For a band that plays at the speed of death, these dudes sure have been hitting the road pretty fast and furiously lately (at least, for them – remember, only a few shorts years ago this was a band that wouldn't be caught dead on a stage within three years of their last performance). However, in support of their brilliant new album Monoliths & Dimensions (seriously dude, buy that shit. It's got dynamics and everything!) the hooded menace themselves, SUNN O))), have announced a string of West Coast dates kicking off in Seattle, where they will headline two Southern Lord label showcase events.
The first night will be as a duo performing the the Shoshin/GrimmRobe Demos in their entirety! Which means one really really REALLY long, slow, drawn-out, LOUD note, and a whole lotta amplifier love. They will be joined by labelmates The Accüsed (this show serving as a record release show for the Accüsed album The Curse of Martha Splatterhead!), An encore Seattle performance follows the next night, this time alongside labelmates Earth, Pelican and Eagle Twin. After that, SUNN O))) will head south along the coast through California and into Utah and Colorado.
Yet another tour I'm pissed-off about missing (come back to Phily, dudes. Please? You can crash on my couch. I'll even wash your robes for you). West Coast doom bros, don't miss out!
