SUNN O))) Life Metal demos on Bandcamp

Posted in Bands on June 19, 2020

SUNN O))) is sharing production demos from a pre-production studio session in May 2018 that later led to material on Life Metal and Proclast. Proceeds from the demos will benefit Actblue and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund.

SUNN O))) comments:

SUNN O))) stands in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and the revolutionary movement, the demonstrations and protests in the United States and around the world. We stand in solidarity against the police state, police brutality, against systemic social, institutional racism and bigotry, and are vehemently antiracist and antifascist in our morals. We say fuck you to the horrendous Donald Trump administration and their responses, perhaps the worst government the USA has ever had.

FUCK RACISM.

We will be donating proceeds from sales of these rehearsal demos to ACTBLUE's campaign which splits donations between 70+ community bail funds, mutual aid funds, and racial justice organizers. You can read more about their work HERE.

By purchasing these rehearsal demos you will be directly involved in a large donation to these 70+ causes, which SUNN O))) will make on all of our behalf. The community of music is great, compassionate, aware, and active in these times. The underground is strong and in solidarity! Thank you so much for your interest and support.

Love, SUNN O)))

The demos are available here.
