SUNN O))) To Release 'Kannon' Album In December

Southern Lord Recordings will release a new studio album from SUNN O))), "Kannon", on December 4. Composed in the aftershadow of SUNN O))) 's most recent successes in immersive collaboration — the group having worked with Scott Walker on "Soused", and ULVER on "Terrestrials" in 2013 and 2014 — and also from the broad and influential wake of their epitomic "Monoliths & Dimensions", "Kannon" emerged both independently as a conceptual entity and with roots in the legacies of those projects, yet was fully realized years later in 2015. The album consists of three pieces of a triadic whole: "Kannon 1, 2 and 3". The album celebrates many SUNN O))) traditions; "Kannon" was recorded and mixed with SUNN O)))'s close colleague and co-producer Randall Dunn in Seattle, in Studio Litho, Aleph and Avast!, and the LP includes performances by long term allies and collaborators Attila Csihar, Oren Ambarchi, Rex Ritter, and Steve Moore, to name a few. At the core, the composition centers around the dynamic and intense guitar and bass interplay of SUNN O)))'s founders: Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson. It is possibly the most figurative album SUNN O))) has created, which is unusual as they usually dwell in layers of abstraction and subjectivity. On the other hand, the album is the most outright "metal" in years, drawing personal associations and memories of cherished albums like "Panzerfaust" and "Twilight Of The Gods" again to the forefront of consciousness. "Kannon" is also very close to the cyclical character of mantra which the band has evolved into as a living creature, the enormity of intense sensate detail and manifestation of the live in concert element of SUNN O))), the organism that has flourished, metamorphosed and transcended tremendously over the past ten years. The literal representation of "Kannon" is as an aspect of Buddha: specifically "goddess of mercy" or "Perceiving the Sounds (or Cries) of the World." She is also sometimes commonly known as the Guanyin Bodhisattva amongst a plurality of other forms. There is a rich lineage behind this idea tracing back through many Asian belief systems, with as many names and cultural personifications of the idea. SUNN O))) commissioned critical theorist Aliza Shvartz to write text and liner notes around these ideas and topics. She also explores the relations and perceptions to their approach to these ideas via the metonym of music and SUNN O)))'s place/approach within the framework of music and metal overall. The band also enlisted Swiss designer/artist Angela LaFont Bollinger to create the cover artwork, an abstracted sculpture of vision of "Kannon". French photographer Estelle Hanania captures portraits of the core trio (Csihar, Anderson, O'Malley) in the impressive and obscurant Emanuel Vingeland mausoleum in Oslo. "Kannon" will be available on gatefold LP, CD and digital formats worldwide on December 4, with a limited number of clear vinyl available on Black Friday RSD, Friday, November 27.

Вот уж кто скорее всего удивит, так это они. Либо необычным экспериментом, что у них почти всегда, либо тем, что смогли быть востребованными со всё той же фишкой.
