Sunn O))), Boris, Jesse Sykes - The Sinking Belle,London 07

[dubhdavidblack]

...and funny that O'Malley's band Burning Witch did there 1st demos at the same studio in Seattle where Jesse did her first 2 records (in her band called Hominy).

[AtGiza]

How did the guys from sunn and jesse sykes ever meet?

I mean i love both artists very much, and this collaboration worked out brilliant but they are very different from one and other and i wouldn't have ever guessed they would hook up with each other.

And by the way, we need more of this kind of music.

[amyclavarnway]

@AtGiza Bill Herzog Jesse's bassist is good friends with Steve and Gregg who are also from Seattle and often come up to visit. hence they all met.

[thoreauean]

jesse sykes is quite amazing herself, but add sunn o))) and boris and its a holy trifecta. still love the reckless burning stuff she did years back

[knownfilms]

probably the best gig i've been to, the atmosphere, the music and crowd were awesome

[knownfilms]

Funny i was at this and was probably stood right next to you, on 15 magic mushrooms. No i'm not the twat on the mobile phone.

[golothbervideo]

asui, sunn O))) come to indonesia!

[richardruin]

I think this is the right music to "make love" in a new appartment with your showered girlfriend. I can feel the foam of my new beauty product on her hair. Very brave step into bad taste, I like it very much.

[Raiyne123]

Wow, what an amazing atmosphere that must have been. So lovely.

[TheBrownNote2007]

Anybody who hasn't seen Boris live should go out of their way to do so. Best show I've ever seen: Thrones, Boris, Sunn O))) on HALLOWEEN. Seriously, AMAZING>

[ramonesaudibert]

this song is so fucking gorgeous! *.*

[SP1R1TCRUSH3R]

that must have given shivers

[chopstickpizza]

Brilliant song. I never knew they played this live together.

[9threalm]

Well they played one show in japan and one or two in london in . 2007. This show was so awesome.

Just wish these fucking people in the video would stop talking and just enjoy the music.

[TRIARII117]

damn wish i could have seen this

[rbjax2001]

Wow beautiful, haunting. I met Jesse a few times over 20 years ago. She went to high school with my girlfriend at the time. Good to see how far she has come, she was always very nice...and uh, well stunning and mysterious. Good stuff.

[DeStijlBorn]

I was there

at this concert

It was like the grand canyon

you can't imagine the scale of it

until you are falling

In

[Blunsbob]

Oh man, what I wouldn;t have given to see this song live...

[AtGiza]

you and me both, buddy

[wojtek0000]

duuude! look at all the weed smoke.

[karkus512]

I love this song, gutted I couldn't have seen it

[VariedInterest]

That's why they use robes and fog, to not pander to cretins like you.

[karkus512]

YEAH

[Sicky89]

This would be so much better if all these dill weeds weren't talking during the set.

[karkus512]

I know it's fucking annoying

[bigstereo]

"So what are you doing this Friday???"

"Me and Steve are headin down to the bar"

"WHAT?"

"I SAID WE'RE GOING DOWN TO THE BAR"

"OH, I CAN'T HEAR YOU, THIS MUSIC'S TOO LOUD.... OH WAIT I HAVE A PHONE CALL. HELLO, SORRY HONEY, I'M AT A CONCERT (that i actually spent money on and am ruining for the people who genuinely appreciate music)... LET ME TALK A BIT LOUDER.

[000MidnightSun]

@bigstereo people who talk at shows need to be shot in the head

[bigstereo]

@000MidnightSun Or at least in the vocal chords.

[strychnine133]

In the end, when everyone came out in the robes...that was just amazing.

[parapedal1]

Gutted that I had to leave this show before this song!

[stabyourcat]

Beautiful song, amazing performance.

[AntonOemar]

u just a kid many thing have to learn, it call drone it mean to be like this ok try to understand that kid

[PentagramSchematic]

One of their more accessible songs but still good.

[zachiswayposi1]

That's gotta be a record for most fog machines at a show.

[spacemetalizer]

Actually, the Sisters of Mercy were equally fogged out in the early 90's.

[langrolle]

äh - I mean GREAT!

[langrolle]

gerat!

[doomreaperambient]

best song ever!!!

[bgdoomly]

Great song..Sunn O and Boris are truly amazing.

[adcoolguy0]

sinking belle= best song ever.

seriously, i want this played at my funeral.

[RobEveryman]

take me here

[1point1Immermann]

Beautiful.

[consensation]

speechless.

[pmd44]

beauty.

[DeStijlBorn]

Mike Patton? for the love of christ? read a book or sacrifice a goat for heavens sakes. this was a great music moment. thank God we were all there.

[Iconoclaust]

This is such a beautiful song. Wish I could see it live. :/

[PRCNT]

so glad i got to see this! best gig ive ever been to!

[AtGiza]

Probably one of my favorite songs ever.

What a colaboration!.

I know it's Jesse Sykes, but it could have easily been sung by Mike Patton.

[punxtr18]

Perhaps, but Jesse's voice is so haunting here... Patton's voice isn't haunting. This song could have been sung by... Dawn McCarthy more than Patton, in my opinion.

[mistergav]

Was this the only song the colaberation played. I saw the set with Attila in the twigwig and had to leave to get train.

Missed Earth too and most of the Boris set as trvelling in and now seemed to have missed this (and more)

[9threalm]

This was the first song Sunn & Boris played together so you must have missed almost the whole show

[legfly]

I hate having to leave early to get the last train... wish it was like it used to be at about half 1 rathert than 10 to midnight... Missed what I payed my money for.

[h86obsid]

Probably one of the best gigs I've been to.

Met Anderson and O'Malley before the gig, and Milky who was playing in Earth in Steve's absence. The three of them were all really sound blokes, proper down to earth (pun unintended).

Sunn O))) were fucking amazing, and Csihar's "Ghost Of A Tree Monster" costume was minted.

[9threalm]

Damn people in the background that couldn't shut the hell up... stupid people

[9threalm]

Damn !!! NICE. I was there. Probably the best concert i have been to

[9threalm]

Correction.... The BEST.

[saifa03]

Great vid. I recorded this from a different angle, I really like the sound levels on your footage.

[palmereldritch]

Yes, that's pretty much how I remember it! Thanks for putting it up here. They really do like the old dry ice, don't they?
