Sunn O))) & Boris - The Sinking Belle (Blue Sheep)

[futuredeath]

playing this while getting sleepy on a sleeping pill

[ESmaniak]

Play this at my funeral.

[iloveredsox7020]

this song is chill as fuck. i really like this. the chords are beatiful as well

[crimsoneternity]

This is a beautiful song.

[bastardjimmie]

I don't think i've listened to any song more in my life. this song is like a security blanket.

[DrRiffzilla]

This is definitely my most played song too. I haven't heard it in a while and I'm nostalgiaing out hard. I look forward to meeting it again in the future :) 

[theuberelite]

its been 2 years since I've listened to this song. Still so beautiful. For some reason the song "Bright Blue Dream" by Sunset reminded me of this.

[aidanari]

@theuberelite good reccomendation thanks

[dronespace]

Amazing song <3

[donibard]

who´s singing on this??

[transitsauce]

@donibard jesse sykes

[nishtabre]

And out of you

Grey birds fly.

I love Boris.

[MrPepper1616]

What, this is sunn?

[r0lly90]

@MrPepper1616 its a brand of amplifiers..:)

[Clutnuckle]

MY HEART IS BROKEN

[Araqnydd]

reminds me of a long, empty road in the middle of the desert. lovely

[JoshuaEquilibriumIX]

@windowstill that's quite dumb. Someone using swear words doesn't hurt anyone.

[impcirca1988]

@JoshuaEquilibriumIX unless you call them a dickhead while you kick em

[JoshuaEquilibriumIX]

@everyone, I don't really see why you're making such a fuss. SunnO))) is wonderful, Boris is wonderful, this song is wonderful, and Deftones are pretty good I suppose. Does it really matter? Every song on Youtube has to have a few idiots arguing about idiotic stuff. We should all just chill out, and admire this magnificent noise.

[Ceraziefish]

@hektorpike just don't forget that sunnO))) is American, mate ;P

[CRAZYGUY2500]

they scare me

[hektorpike]

@windowstill go on then you stupid cunt! i live in a world where 'cunt' can be a term of affection just as much as an insult. go figure!

[impcirca1988]

@hektorpike wow, you are a clever cunt, then. OH Hey, I see what you mean!!

[hektorpike]

@impcirca1988 haha. finally, some cunt wi a sense of humour!

[impcirca1988]

@hektorpike You northern?

[hektorpike]

@impcirca1988

[hektorpike]

@impcirca1988 scotland mate

[impcirca1988]

@hektorpike my mistake, wouldn't want to insinuate you were from south of the border :)

[grifvie]

this song is absoloutly beuatiful. I love how they can be so heavy and still have the musicianship to be able to write stuff like this.

[makeithurtful]

saddest song ive ever heard, almost makes you feel cold.

[Dogofwarno7]

s'like getting a spinal tap of god's stash, this sound that hits me in the heart and down in my very bones.

[Dimdez]

IS that Malefic with a beard? (left from far right)

[JohnGoodman909]

What a bunch of fucking freaks!

LOVE IT

[hektorpike]

you just proved to me that i was right to assume you were a yank mutherfucker...bitch! why are you emenaericans all so fuckin stooooopid? yeh, i have listened to that shitty band that you are obviously so wrapped up in that you took offence, hahaha! are you a groupy or something? go take your advice, cover it in margarine and ease it up your ass...bitch! haha, you people make me smile! do i take offence to your outburst? of course not :0) hehehe, the deftones, indeed!

[MrVesanique]

I just heard a some guy's mash-up of that song with " Anniversary of an Uninteresting Event " by the Deftones. Absolutely gorgeous. Check it out, for real, look for " The Sinking Of An Uninteresting Event ".

[hektorpike]

@MrVesanique shut up and dont mention shit like the deftones on a sunn o))) page. the fucking stupidity of some people!

[MrVesanique]

@hektorpike The fucking stupidity of some people ? You just proved it yourself, dumbass. " Shit like Deftones ", have you ever listened to the Deftones and tried to find the jist of their music ? I guess not.

Secondly, I didn't mention the Deftones so the people would listen to them. I just adviced the people here to go listen to the mash-up that the user " LimoNL " did with THIS Sunn O))) song and a Deftones song.

Thirdly, but not the least, fuck you.

[tomkilburn100]

@hektorpike Whoop whoop! Music snob!

[hektorpike]

@tomkilburn100 yeh, that's right....and proud of it....bitch!!!

[ChaosAura]

@hektorpike

Get off your fucking high horse. I'm listening to that mash-up right now, and it's damn good.

SunnO))) is amazing. I'm not a fan of Deftones, but everyone has their own taste in music. In many peoples tastes, you have a shit taste in music, so fuck off with your elitist shit, and respect the art.

[hektorpike]

@ChaosAura who the fuck do you think you're talking to? yet another hard cunt on the internet!

"SunnO))) is amazing...you have shit taste in music" yeh, that really makes sense you dumb cunt. another emenaerican no doubt...fuckin' knob!

[AtGiza]

Don't get me wrong, this song is perfect, but how or why did they ever decided to contact Jessy Sykes and get her to collaborate in this project?

This song is hauntingly good.

[diziamonddave]

i love how these cats put out a track like it took the night to believe which is evil as fuck then do this which is beautiful as fuck. god i love sunn. so fucking rad

[NoobOnTheCob]

Never really gave bands labeled "metal" (which usually translates into stupid macho and pretentious) any chance, but from what Ive heard so far, these guys are surprisingly artistic.

[VacLateralus]

BO)))ris: Great collaboration.

[AtGiza]

@VacLateralus that's clever.

[jetcitywoman92]

Catharsis. 

[FozzyOverload]

wistful and beautiful.

[s13coupedrfter]

I love it when people E-thug...shows they dont give a fuck about the video being viewed. Please go away.

[michaelkid67890]

Aww look at wata in her robe :3

[LetTheRightOneIn19]

fuck ha...

[myguitardidyermom12]

The most musical piece of music involving SunnO)))

[nomad927]

did that person really call Pink Floyd a "shitty band?"

If so, they must be a kid. I can't imagine anyone who really knows anything about genius musicianship could say that about The Floyd. I guess more ignorant things have been said about music

[grindylover]

@nomad927 taste is taste. You can't force a band into sb's mind just because you love 'em.

[MyNameIsBucket]

@nomad927 I'm 30 years old. Pink Floyd is generic blues trash, just like Led Zeppelin. Listen to some Yes or King Crimson and learn some shit about music other than what sounds good when you're high.

[solomaster12]

@MyNameIsBucket Pink Floyd is generic blues trash huh? You might as well have said "I am 30 years old. I dont know jack shit about music." Pink Floyd is anything BUT generic blues. I mean, have you even listened to Pink Floyd other than "Another Brick in the Wall Pt. II" and "Comfortably Numb"? YOU need to learn some shit about music and the atmosphere that Pink Floyd creates. Pink Floyd are masters of texture.

[MyNameIsBucket]

@solomaster12 Sure, masters of ONE texture. Turgid riffs with simplistic drums and some synth over top. Oh, and don't forget the guitar solo that never changes no matter how many times it's played live.

That shit stopped being awesome around the same time my balls dropped and I quit smoking pot - but that's probably because I also explored other kinds of music (not just bands trying to sound like Pink Floyd). Some day you'll be like me.

[platehpus]

@MyNameIsBucket A pretentious elitiest who's too Jaded to enjoy one of the most classic and influential bands in Rock & Roll? I'd like to hear your opinion on the beatles.

[MyNameIsBucket]

@platehpus I was raised on the Beatles. They are excellent songwriters. Masters of melody and composition. Not like these sleep-inducing jam bands and their meandering "songs".

[BooandDon]

Then dont listen dumbass. It takes all kinds and this music is our kind.

[steshystesh]

@MyNameIsBucket Than leave this site and listen to your excellent songwriters.

[MyNameIsBucket]

@steshystesh Ha ha, it's funny because you think you can lay down the law. I'll continue posting as long as I have something to say, and eventually you'll turn into that guy who flags people who don't share his opinions.

[0wnage55885]

@MyNameIsBucket The Beatles are just catchy, that's about it.

[bonistik]

@MyNameIsBucket then perhaps you should check out boris's cover of beatles' "i am the walrus" in collab with merzbow. it's awesome :)

[austin33309]

@MyNameIsBucket Are you sure you quit smoking weed? This is fucking ridiculous. "Some day you'll be like me." I sure hope not. I haven't seen anything this pretentious and dumb since Paris Hilton. I bet you've never stopped to think in those 30 years that music might have more to it than trying to write the most complex songs or trying to play the most notes. Calling Floyd "generic blues trash" tells me that you don't know shit about what you're saying. (The band you were looking for was AC/DC.)

[MyNameIsBucket]

@austin33309 Of course it doesn't matter how many notes. I can sit down and enjoy Satie or Rachmaninov all the same. What matters is that the notes go somewhere - and that's difficult to pull off if they're repeated every 4 bars for 7 minutes.

[austin33309]

@MyNameIsBucket the song is not meant to have some dramatic climax. Its purpose was to create an atmosphere.

[steshystesh]

@MyNameIsBucket It's funny how you can't see anything in static music, you would probably physically attack La Monte Young if you saw him on the street. I don't mind you sharing your opinion, but I prefer opinions from people who make a point which is not their PREFERENCE of music ONLY.

[MyNameIsBucket]

@steshystesh What else is there? Objective quality? Friend, you couldn't have picked a worse band to defend if that's the game you want to play.

[steshystesh]

@MyNameIsBucket I don't expect anyone here to be objective but the fact is that you listening to beatles is no argument against this music, it's just your preference and i know your not stupid but your just arrogant. drone doom is drone doom and you should even criticise it till you go on a concert of this kind coz this music is pretty physicall really.

[cyurisich]

@austin33309 and a fucken big boo to you! Calling AC/DC generic (know any other bands that sound like them?) means that you don't know what you're talking about either. Also, how the hell is Paris Hilton pretentious? I get the feeling that you don't know what that word means, which funnily enough is quite pretentious.

Anyway, this song is great. Shame it's watched by pitchfork fans.

[scandinavianserialki]

@cyurisich AC/DC's music is simple is what he is trying to say I think. It's practically all power chords. borrrrring...

[UncleCthulhu]

@MyNameIsBucket If you're gonna pretend to be some sort of all knowing god of good music you could have picked something a bit more exciting than stereotypical dad rock, what about Fripp & Eno or Van der Graaf Generator?

[MyNameIsBucket]

@UncleCthulhu Sorry, I'm not name-dropping just to impress people. That's your game.

[redcommando1]

on their own they are good but together they can rule the world.

[Valhalla0]

They need to do more post rock material like this.

[plaguex1]

This is heavy in a spiritual way

[lokust9ine]

@plaguex1 Aint it thee truth. Aint it thy truth...

[CodyRicheson]

Some Pink Floyd moments here and there...

[Hasbo88]

@CodyRicheson dont compare these two to that shitty fucking band

[redcommando1]

@Hasbo88 Pink Floyd, shitty! you need to wash that mouth out.

[PlagueOnHumanity]

Everyone in Boris and Sunn O))) are musical geniuses so everyone who is arguing just shut the fuck up and enjoy the song.

[forensa]

as a lullaby

[ALTERNATECHAOS]

I'm just waiting for, like, Neurosis, Sunn O))), Melt-Banana, Boris, Merzbow and Converge to do a collaborative album. That'll end all of this, lol.

[ALTERNATECHAOS]

Oh, and The Locust. You can't forget them. And if they could fit in ANb somehow, that'd be it for extreme metal.

[ub3r2008]

@ALTERNATECHAOS Don't forget Earth.

[nickhoffer]

I could play this on repeat for the rest of my life and still get goosebumps every time I listen.

[dougskate30]

@nickhoffer Wow you're gay nick

[ShadowTheJuggalo1]

@dougskate30 No, you're just a prick doug.

[SilverTemplar]

@dougskate30 Agreed, what a homo.

[MrMedusaLvamp]

Exquisite!....and nothing less.........

[JuddCaster]

Drone + Drone = Post Rock with soft vocals? I ain't complaining.

[deadpisser88]

I know, right?

[XxMinatoNamikazexX]

@JuddCaster It's hard to really classify Boris as just drone though.

[XShadowVoidX]

id really like to hear them do some collaberations with tool or at least maynard

[Jetlag666]

I don't think Adam Jones ever wants to hear of Boris again.

[Akhin]

@Jetlag666

why that ?

[AmberSanity]

@Jetlag666

Buzzo: "That song's about my cat, man"

Adam: "whut :| "

[muttonbuster]

@XShadowVoidX I dunno man. If I ever got to hear Adam Jones and Wata collectively try to conjur satan on their Les Pauls, the closest I'd want Maynard to be to the venue would be selling wine in the parking lot.

[deadpisser88]

Wow. Didn't expect this. I've become used to their drone. It's actually quite nice to hear them play a post-rock track (which has drone aspects to it).

[bokky81]

I could listen to this song for the rest of my life.

[Coughcough888]

@afkmusic you don't understand the concept of this music and since you can't understand it then your obviously an idiot, so how about you don't search for it on YouTube? Deal? Deal.

[actaylorr]

I don't like Sunn that much. Don't get me wrong, there music isn't bad it's just not my thing. But their colloboration with Boris has really put them in a new light for me. It's pretty gorgeous. I look forward to more stuff like this :)

[plaguex1]

@actaylorr I like Sunn O))), but I completely agree with you there music is a hard thing to enjoy, but this on the other hand is beautiful.

[melloki76]

Soooo good!

[DoubleNullVoid00]

Absolute amazing!

[DreadnoughtMetal2006]

This genre of music seems to belong with films - which scene would this be played to...?

[PaulyPlz]

Some Sunn O))) with Boris songs were in the film "Limits of Control", being shown right now in the UK I think.

[oldskool667]

@DreadnoughtMetal2006

Maybe the soundtrack for the TV series Twin Peaks.

[joelaka3pac123]

i always did think that alot of this stuf would go to some creepy game like silent hill or american mcgee's alice

[ALTERNATECHAOS]

@DreadnoughtMetal2006 The scene where the protagonist loses all hope and writes a suicide letter and then drowns themselves.

[Drumlinebaby08]

Beautiful song. Beautiful lyrics. 50000000000000/5 *

[banexbanex]

afkmusic-e, podoj mi krivak!!!

[banexbanex]

podoj mi krivak seljaku jedan neznajuci!!!

[drummertech06]

I feel sorry for you, because obviously you're a complete idiot with horrible taste. Here's an idea...continue to make your shitty "music" and leave this to the adults

[Drumlinebaby08]

This song is awesome.

[jsteeez]

wow this is so much better than drone

[SadisticNeurosurgan]

One of the greatest songs of all time.

[Deadmeatproductions]

Siiiiinkiiiiiing belle.... can't stop singing along lol. Love this song so much.

[Taspiis]

Absolutely mesmerizing and...deceiving in a good way - sunn o))) is categorized as a drone metal band. Thanks for such wonderful uploads.

[Dickalas0118]

i came

[DannyLovesMuffins]

... whoa. I was expecting extreme drone. x]

[asgardalex]

I'm gonna see them tomorrow in Munich and I'm already excited. This song is just perfect...

[urdistracting]

3 days ago.

[OnlyByFishStandards]

yes. just yes.

[Rydia20]

Gotta love these guys.

They should collaborate more often.

[bawksarawks]

if you like this song, look up the other two versions. one was a japanese exclusive, and i cant remember the other reason for the other one.

Sinking Belle (blue sheep)- this one

Sinking Belle (Black Sheep)

Sinking Belle (White Sheep)

[tajto]

this is fantastic.

[OnlyByFishStandards]

couldn't've said it any better. and yes, i use double contractions. im from the south.

[Merzbowxnoise]

That sounds like Shoegazing, but nothing Drone

[SummerLandMan]

Yeah dude. It's not the last thing that I'd expect Sunn O))) and Boris to do, but it ain't the first. You'd think there'd be a little bit more of that brain-is-a-concrete-battleship feel.

[Lightningbaron69]

Experimental bands do whatever they want....

[rockinstereo]

amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

[esldave]

Duuuude this playlist is PHAT !!! LMFAO!!!

I say that in a strange brew of gesticular satire & sarcasm ...

[MurryVillage]

I wish this song went on for another 7 minutes. Beautiful

[silverrapunzel]

i love how much unease and hatred sunn0))) and boris can cause to the weak of spirit

[theuberelite]

fuck me, I clicked to switch to the window and I hit 2/5 on the stars while switching to this window, and I don't think its letting me change the rating.

God dammit youtube, lemme change it, this song is too epic to deserve a 2/5 -.-

[theuberelite]

In all honesty though, this song was not what I expected, but also was. It wasn't because of the style, but it was because it was amazing.

[raindogzilla69]

where has this collaboration been all my life? simply majestic.

[Daakee]

I like this =]

[Koerangar]

they got great atmosphere...amazing

[Libidoic]

so beautiful

[EnslavedInrot]

... Listen to Feedbacker...

It's a lot like this. It's just... drone-y..er.

[oldskool667]

I'm not a fan of Sunn O))), but this song is quite melancholy and beautiful.

[4TT4CK]

truly amazing

[Valhalla0]

there needs to be more songs like this... with this drone atmosphere, but in a beautiful way.

[anonymous71207]

It doesn't have vocals, but the last song from the new sunn o))) ends on a happy note. It's amazing

[funkmasta666]

Oh my god, I know. Alice (as well as all of monoliths and dimensions) is so amazing. It tops the whole dark, evil, epic, sad, end-of-the-world feeling of the album off with that hauntingly positive horn melody. simply amazing

[impronen]

Try Earth's "The Bees Made Honey in the Lions Skull" or "Hibernaculum" or "HEX". They have similar feels to them. No vocals though..

[GhostOfBrendan]

turn it up, lay on the floor and close your eyes. it's hypnotic and beautiful to the point of tears.

[Daakee]

Beautifully said!

[1337p3nguin]

This song is beautiful. It makes me drift off into space whenever I listen to it.

[lunarleeisfree]

jesse sykes indeed. her band is great too!

[GODSMASHERXL]

There isn't enough Sunn ))) on YouTube. =(

[8Groll8]

...cause it's not fast food...

[Colenelly]

lol.

[denverm4x]

very beautiful

[athropos]

This is very post-rocky.

[Lortagreb]

it is post rock

[Ifyousayso666]

OMG He sounds like Buckethead when he sings. Some ppl just shouldn't sing. But Sunn O))) is awesome anyway.

[almightyjoey]

I'm assuming this is a troll, but Jesse Sykes does the vocals on this track. A female.

[SouthernWhiteWolf]

SOMA, the heart of Sunn O))) (obviously), always a step beyond...thank you, guys...thanks a lot for such beautiful art...

[xxtaxidermyxx]

also, I saw Boris a couple years ago. so heavy/loud. awesome. they had Michio Kurihara with them.

[xxtaxidermyxx]

one of my favourite pieces of Shoegaze ever. I can easily imagine Mazzy Star playing this. but it's these drone/stoner/metal dudes/dudettes

[almightyjoey]

Wow, this is quite chilled for Sunn O))).

[9delicate9]

I love this song but I can't find it anywhere...!_!

[surfininsf]

Easily the most beautiful rock song of all time. This should've been used on the soundtrack to some apocalyptic movie, or a documentary about Antarctica.

[mr0glass]

I hear they are going to be on the soundtrack of the new Jim Jarmusch movie...could be this song

[m3at1982]

holy scheisse, i will bow before Jarmusch if that's true. I've always fantasized making a movie with Sunn in the soundtrack...

[FirrionFirradril <]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaa Sunn o)))
