White2

Black vinyl reissue in gatefold sleeve with obi strip
White2 was originally released in 2004 by Southern Lord as a CD and limited double LP edition of 1000 copies (in a tip on gatefold sleeve in various vinyl colors). Sunn O))) co-founders Stephen O’Malley & Greg Anderson originally conceived the White albums to be “acoustic” but the sessions at Fontanelle’s Magnetic Park studios in Portland Oregon quickly took a far different route toward the psychedelic and the electronic/synthetic, with trance and drone experiments
The White2 album was notably the first collaboration with the Hungarian legend & singer Attila Csihar, which has since begat a long and fruitful creative story of the O))) ethos. With the White albums Sunn O))) took a bold step the experimental and highly collaborative path the concept of the group has traveled since. Together with Attila, White2 featured the extraordinary talents of special guests Joe Preston, Rex Ritter & Dawn Smithson. Along with white1, the album brought the concept of Sunn O))) forth from the shadows of the earth unto the broader cosmos spheres, arriving at a truly transcendent note with the pairing of the “Decay” tracks featuring Attila. And, the sky cracked open
