After seven years of silence, Sunn O))) are firing up the amps and hitting the road once again. The emblematic drone metal duo are set to launch a North American tour this spring for a long-awaited run that will include stops in Canada.
Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson are also announcing Sunn O))), their first album since Life Metal and Pyroclasts, released in 2019. Due out April 3 via Sub Pop, the record marks their arrival on the storied Seattle label. Today, they share Glory Black, the album’s closing track, which continues the group’s musical explorations: immersive, almost ceremonial, and fully aligned with Sunn O)))’s aesthetic.
Those who have seen the band live can attest that Sunn O)))’s concerts remain an experience unto themselves. They function less as traditional performances than as rituals where volume, resonance, and acoustics are bended in ways you wouldn't think imaginable.
The band will perform in Montréal on April 13 at Le National, before heading to Toronto the following night for a show at 131 McCormack. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. local time.
