Sunn O))) - Kannon mp3 download

Akinohn

My copy of this was noisy straight out of the shrink wrap. Seems to be warped. Anyone else have bad luck with their pressing of this album?

CONVERSE

side b, mostly all kannon 3 has this noisy wave that you can hear constantly, its so loud i checked mp3 file to know if this was somehing really recorded on the record but it's not so pressing in my copy at least is horrible.i got the black vinyl with black flexi

Goldenfang

Same to say as about the Japanese 2CD edition: If you already own several Sunn o))) albums, you will find nothing really new at first on Kannon. Attila Csihar contributing his well-known moaning voice to Sunn o)))'s well-known moaning riffs in the well-known moaning manner. Best thing to tell about this album for a start seems to be the bonus flexi- disc, as there's much more variety both in Csihar's vocalizing and Sunn o)))'s A-dropping walls of doom. As well there are several field recordings used for the background of Aokigahara // Jukai.However, when you make the next step reading the textes about Kannon and listen to the whole album again, you will discover more beyond its well-known surface. Find out yourself whether it is worth it ... ;0)!

so where's the difference between this one and this one: https://www.discogs.com/Sunn-O-Kannon/release/7828515 ?

Giamah

Superb sound, much better than on previous albums in my opinion. K1 and K3 are five-star pieces.

Arryar

This edition is still available via Sunn O))) website for $20.00...

Nagis

Any reason why people are selling this for $75+?

Andromathris

I bought my copy from Sunn O))) directly, no price gouging here. :) Thanks for the reply. Just curious to know if there was another reason beyond people just being people.

FireWater

Any comments on the sound quality of the clear vinyl?

Whitestone

I preordered the clear version with a flexi disc and I have to say, the flexi track was absolutely awesome. Still listening to the LP as I type this but I'm liking it so far.Question, it says in the release notes for my copy that it came with a poster but I did not get one. Does anyone know wherher this was an error on the site or a packaging mishap?

Livina

Ouch. Must have been rushing, would suck to get the copy without the poster, or a bit, at any rate.

Yainai

Mine came with a poster. FYI.

Yla

I think there was a black vinyl version with white vinyl flexi available for pre-order until a week or so ago.

Pemand

Thanks for the confirmation JAAX; version submitted.

Der Bat

I got my black version with the flexi disc on November 28. I was a bit surprised getting it as early since I live in Sweden. This must be the first time they ship it before the actual release date.

Doomblade

I bought this version by accident while trying to buy the white colored pressing on Black Friday. I ain't even mad tho because it's such a good album - a nearly entirely instrumental piece that straddles the border between ambient and metal, and in a style of metal that has aspirations towards classical music. It's similar in a lot of ways to Sleep's Dopesmoker or the proto-metal/proto-noise/proto-everything grind and rage of The Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray". Now I need to listen to Soused and OO Void.

Avarm

Yeah, I'm digging the record as a whole too. I really like the packaging.

Jox

Kind of disappointed that this version doesn't come with the flexidisc like the preorder, but its still worth it (especially since my record store was having a black friday sale). Album is really good and interesting, i feel like the tracks are more like movements instead of songs.

2000 Pressed ..."LIMITED"???.....hm..

Yggfyn

'Limited' doesn't mean 'pressed in a little quantity'

Love Me

My copy, which has the white vinyl limited edition sticker, is in a sealed bag with a perforated edge for opening. So, if your copy is not in a sealed bag like this, it was probably opened and rebagged.

Malann

Haven't had a chance to listen yet. Looking forward to it.

Mr.Twister

Very good album, regardless, the first album I'd listened to from beginning to end by Sunn and now I need to hear more of them.

Hulbine

Mine was in a sealed bag without the sticker.

Arlana

No flexi with this issue? Interested what's on it...

Gtonydne

@guitarromantic The copy I got was white. It had a sticker on the cover that said "Limited Edition of 2000 - Sun O))) - Kannon - White Vinyl - Limited Edition of 2000"

Armin

@guitarromantic - if yours is white vinyl, it's the "limited" RSD version. the standard LP release is on clear or black vinyl :)

SING

There was no sticker on mine. Maybe the record store accidentally put the standard LP release out instead of the limited edition release. This store usually doesn't make those mistakes, tho. Odd.

grand star

The copy I bought this morning (at Disc Go Round in Corpus Christi, Texas, USA) is on black vinyl, not white. Anyone else have this happen to them? I don't mind getting it in black, since that color supposedly has superior sound over colored vinyl, but apparently the white vinyl is a limited pressing... :(
