released October 26, 2014

"The cassette’s title refers to its three discrete sections, echoing cello and drones that conjure their provided association as much or as little as you might care to allow; “La Marche” mimics the rhythm of staggered motion with a backdrop of little synthetic conceits, while “Le Discours” and “Le Souper” feel more like abstracted expositions, with the latter exploring a particularly deep, resonant palette of sounds. This is an austere but still nourishing collection, at times even cinematic, though it speaks more articulately of presence than emotion. "

-Decoder

"The stark beauty of this drone is matched only by the elegant simplicity of the artwork. Three tracks that gravitate around the black holes of our mind; music made for a rendezvous where everything happens in threes. The trio of tone rings the full alert, whispers ‘walk calmly towards the nearest exit’ and lays out a feast amongst the infinitesimal screaming silence of space."

-Weird Canada

"This rad new tape, released on Hobo Cult, is best described as haunted chamber music. Taking center stage here is bowed double bass that swells and pulses while electronic components creak and chirp in accompaniment, making up for a lack of brass or percussive elements typically found in orchestral movements. It’s slow, plodding (but my no means dull) and certainly ominous."

"Recorded during SUNN O)))s European tour 2005, culminating at Roskilde Festival, Denmark" : laissez-moi vous dire qu'il n'y a pas que cette tournée qui arrive à son point culminant mais aussi Sunn O))) d'un point de vue général car Solstitium Fulminate, qui sert d'appendice à Black One, est un monument qui conjugue noirceur vampirique avec une certaine forme d'absolu. Le ton musical plonge très vite dans les graves pour nous faire entrer dans le royaume de la mort. Attila Csihar est un Charon. Jordan Vauvert

A totally absorbing album, I love how the subtleties and intricacies grab and hold your attention. Melodies and rhythms weave around drone and noise elements which themselves have great movement. Field recordings add tension, at times there's a mechanical feel yet each song also feels like an unfolding story that you are a part of. Andrulian

All Life Long
by Kali Malone

supported by 6 fans who also own “LA MARCHE, LE DISCOURS, LE SOUPER”

"The paradox of an infinite string of unique moments informing the repetitive nature of being. The Unification of Inner and Outer Life as the last track’s title suggests? That’s probably impossible. But this album might help getting closer to that goal. Music triggering the weight and scale of the human experience." my review on Veil of Sound: https://veilofsound.com/2024/02/26/Kali_Malone-All_Life_long.html Der Ohlsen
