Sunrot’s ‘Passages’: The Crushing Weight of Heaviness
When a band names their album Passages, you might expect a journey—a careful narrative structure leading from point A to B. But with Sunrot, that journey isn’t a scenic route; it’s a grueling, full-contact crawl through tectonic plate shifts.
Sunrot has never been a band content with simply being heavy. They wield noise as both a blunt weapon and a surgical tool, carving politically charged fury into the monolithic foundation of sludge and doom. Their latest effort, Passages, isn’t just their most ambitious recording to date—it’s a necessary, cathartic, and utterly devastating experience that solidifies their position at the vanguard of modern extreme music.
