Now let me tell you this, before I go to my nice bed.
I went out this morning for a meeting to get a new contract and I got it. Of course I did. But let me tell you that last time I got a new contract the VERY SAME SONG popped up on 6 Music.

And it's one of my six most influential bits of music ever.

Name it.

EDIT - It's not strong on lyrics but I've exhausted them in sigs over the years. It's the band I last got a shag to.

But you said influential.
Or did you mean they had an influence on you?

I don't get it

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 11 Oct 2012, 22:05, Reply)

Then that is a reflection on you, not the band.

(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Thu 11 Oct 2012, 22:07, Reply)

Sunn o))) are excellent.

Then you need to go back and listen to what came before.
Work forwards from Sabbath.

Are you saying they are the zenith of metal?
Because Linkin Park have that crown

ICP FOREVER!!!

(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Thu 11 Oct 2012, 22:20, Reply)

No, I'm saying that you can trace a path from the first Sabbath LP,
Through bands like those dozer mentioned, plus St Vitus, Earth, etc. to what they are doing.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Thu 11 Oct 2012, 22:23, Reply)

Plus electronic acts like Autechre.
To me, a lot of what Sunn O))) do is about texture and mood, and closer to shit like SAW2 way more than metal.

Sunn O))) are arty, witty, committed and serious. I think this is what goes over the Ape's head.

Still boring

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 11 Oct 2012, 22:34, Reply)

Go and see them live.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Thu 11 Oct 2012, 22:35, Reply)

Not in the least bit boring.
Boring is shite like the fucking Foo Fighters.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Thu 11 Oct 2012, 22:36, Reply)

I really didn't get them at all the first time I saw them play.
But I love Monoliths and Dimensions.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Thu 11 Oct 2012, 22:15, Reply)

I love how they are so serious but properly send up the inherent ridiculousness of heavy metal.
I dig that sort of dichotomy, I really do.

You getting that new GYBE album on Monday?

I'm getting nothing until my missus returns to work.
