SUNN O))): "Belgium, Spain, Sweden, Suisse and a few other European countries have recently enacted laws restricting volume/decibel levels at live concerts.

FROM SUNN O))):

Dear fans, regarding the recent tour announcement and feedback about performing in your area. We are enthusiastic about the continued manifestation of the living facets of O))), on stage and around the world. But, obviously we can’t be everywhere at once or on the same tour...
The logistics of touring around the world is a challenge, one which we welcome. Crucially though : Belgium, Spain, Sweden, Suisse and a few other European countries have recently enacted laws restricting volume/decibel levels at live concerts.
Although we have performed in all of these countries in the past, with great experiences, this legislation has made it difficult now to find promoters in those areas willing to cooperate producing O))) concerts with all of the elements we need to bring our vision.
We are not interested to compromise fundamental elements in order to fill a schedule. It’s all or nothing and that is the path to crack open the sky and your minds.
Optimistically, we have had this same issue in France for years, and as is evident this year we were able to find solutions... and it was a huge positive experience for everyone involved : audience, promoters, and us. We have the very best technical team and the concerts operate in a very controlled and essential manner. SUNN O))) is purely nondestructive concept musically, technically and philosophically.
We welcome discussions with all promoters and producers around the world willing to step forward and work with us for live performances. Whether in very special locations (labyrinths, Caves, cathedrals, Temples, museums), concert halls, or black box venues and clubs we want to evoke only the greatest energy when O))) are alive on stage.
Rest assured we are trying and doing everything we can to work on this and bring sunn O))) to those areas!! And any others (South America, Asia in particular).
We love you!
PROMOTERS PLEASE BE IN TOUCH!
Hail to you all
Stephen & Greg / SUNN O)))



Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-
