It's drone, Jim, but not as we know it. One of metal's most theatrical and divisive sonic-generators, Sunn O))), return to greet us with what is often regarded as their most appeasing creation: Monoliths & Dimensions, dragging in tow a veritable armada of guest musicians (apparently nearly three dozen) ranging from classical artists, a drone progenitor (Dylan Carlson no less) and a certain infamous, and slightly demented, voice of black metal persuasion, all contributing to, in varying degrees, what is likely Sunn O)))'s most expansive and diverse vision to date.

On a Sunn O))) binge and it's revealed to me that this album is considerable weaker than I first realised. It's quite overbearing and lacking in subtlety. I retract the statement from my review: this album is not as deep as the artwork suggests.
7.5

Meh, your past self is cooler than I thought. Not like it is a masterpiece but it is a pretty good album and I agree wth the review 
The last track is hella sweet.

The last track is the highlight but it felt like the first few tracks were just walls of drone without any intelligence behind it. I definitely prefer older stuff, I even properly listened to Domkirke which I have to say is rather impressive.

It's a pretty nice live album indeed. Shame it's only on vinyl.

On a side note:
Just a small explanation of "megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért":
It's the longest possible word in Hungarian language (probably the idea came from Csihar to use it)
It can be translated to something like this: "for all of your acting-like-you-cannot-be-sacrileged"
