I've been hoping they'd play 'Earth 2: Special Low Frequency Version' live for years. To me, this is their best album - a perfect encapsulation of what drone music should be.

[@davelanciani-dimaensionx]

Wow, I forgot that their early albums were the main influence for Sunn O)). Very cool.

[@Gr13fKvlt]

The only influence really.

[@itskeefy]

[@ImaginalComponent]

still regretting not flying out to Texas for this show. Now that I'm hearing it... I'm regretting it even more. Beyond grateful for your share here! This is glorious.

[@Tudmoke]

There’ll never be anything like feeling these notes coursing through me for 100 straight minutes, but this is as close as anything could ever get. Thank you so much

[@samdrumz2005]

what's the lineup? (why not to add to description?)

[@Ivan.8067]

Daniel Kirby, thanks for sharing!!!
🇧🇷🤝👉👍

[@OMSHANTISHANTISHANTIHI]

Anyone know if this gig will be pressed onto vinyl/cd?

[@Tudmoke]

Also, for those who weren’t there: every time you hear a cymbal, that’s coming from the back of the church! One of the percussionists was back there the whole time, it took me ages to realize it wasn’t just the acoustics

[@pushytub]

uhhh.... yeah..?

[@princeikel4349]

🤔 accurate info?

[@Mrg-oh5eg]

Sorry, but that's not accurate. There was only one percussionist and she was on stage. I was a stage hand for this show.

[@Tudmoke]

@@Mrg-oh5eg damn okay maybe it WAS just the acoustics, that’s nuts. Thank you for the info!

[@jade10101]

i was sitting right next to you lol

[@StarcleBlaze]

How loud was it?

[@jade10101]

@@StarcleBlaze very loud but not as overwhelmingly loud as you might expect, the acoustics of the church carried the sound nicely and dylan's guitar tones were amazing, and the massive light show they had projecting was unlike anything ive seen and really made the whole show

Rip Kurt Cobain 30 years. And this dudes lived a nice full life !

[@williamhoulihan6476]

this was truly an amazing experience......thanks for the upload

[@cranklabexplosion-labcentr8245]

How do you get a band like this to play in a church??

[@BlackSailPass_GuitarCovers]

"Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands..."

[@shizukaPNW]

but fr though, this goes insanely hard live

[@pho3nix-]

Wow!

[@yondeRqq]

as an og terror fest attendee i can't say i had the best time at OA this year; felt over crowded and the interactions not as genuine
but this performance has left me with some serious astronaut syndrome since returning home. i think about it a lot; who i was sitting by, the way my chest felt when the lights first cut out, how dehydrated i was yet physically unable to get up for some water, i might spend the rest of my life processing this performance
thanks for uploading this homie

[@liamdoyle8680]

Thank you so much for uploading this. I've been waiting to see something like this since I first discovered Earth in 2005. That's well over half of my life waiting to see this. To anyone who saw it live - may you write the gospels of drone. Euphoric shit.

[@bigolbug]

Many thanks for sharing this with the rest of us who couldn't be there.

[@SanskarWagley]

What was the live lineup for this performance?

[@cranklabexplosion-labcentr8245]
