Album

Altar is a collaboration album between experimental music groups Boris and Sunn O, released on October 31, 2006 through Southern Lord Records SUNN62. Inoxia Records released their own two-CD version in 2006 which features a bonus track on the first disc, The Sinking Belle Black Sheep, and also features Her Lips. Simon Booth Boris & SUNN O bring out the best in each other see also: Ensemble Pearl. Who'd have thought such a collaboration could produce a song as lovely as The Sinking Belle Favorite track: The Sinking Belle Back Sheep. Eve McGivern. Eve McGivern I picked up the massive 3-disc green vinyl used on a record shopping trip and slipped this onto my turntable. After the initial mess of stuffing my brain back into my head, I decided I needed to hear this in a more portable fashion. Scrivener ð. Scrivener ð This might be my favorite album. Unparalleled cohesion of disparate part. Bell Witch - Mirror Review by Thom Jurek. Altar is a bona fide collaboration between powersonic drone throners Sunn 0 and Japan's experimental rockist thunderhead Boris. Outfitted by the Southern Lord label Sunn 0's vanity plate in an oversize digipack with a four-color, 12-page booklet, with black ink on gold metallic pages, it's a handsome package to say the least. Indeed, the second half of Altar does just that, leaving the audience adrift in left field with little direction or purpose. But, together, the first three tracks are a perfect capitulation of their conjoined aesthetics. Opener Etna creeps in through feedback and slowly building and shifting bass tones before a huge guitar sweep- split between Sunn 0's Greg Anderson and Boris' Takeshi- takes charge a minute in. A veritable war of tones follows, Boris drummer Atsuo filling the low-lying space between the subterranean guitar arches with cymbal rolls.

It fits well within Boris's catalog of experimental album, and is, at the same time, more varied and accessible than anything Sunn O have ever Dunn O, while still retaining their specical feel. Altar starts out with Etna. At this point you'll think Hell, is this one of those o' or rather O those one-sided collabs again, because for the first few minutes it sounds like anything Sunn O recorded in the past 7 years. Low-end guitarbass drones, but the sludgefest
