We ordered up a bunch of new cds. Always on the hunt for new sounds. One of the discs I picked was from Sunn O))) yes that's not a typo. I checked them out on YouTube and well, they are definitely doing something...
Sort of a Druid Priest/Aleister Crowley/Les Paul/Wizard from the Underworld/Schtick.
This is sound. This is theater. This is some kind of sonic ritualistic convocation. Matching hoods, a bank of amplifiers, a smoke machine and ear splitting, down-tuned guitars makes for a sonic spectacle.
Kind of funny, kind of dark. This is a band Satan might dig.
I'm sort of jealous, I never get to play that loud! And you figure the hood makes dressing for a show a no-brainer!
UPDATE: The Mind Reels: Is it all giggling and grins back in the dressing room after a show? Or is it ritual blood-lettings and grim murmurings? I mean just how do these dudes chill out?
