Ever seen Sunn O))) live? I haven't, but this has to be the next best thing.

I've been up and down this drone-beast's discography, but I've skipped this live album due to its low score on Encyclopaedia Metallum. This is actually very very deep.

Disc 1 starts off in the style of "bassAliens" from 'White2', which gradually gives way to their standard drone chugging in "Hell-O)))-ween". As the rest of the tracks play though, you can definitely see a change in riffing and key as the music goes on, which means now is a good time to tell you that the best way to listen to this is to listen to it from beginning to end without any interruptions.

Disc 2 is much shorter, but the two "Funerael March" songs are pretty good on their own. I definitely prefer disc 1 more, but this is a nice bonus to have.

This live album should definitely be sought out to round off your Sunn O))) collection.
