Hey this came out today. I heard it. It's decent. Maybe not quite the world building of the Drift or Bish Bosch, quite a few familiar ideas in here too, but it's Scott and it's Sunn O))) so it's obviously ace. Feels like a more naked version of the extent Scott sound. I'm more aware of what is actually going on than before.

Sounds almost exactly as I had anticipated. Enjoyed the 30 minutes I listened to on the walk to work this morning, being buffeted by winds.

Also I thought it sounded as if he was singing about Balfour Beaty.

I have had Soused for 5 days and have spun it more times than I listened to Bish Bosch in 5 weeks after buying it. I prefer it.

Holy crap. This is as good as I accidentally imagined it would be for a second when I heard about it, before sanity kicked in and I lowered my expectations.

The most surprising thing on this album are its first opening seconds. And yeah it sounds like GnR.
― Shepard Toney Album (dog latin), Wednesday, 22 October 2014 00:45 (nine years ago) link
It's really good, though Lullaby sent me back to Ute Lemper's version where, just for the briefest moment, she sounds like Billy Mackenzie.

It's on the Japanese edition of her Punishing Kiss album.

Lemper version is so definitive I think of this one as a cover (an excellent one). It's interesting that Scott took out the "fa la la" sections, song feels quite different without them

― Daniel, Esq 2, Wednesday, 22 October 2014 23:56 (nine years ago) link
i hope sunn o))) names their next album 'lou barlow' and it's just one chord played for sixty minutes with the lyric 'lou barlow' intoned at a glacial pace over the whole running time.

this is a good listen. certainly more listenable than Bisch Bosch and the Drift; it has a nice ominous cozy feel to it. Perfect for a dreadful autumn.

Oh, Lou. Scott has a whip man. From Bristol. Everyone knows that.

Well Lou's always had a reputation for being a miserable git.

The other factual error in there is he gets the lyrics to his 'favorite scott walker song' wrong (the string tied to the underwear is plastic palace people not montague terrace)
― a drug by the name of WORLD WITHOUT END (Jon Lewis), Thursday, 23 October 2014 11:24 (nine years ago) link
Online hardman's "takedown" is more deserving of our attention than this wasteman
― 龜✊ (wins), Thursday, 23 October 2014 12:24 (nine years ago) link
lou was saying plastic palace people is ~montague terrace era~ but sort of a strange way to tag a scott ~era~ and smacks of half-assed attempt to appear to have interest/investment

Not really heard this yet and while I don't find the music of SunnO))) particularly interesting, "this sounded like shit on my computer speakers" is such a dumb fucking criticism.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 23 October 2014 15:33 (nine years ago) link
God that Lou Barlow piece is one of the least convincing arguments I've ever read. Scott has made a Christmas album - Bish Bosch.

Comparing Sunn O))) to a load of 80s proto-grunge and industrial is getting it wrong too.
