  • Characterized by slow tempos, heavy distortion, and environmental effects, the music and performances of SUNN O))) saturate their environments with monolithic soundscapes and immersive atmospheres. In December 2022, guitarists Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson, who founded the experimental metal band in Seattle in 1998, returned to the live aspect in its core, original raw form. The two performed as Shoshin (初心) Duo, immersing the audience in profound valve amplification, spectral harmonics, distortion, and volume. Witness a live experience of physical sound, fog, and glacial maximalism like no other.

    Saw this in Paradiso, Amsterdam. Changed my perspective on music as a whole. Insane how you can really tell different parts calming down and picking up when hearing this afterwards. It's a complete vaccuum of space and time when you're witnessing this in person.

    Saw Shoshin Duo at the Lodge Room in LA. I saw them on their Life Metal Tour as well, but this was a whole other experience. The air pressure is all funked up and its energy really fills the room so much so that the hour and a half experience is exhausting and afterwards feels like coming out of a psychedelic experience. Slept really well that night.

    was there. absolutely packed. many people sat on the floor towards the back soaking this in. very different experience than i had anticipated but it was surreal nonetheless. the sheer volume and sonic pressure forces you into a trance like state. their set surely felt longer than 1hr20min.
