Considered as “one of the loudest bands on earth”, Sunn O))) was invited to perform on the last day of Unsound Festival in Krakow. It was an uncommon experiance to attend such an event.

The crowd was provided with earplugs and it was certainly a good idea to wear them. The sound was so loud that we didn’t miss a single voice – even with our ears covered. The floor vibrated from low bass tones, one could feel it with his whole body. The slow, drone ambient music was very impressive live, making an unforgettable experiance.

Compared to a typical rock concert, the show was more like a theatre spectacle – the crowd stood still, contemplating the music. It lasted for about 75 minutes, and I doubt anyone could stand more – it was very exhausting.

I’m very glad that I decided to see it – it was a very uncommon evening.
