SUNN O))) AND EARTH



Next week, Sunn O))) and Earth play the Brooklyn Masonic Temple. Sunn O)))'s last record, Monoliths and Dimensions, saw them stretch their drone, doom tentacles to incorporate strings, brass, and a woman's choir in order to create one of the most commanding, beautiful records of this past year. Earth's brilliant last album, The Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull, brought country twang and delicate piano to their slow, heavy wall of reverb guitars. I've been throwing this word around lately, but this concert will be EPIC.
