Today, Wednesday, October 25th, marks the release of brand new Sub Pop Singles Club Vol. 8 contributions from SUNN O))) and Telehealth – both available now on all DSPs and as limited-edition vinyl 7” singles.
 
SUNN O)))) formed in March 1998 in Los Angeles. A synthesis of the diverse: drone, ur, noise, metal, minimalism/maximalism. Supported by a cast of collaborators, SUNN O))) has two core members: Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson. For twenty years, SUNN O))) have been challenging the way we think about music. From 1999’s The Grimmrobe Demos to 2019’s Life Metal,  O’Malley and Anderson have forged connections between the worlds of metal, drone, contemporary composition, jazz, and minimalism with startling results while remaining true to the eternal principles of volume, density, and weight.
 
On this release, SUNN O))) pay transcendent, thunderous tribute to two departed friends and titans of heavy music: Death maestro Chuck Schuldiner on “Evil Chuck,” and Ron Guardipee of Brotherhood on “Ron G. Warrior.”
 
Seattle’s Telehealth is an unpredictable pop band with heavy nods to post-punk, minimal synth, egg-punk, new wave, art rock, glam, and krautrock.
 
After gRoUnDbReAkInG acclaim of their debut album, Content Oscillator, Telehealth is back with two new singles via Sub Pop. “Mindtrap,” a nervy, exuberant blast of Devo-esque synthesizer-laden new-wave pop/punk, is an acronym-friendly anthem for corporate soul-searchers in the ‘new normal’. Its counterpart, “Bitter Melody,” is an intricately vocoded and hypnotic groove of YMO-inspired synthesizers exploring validation and warmth in the algorithm era of disassociation.
 
Telehealth wears the color green to remind us all that the American pedagogy, which has become so focused on selling green as a product to alleviate the symptoms of a self-inflicted hellscape. Instead of being upset, Telehealth embraces uncertainty and absurdity.
