Songs of the Void

It's summer. Like the young music freak that I am, I'm staying inside all night wigging out over drone-doom metal band Sunn O))) while every other 20-something-year-old in the city is out frolicking till dawn starts to creep through the sky. Here are some nonsense phrases that floated through my skull whilst on the adventure into the void that is their newest slab of tunes, Monoliths & Dimensions (Southern Lord).

"Ringwraith lullabies"
"the soundtrack to the formation of the earth"
"nightmare-wrapped dreams"
"aurora borealis in slow motion"

"+the cosmos"
"descending into the Nothing"
"music that beards and trees like to grow to"
"what was playing on loop inside Nico's head."
"frozen brain"
"long shadows"
"medieval prom music"
"building a castle out of black bricks on Venus"
"Satan's doorbell"
"WWLBD?"

Catch them August 8th at the Independent.
