue
    Tonight's the night for [incomprehensible]
    Aluminum, I crush your fun, aluminum
    The sea is radioactive
    The sea is radioactive
    Superfast jellyfish, superfast jellyfish
    Superfast jellyfish, superfast jellyfish
    Superfast jellyfish, superfast jellyfish
    Superfast jellyfish, superfast jellyfish
    Superfast jellyfish, superfast jellyfish
    Superfast jellyfish, superfast jellyfish
    Superfast jellyfish, superfast jellyfish
    Superfast jellyfish, superfast jellyfish
