Joining us this week is Greg Anderson, co-founder of the experimental metal band Sunn O))) and its label home Southern Lord Records. We discuss the band’s recent output Metta, Benevolence BBC 6Music: Live On the Invitation of Mary Anne Hobbs a live recording captured in 2019 at the legendary Maida Vale Studios in London. We discuss how these drones and improvisations from the band’s 2019 releases Life Metal and Pyroclasts came to life and evolved over the course of their last European tour, culminating in the recording that also featured Swedish musician Anna von Hausswolff. Metta, Benevolence is Sunn O)))’s fourth official live recording since its landmark Monoliths and Dimensions release and we explore how live performance has impacted their studio work since. Greg also shares insights into his upcoming solo material and curatorial vision for Southern Lord Records, one of the most influential labels in heavy music.
