Sunn O))) and Boris – Altar

Nothing about this is specifically excellent, in fact very little about it is specific in any way at all but the impact it has is very focussed and primal. I’m finding it hard to describe it because the words don’t quite do it justice. I really liked it though, I didn’t really like the vocal tracks on the album very much but the dark instrumental sections are incredibly well crafted. Production is pretty good. I’m sure it’s probably brickwalled to death but in a way it kind of suits the project. Not something I could listen to all the time, but I like the atmosphere it has.
