came across these guys. the stuff of theirs that ive heard is similar to more ambient/drone tracks by ae etc. but they hail from the dark metal genre.
interesting stuff though. fuck knows how you pronounce their name

doesn't sound anything like AE, in my opinion. it's quite good, though. i didn't particularly dig their live show, but whatever. people seem to eat that stuff up anyway.

They're great, but I dunno where you got the AE connection from. It's drone/doom metal.
You just pronounce their name "sunn" (named after the amplifiers Earth used).

Where did you see them live? My mate told me he saw them play in the cockpit in leeds a few months ago and enjoyed it very much.
As soon as they play anywhere local in England again, i'll be there.

suddenly everywhere i look there appears to be a different date.
but it does seem to be available from the southern lord website. which is excellent, because now i can buy it.

when i saw them they played with oren ambarchi. he also opened for them by himself.
and some guy from boris "sang" with them
and there were some other people too
the whole experience damaged my hearing slightly and i haven't had too much of an urge to listen to them since, but black one is quite fantastic.
