Photo Review: Sunn O))) Live at The Belasco

Experiencing a Sunn O))) performance is mind altering, as they are a genuinely unconventional act. While they defy easy categorization, their music delivers a sonic experience that goes far beyond conventional concert norms. The sheer loudness of their shows, even with earplugs, provides a stark contrast to the typical live music experience.

The duo’s performance unfolded amidst a row of stacked amps, flashing lights and dense fog- creating an otherworldly and meditative atmosphere. You could feel the experience as much as you could hear it.

Sunn O))) stands out in a league of their own, with a heavy sound amplification that is both serene and experimental. In essence, Greg and Stephen evoke a profound emotional response and provide a uniquely immersive musical experience for their fans.
