SUNN O))) proceeds go to ActBlue, with the donations split
between 70+ community bail funds, mutual aid funds, and racial justice
organizers. // Bandcamp proceeds go to NAACP Legal Defense Fund.
At the end of May 2018—
in preparation for their session at Electrical Audio in Chicago with
Steve Albini from which would emerge the Life Metal and Pyroclasts albums— SUNN
O))) entered 606 Studios in Los Angeles for a preproduction session. 606 is the
studio owned by The Foo Fighters and Dave Grohl and features the mythical Sound
City Neve desk. T.O.S, Greg and Stephen spent four days arranging and
rehearsing those tracks, and they were captured by engineer John Lousteau.
These tracks would go on to become the critically acclaimed Life Metal and
Pyroclasts albums, released in April and October 2019, respectively, on
Southern Lord Recordings.
SUNN O))) comments: “SUNN O))) stands in solidarity with the
BLACK LIVES MATTER movement and the revolutionary movement, the demonstrations
and protests in the United
States and around the world. We stand in solidarity against the police
state, police brutality, against systemic social, institutional racism and
bigotry, and are vehemently antiracist and antifascist in our morals. We say
fuck you to the horrendous Donald Trump administration and their responses,
perhaps the worst government the USA has ever had.
FUCK RACISM.
We will be donating proceeds from sales of these rehearsal
demos to ACTBLUE’s campaign which splits donations between 70+ community bail
funds, mutual aid funds, and racial justice organizers. You can read more about
their work here: https://bit.ly/2BQwmK8
By purchasing these rehearsal demos you will be directly
involved in a large donation to these 70+ causes, which SUNN O))) will make on
all of our behalf.
The community of music is great, compassionate, aware and
active in these times. The underground is strong and in solidarity! Thank you so much for your interest and
support.
LOVE
SUNN O)))”
