Sunn O)))

Sunn O))) is an experimental drone metal band formed in 1998 in Seattle, Washington, United States, by core members Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson. Renowned for their monumental loudness, immersive live performances, and avant-garde sound, Sunn O))) draws inspiration from a diverse array of genres, including doom metal, minimalism, and dark ambient music. The band’s music is characterized by extremely down-tuned guitars, sustained drones, and an emphasis on texture and atmosphere over traditional song structures, creating sonic experiences that are both meditative and overwhelming.

Over their career, Sunn O))) has collaborated with an array of influential artists, including Scott Walker, Attila Csihar, and Merzbow, continually pushing the boundaries of contemporary experimental music. Their albums, such as "Black One," "Monoliths & Dimensions," and "Life Metal," have received critical acclaim for their innovative approach and uncompromising vision. With their distinctive hooded robes and fog-shrouded stage presence, Sunn O))) has developed a devoted international following, cementing their status as one of the most influential acts in the realm of experimental and heavy music.
