SUNN 0))) vs EARTH
Earth, the legendary Seattle group. As it was in the beginning,
Earth is still helmed by Dylan Carlson, joined by permanent member
Adrienne Davies on drums / percussion. Dylan Carlson is regarded as
an innovator within ambient, experimental, drone, doom circles. His
compositions and playing can be credited with influencing diverse
groups and musicians such as: Sunn O))), Boris, Jim O •Rourke,
Mogwai, Justin Broaderick (Godflesh/Jesu) and even Kurt
Cobain.
In the past Earth t ook the heaviness of Black Sabbath and the
Melvins to an even slower more mammoth plane. With •Hex …•they
have incorporated these new influences into an innovative sound all
their own.It •s a sound that is bold, vital and as essential as
anything they have ever done in the past, arguabley more so.
SUNN 0))) is a side project of Khanate/Burning Witch (Steve O’
Malley) and Goatsnake (Greg Anderson) members. It was formed in
memory of the cult drone-riff founders EARTH and honors the
beautiful Ozma. The SUNN0))) mission is to create trance like
soundscapes with the ultimate low end/bottom frequencies intended
to massage the listeners intenstines into a act of defecation.
