Sunn O's latest album may be their best, as dozens of collaborators join on four epic tracks that run from slow metal to shimmering orchestral drone. Here they exploit a newfound spaciousness and elegance, folding in horns, strings, harp, light percussion, and voices while losing none of their visceral power. Per their long-standing dogma, "Maximum volume yields maximum results." But this time, there's enough musical range and temperance to usher even the most resolute naysayer into this intricate wonderland.
