Yeah I know, but I love that album. It's really, really good. I think I just end up not recommending it to people I know locally because most of them can't even get through Amplifier Worship, so there's no point in sending them in that direction.

Bump.

Anybody into this should really check out The Process by Sink, if you haven't already. It's good, it's very good.

I currently have Sunn o))) white 2 blasting on my stereo. I've been playing that a lot more than white 1, it's just better sounding. I have black one coming in the mail along with earth's hibernaculum.




Yea they are pretty cool, Throat Ruiner has a lot of great music on their shop.

What do you guys know about Boris' newest album (or whatever it is), Heavy Rocks? the local record shop has it and i was thinking about getting it.

Heavy rocks is worth buying. 100%

There are some droning parts here and there, but it's mostly really solid heavy metal/rock. Also quite experimental just as you would expect from Boris. The song Heavy Friends has a real EARTH feeling to it, Like something off A Bureaucratic Desire album.

Cool beans, thanks!

while it's good music to go to sleep to, it's great music to wake-up to. you haven't experienced drone doom until you've slowly come back into consciousness to the sounds of Sunn 0)))))) or Khanate. Recently I've been into Slomo-The Bog, they use more synthesizers and sequencing than the more well-known groups but keep the aesthetics and overall feel of traditional drone-doom.

Is it bad that i'm scared to actually listen to my Sunn records at full volume, as they request?

It can be a frightening experience if you're not prepared. But if you are ready for it, there's a lot of hidden textures that come out at full volume. Whenever I listen to Sunn, I do it at full volume if I can for just that reason.

Full blast is by far the best way to tackle Sunn 0))), it doesn't fully make sense any other way. It's only music ;)
