This album is probably my favorite, even among other Sunn and Boris works. The atmosphere here is just incredible. You can pretty much feel how you're walking through the foggy woods in the darkness, wondering, where its going to take you.
@impcirca1988 IT IS JUST SUNN!!!!! Here is some info for you who are unenlightened. Sunn 0))) is a brand of guitar/bass amplifiers. They took their name from that, which also, doesn't pronounce the '0'. See, it's a SUN beside the SUNN. It's just a logo!
@BhwaBohH wow thanks. The other two answers clearly visible on your screen just didn't do it for me, I needed a third answer. Glad you were here I was beginning to get desparate!
at 5:42 the guitar riff gets so awesome. Then at 6:32 its like... you gotta headbang. Never thought I'd headbang to a Drone song, but guess thats what happens when Boris + Sunn O comes together.
well a lot of it, or drone in general, is arguably ambient anyway - or 'dark ambient'...neither Sunn nor ambient are particularly exciting, so both work as background music
Right on. I think the minute a band NEEDS its listeners high is when they fail to create something that stands on its own as a work of art. It would be to the detriment of the music.
how so? fuck you if you're trying to say that you don't like it sober or if your trying to say that psychedelic drugs won't make music a more intense listening experience.
@amplifierworship661 Unique under tone you expressed/imagination is more smeared/than explored/aka why drugs for the most part are consumed/unless have lots of money/drugs are for expert mental explorers/spiritual region excavators *R~
i love the feel of drone, however i do find myself thinking how hard could it be to recreate this sound? i know it isnt about how its done as opposed to why, but i always end up putting my faith in the composers that they really do mean something behind this dissonant scramble which makes it so dark. anyone thought drone bands may be bullshitting their ultra dark psyche?
i dont get it. not bad but not my cup of green tea with a hint of virgins blood for flavor. . . eerie as fuck and would be THE SHIT in a haunted house. i have a feeling thats the idea, eerie. anyway enjoy your droneing, im going to listen to something a bit faster.
@Nizzemanden Like maybe his being trapped represents him not being able to stop his circle of deaths...if thats the case..this song feels even more diabolic lol
Drone/no/weight/gravity shifting inclines/acceleration through vibration & binary sequences/drone if a person & not an individual *R~

Good music brings to mind forest imagery, because the forest is primal, and really good music reacts with our old animal selves
