SUNN O))) GOING ON TO)))URR

Sunn O))) is a band I in no way, shape, or form “get,” or even appreciate. It’s like how my mom must have felt when she heard me blasting Countdown to Extinction in my youth. Just, this totally alien sound to which my ears refuse to warm.

But I do know a lot of people out there LOVE them. And they’re gonna be doing a handful of dates in the U.S. this August and September, which, I’m told, are their first gigs in the country in more than three years. And, hey, it’s not like there’s a shortage of tours for me to look forward to in August and September. So why be a dick? Let the Sunn O))) fans have their fun. Or whatever it is they have when they go see Sunn O))).
