even though the band sights earth and melvins as their biggest influences this guy wants to make it seem like Sunn0)))'s music comes from nowhere - just these two crazy metal guys.

I like the music itself, but only occasionally, and my affection for the band depends greatly on their nonmusical appeal (production of collectible objects, think value, weirdness factor, etc.).
Black One is the best thing they've ever done, closely followed by the White albums and Flight of the Behemoth. Didn't like 'em so much when they were following more closely in Earth's footsteps. Earth just did the dreamlike magma-metal thing a million times better.
P.S. Haven't we passed the pull-date on their novelty value? Where does the line for the backlash start?

Oracle is great.

It's funny how you can track their influences over time. "Hey, Greg, you think anybody else has ever heard of this band Einsturzende Neubaten?" "Nah, we're still the coolest guys on the block, Steve..."

Is the Observatory thing just going to basically be a drone you can check out at any time that weekend?

There is an event on the evening of 9/23 that will include live performances from Lawrence English and a couple others. That event is limited capacity with tix $50 or $100. The rest of the weekend you could go for free and it will be more like an art installation.
Whiney or any other writers in LA, there is also a press event on that Thursday if you’re interested. You can write me at sjtennent@gmail if you’re interested.

https://fulcrumfestival.org/exhibit/ocean-x-space-a-special-evening-of-sounds-and-stars/
Fulcrum Arts and Mount Wilson Observatory present a very special evening of sonic immersion and star gazing with performances by freq_wave artists Lawrence English and Minoru Sato. The performances will be followed by an evening of star gazing through the 100-inch Hooker Telescope, all while immersed in the sonic landscape of CM von Hausswolff‘s freq_wave (Pacific; Los Angeles) installation.
Lawrence English will open the night with the world-premiere diffusion of his 2022 release, ‘Oseni, composed of field recordings of the Pacific Ocean, which English has captured over the past decade and a half in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and elsewhere.
Minoru Sato will perform Half dream for an ancient harmony of three to two (2020), a piece based entirely on sine waves as the single sound source and composed using an original 25-tone scale based on Pythagorean tuning (also known as sanfen sunyi in Chinese music theory).
Due to the limited capacity of this unique venue, tickets are strictly limited to 100 concert tickets and 25 concert + observation tickets.

Did anyone else see the winter 2022-23 tour? I went last night to Denver and felt like my DNA had been rearranged after the show. Easily among the top five or six loudest bands I've ever seen (although this was my second time). The concert felt like a cross between a religious ritual and performance art. A mind-blowingly intense and overwhelming experience.

yeah, I saw them a month or so ago here. pretty memorable. set off the fire alarms three or four times.
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 1 February 2023 20:39 (one year ago) link
At the Gothic? Yeah, that would be a rad place to see them.

I was at the Philly show, though after the first 20-25 minutes I spent the rest of the set seated out in the lobby because it was a standing affair and I was afraid the intensity would cause me to pass out.

I was standing right behind the front-row folks and could barely see anyone around me through the insanely dense fog.
― I can't tell if he's trolling or not (ilxor), Thursday, 2 February 2023 06:22 (one year ago) link
I'm guessing the show is still relatively close to the late 2019 iteration and that was intense!
I did end up taking a short hallway break. It was during a festival, though, and I'd honestly felt satiated with fifteen minutes left
