Review: Sunn O))) - Monoliths & Dimensions
18 Nov 2009, 6:23 de perpetualcacoph
To those of you that have heard of Sunn O))) before, you will probably know exactly what to expect out of their latest release, Monoliths & Dimensions. This is another album filled to the brim with dark, brooding atmosphere that is meant to be played at deafening volumes. With this album, Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson collaborated with eighteen other musicians in order to make their most ambitious album to date. Guests include Dylan Carlson (Earth), Attila Csihar (Mayhem, Burial Chamber Trio), Oren Ambarchi, Julian Priester (Sun Ra, John Coltrane), an upright bass quartet, two choirs, and even some horns make an appearance.
The album opens with Aghartha (a reference to jazz legend Miles Davis), a seventeen minute track which begins the same way most Sunn O))) songs do: a low, droning guitar and bass duo. Most of this track is centered around Attila Csihar’s spoken vocals that go throughout the song. The song continually builds towards a climax by adding in low piano and screeching strings. The effect is both beautiful and terrifying. Aghartha could easily be the heaviest work Sunn O))) has ever done. The amount of bass in the recording has made me dizzy a few times while listening with headphones. The combination of the droning guitars, the haunting vocals, and the ambient effects strewn throughout the song make for a masterpiece of experimental drone.
Big Church [megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért] begins with the sound of an almost angelic choir. The contrast between this and the end of the previous song is sure to grab the listener’s attention. This song epitomizes the core concept of the entire album. This is Sunn O))) showing the musicality that is present in all of their other songs by adding additional instruments which showcase those elements. The juxtaposition of the beautiful choirs against the discordant guitar work is simply amazing. There are no words to faithfully describe the awesomeness of this track. A quick side note: The long word in the title of this song is a Hungarian compound word that was used during the inquisition as a sentencing for heretics. It roughly translates to “you’re desacralized because of your own actions, that you brought upon yourself, to the point that it’s impossible to be sacred again”.
We then move on to Hunting and Gathering (Cydonia). This is another song where Csihar shines. Right at the start he is growling over a very heavy, very Earth-esque riff. Further in, we hear the horns really being featured for the first time. The sound is massive and intense. The song begins to take on an almost tribal feeling as more auxiliary percussion is added and the horns take a back seat to Csihar again. After a climax, synthesizers are introduced with occasional horn fanfares interrupting. The synths give this track a surreal feeling to the whole song. This is probably the weakest track on the album, but it is by no means a bad one.
Finally, we arrive at the track Alice (a reference to Alice Coltrane). The guitar work here has the twangy/dirty tone that Dylan Carlson has been fond of lately, and the first portion of the song has Carlson playing a slow riff over a ringing bass. Slowly, horn swells appear in order to accent the changes in the riff and a trombone solo begins over the top of everything. This song sounds simple and consonant compared to the rest of the album, and even takes on the sound of a modern jazz piece towards the end with extensive cymbal work and a harp providing harmony behind the trombone. It’s truly beautiful and it creates a pleasing end to an amazing album.
Overall, Monoliths & Dimensions is a contender for Sunn O)))’s best album to date. The progress shown between their debut album, The Grimmrobe Demos, and what they have just released ten years later is astounding. They’re addition of elements from jazz and classical music makes this a more pleasant listening experience than the blackened sound of Black One, and it will probably be much more accessible than their previous releases. That said, if you didn’t like this band before you will probably not enjoy this album, but for fans of experimental music this is an amazing album that is well worth the money.

30 Questions About My Top 30
26 Oct 2009, 6:18 de MisterJunior
I'm a sucker for a good (or bad) survey, so here's another...
1. How did you get into 29?
The Beatles: Hard to say. I remember my mom playing some Beatles stuff when I was younger but I didn't really listen to them very much again until I was probably 18 or 19.
2. What was the first song you ever heard by 22?
The Band: I'm sure it was either "The Weight" or "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down."
3. How many albums by 13 do you own?
Dead Kennedys: All of them except the live archival stuff they've put out recently.
4. What is your favorite song by 15?
Dead Can Dance: I'll say "Black Sun" because I guess technically "How Fortunate the Man with None" is a cover of sorts.
5. What is your favorite song by 5?
John Coltrane: I like "Alabama" a lot. "Equinox" is great too. I'll say "Alabama," though.
6. Is there a song by 6 that makes you happy?
Johann Sebastian Bach: Lots, but I'll be predictable and say the "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" movement of Cantata 147.
7. What is your favorite song by 10?
Neil Young: "Cowgirl in the Sand."
8. What is a good memory you have involving 30?
The Velvet Underground: I can't really think of anything specific.
9. Is there a song by 19 that makes you happy?
Madvillain: The whole Madvillainy album makes me happy. I'd be even happier if they ever put out the proper follow-up to it.
10. How many times have you seen 25 live?
Steely Dan: Never! I would love to see them live, though.
12. What is your favorite album by 11?
The Rolling Stones: The four from Beggars Banquet to Exile on Main St. are all equally awesome, I think... but in the past couple years my favorite has been The Rolling Stones, Now!.
13. What is your favorite song by 1?
Thelonious Monk: I'll say "Bemsha Swing."
14. Have you ever seen 14 live?
Misfits: No. I'm not old enough to have seen them when they were together, and I don't consider the current band to be the same Misfits.
15. What is a good memory involving 27?
The Jesus Lizard: Check back with me in November, when I hope to have seen them live.
16. What is your favorite song by 16?
The Fall: That's like asking a parent to name their favorite child. If I had a gun to my head I would say "Garden."
17. What is your favorite album by 18?
Morphine: Probably Cure for Pain, but The Night has really grown on me lately.
18. What is your favorite song by 21?
Pixies: "Motorway to Roswell."
19. What is the first song you ever heard by 26?
Carl Orff: "O Fortuna" from Carmina Burana.
20. What is your favorite album by 2?
Ludwig van Beethoven: He pre-dates the idea of "albums," so I'll skip this one.
21. What is you favorite song by 3?
Tom Waits: "All the World is Green."
22. What is you favorite song by 8?
Cows: Again, this is very difficult. I'll say "Cabin Man," although I've likely perjured myself since I think I said "The Man" in another survey.
23. How many times have you seen 17 live?
Minutemen: None.
24. What is the worst song by 12?
Bill Evans: I haven't heard anywhere close to everything he ever recorded, but it's tough for me to think of a bad song of his that I have heard.
25. What was the first song you ever heard by 28?
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds: "Red Right Hand," which pops up randomly in Dumb & Dumber.
26. What is you favorite album by 7?
Ramones: The debut. I'd put it in my top 3 albums of all time.
27. What is your favorite song by 24?
The Clash: "Straight to Hell."
28. Is there a song by 9 that makes you happy?
Lou Reed: "Walk on the Wild Side" makes me kind of happy. If I could include "Sweet Jane" that would be my choice.
29. What is your favorite album by 4?
NoMeansNo: 0+2=1.
30. How many albums do you own by 20?
Fugazi: All of them except the "Furniture" single. -

a love supreme
6 Oct 2009, 8:26 de jroots
músicas tem intenção. assim como todas as atitudes que tomamos no decorrer de nossas vidas. o mais interessante, porém, é que a audição que fazemos de determinada música não necessariamente condiz com aquilo que o músico quer passar. isso torna a gama de possibilidades de interpretações infinitas. descobrir o motivo pela qual uma música foi feita não elimina esse caráter individual de sentido que a música toma no seu imaginário, só ajuda a compreender o lado do autor. o lado individual continua intocável e sempre em construção.
quando falamos de letra, a intenção do compositor pode ajudar a compreender melhor a obra, evitando assim que a música ser entendida totalmente do avesso. se tratando de letra, tudo fica muito mais sensível;
por exemplo, a música Guilty of Being White, do Minor Threat, gerou uma polêmica, porque o público a acusava de ser uma música racista. ian mackaye, integrante da banda, negou todas essas acusações dizendo que essa letra diz sobre sua vida escolar. apesar de ficar evidente, a partir daí, de que o entendimento individual da música esteja limitado, eu acredito que ele não esteja. você continuará achando o que quiser da música, porém o compositor estará com a mente tranqüila. o que ele está tentando mostrar é o porque que essa música foi feita, e que, a partir daí, você faça sua audição.
sem letra é outra história. essa intencionalidade é mais sutil. o cd A Love Supreme, do John Coltrane, é um album feito para deus. quando eu escutei pela primeira vez, e pelas últimas vezes, eu não tinha nem idéia disso.Resolution para mim é uma música angustiante, algo relacionado ao título, uma resolução de algum tema, do mais variado possível. Acknowledgement soa como uma introdução espiritual ao caos que vem a seguir. sensacional. por achar um album muito foda, procurei sobre ele e descobri que no verso do lp tem um poema escrito por john coltrane para deus. eu consigo entender perfeitamente agora a intenção de john coltrane, mas isso só me serve para saber mais sobre o músico. a minha audiçáo de A Love Supreme não tem nada associado a deus, muito pelo contrário. essa característica do jazz me agrada muito. com o jazz, o propósito sobre o qual uma música foi feita é menos relevante, o espaço para a audição individual é muito maior.
A Love Supreme

always will.
It is true–blessed be His name–thank you God.
God breathes through us so completely…
so gently we hardly feel it…yet,
it is our everything.
Thank you God.
ELATION–ELEGANCE–EXALTATION–
All from God.
Thank you God. Amen.
