Scott-O -- as in Scott Walker and SunnO)))

What!? Is this real?

This is amazing and makes way more sense than LuLu

Leaked album details: Scott0))) release to be called Giggly Friendship Fun, a study of all the participants' bronydom.

Is Oren Ambarchi going to be involved in it as well?

I'm also gonna leave this here:

(and listen to it)

The cherry thing! xps

oh yeah that was p gr8

scott w is pretty much my favorite living musician but I've never quite gotten into sunn O))). News of a new scott project is celebration time around here, though. Here's hoping SW is squarely in the driver's seat and that Peter Walsh and Brian Gascoigne are involved as well.

where did people get an inkling this announcement was coming? I'd heard nothing

If they could do something a bit like Alice but with Scott singing, I think I'll die happy.

Jon Lewis - for me it was just a slash fiction dream I had when I put some Drift and Monoliths tracks side by side on a mix tape. Don't think there were any hints.

i.e. http://www.mixcloud.com/doglatin/eadphuk-vol3/

Bamber Gascoigne is involved? That's me on board, then.

I got a heads up on this a few months ago and was sworn to secrecy on pain of death. The couple of things I know. Scott's in the drivers seat but he wrote the material w/ Sunn 0))) in mind. I know Scott's long term music supervisor was heavily involved in the session too...

HEY EVERYBODY: WE'RE ALL GONNA GET LAID!!!

. I know Scott's long term music supervisor was heavily involved in the session too...

That's Walsh I think? Excellent.

While we wait, what can I listen to that'll get me more excited abt sunn? I haven't checked in w them in a few years.

Collaboration with Ulver is supposed to be v good

I personally think that the Ensemble Pearl side project (members of Sunn O))), Boris, and Jesse Sykes & the Sweet Hereafter) lp from last was massively underrated, most people seem quite meh about it. I thought it was a masterpiece.

edit: from last year

will sound like a year at the dentist's

The first track on the Ulver collab is fantastic. The stuff with vocals, not so much. Pretty much anytime they collaborate with a vocalist (who's not Attila), I start yawning. Not particularly looking forward to this record for that reason.

The Ulver collaboration was fine but a bit on the short side and not the earth-shattering accomplishment that some people were expecting. I like it but it's not amazing.

Atilla's vocals I've mostly gotten used to but a great deal of it is extremely hammy and daft. Walker would be a definite step up.

I am claiming my place on the pre-version album, like, right mow!

Is there a tracklist yet?

Nope

kinda surprised scott has another set of songs already, only a year and a bit after bish bosch

xp
Morbs has the title scoop though "a year at the dentist's".

...if your dentist has the lugubrious pipes of scott walker, sure.

He always says he wants to do another record soon when he releases something. But yeah amazed it's actually happening this time. Then again, it could be more of a pendant work like punishing kiss was to tilt or and who shall come to the ball? was to Drift.

Then again, the two punishing kiss songs are abso top shelf scott so we should be so lucky.

That's my guess too, Jon Lewis. Although Oblique up here said it was mainly SW's project. Maybe working with O'Malley just opened up something and made way for lots of creativity.

Plus, wins said 'a set of songs', but it could just as well be a 2x25mins compositions lp.

In my view Monoliths and Dimensions is SunnO)))'s crowning achievement. Love Attilla's vocals, reminds me of Gary Oldman in Dracula.

That and the Oracle EP, yeah.

nah, peak is sustained consistent from whites through moad. more a flowering. like with a manyness of them, stamena, pistii, etc.

Hmm yeah I guess I was thinking of epic bish bosch style nos but I guess it could be a couple of small songs like "darkness" or "rosary" made monolithic

i'm in for the pre-covers project if it gets off the ground.. a perfect outlet for my dodgy Scott Walker vocal impersonation...

This is a thing I was born to be in pre-cover for.

But, as you say, if it turns out to be two long pieces (which I doubt, tbf), someone is going to have to segue them together.

julian cope must have shat his pants with glee when he heard about this

I'm holding out for a 'Picnic of Love'-style acoustic singsong.

So who's starting a pre-covers thread then?

Those only get started when you actually know the titles, right? We have no information at all.

ah true, true.

I'll be practising my haunted baritone while staring in the mirror with the lights out.

Yeah, titles needed first. However, doesn't mean you can't start planning your own masterworks.

He always says he wants to do another record soon when he releases something.

he has been speeding up his release schedule this decade.

It dawns on me around this time each year that we'll never hear a new Scott Walker album again. And no doubt we won't get any sort of outtakes or lost recordings gubbins either cos he wasn't that kind of artist. And this is a deep deep shame
