Sun O))) have signed to Sub Pop and shared their first songs for the venerated Seattle-based label. “Eternity’s Pillars,” “Raise the Chalice,” and “Reverential” are out now on streaming services and as a limited-edition 12” vinyl single. Hear all three tracks below.

“‘Eternity’s Pillars’ is named for the mid-1980s television program created and hosted by jazz visionary and spiritual guru Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda, focusing on her incessant belief in music’s capacity to attain spiritual transcendence,” Sun O))) shared in a press statement. “‘Raise the Chalice’ is named for a rallying cry often uttered by Northwest legend Ron Guardipee throughout the mid-1990s. ‘Reverential’ equally pays respect and sends loud praise to those who came before us with the heaviest burdens, expressions with music and art being the materials of an antiphon.”

Now a duo of founding members Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson, Sunn O))) shared their last new studio LPs, Life Metal and Pyroclasts, in 2019. The band also documented their BBC Radio 6 session from that same year in the 2021 live album Metta, Benevolence.
