Sunn O))) and Boris - Altar

[q]

Holy shit, a split Sunn O))) and Boris album!

Has anyone heard it?

If you have not, you need to (if you are a fan of either bands).

i never got what was so good about Sunn O)))... its like a very long guitar riff with screaming in the background :[[

[sd-]

I'm sorry but sunn is just not... good

[bayz]

i'm guessing this is drone stuff as opposed to boris's psychedelic rock thing, yeah?

[LunaticWithCandy]

Yea, Sunn O))) is a drone band, I don't "get" drone, maybe someday I will.

[q]

If you do not regularly listen to drone or doom metal or know the history of the genre, then you will not appreciate Sunn O))).

But on the side, Boris kicks a lot of ass.

[LunaticWithCandy]

Doom is one of my favorite genres but I just do not get drone bands at all. It just bores me.

I've never listened to Boris.
