Additional notes
Earth are considered pioneers of drone doom and were a major influence on Sunn O))). They broke up in 1997 and re-united in 2003. Their musical style ranges from abrasive drone metal (Earth 2), to stoner rock (Pentastar) and lately, more minimalist, meditative doom with gospel and country influences.
The Sunn Amps and Smashed Guitars compilation contains, amongst others, a demo track where Kurt Cobain (of Nirvana fame) is the vocalist. He features as vocalist on the 'Divine and Bright' 7". He guested on Extra-Capsular Extraction, doing backing vocals on the track "A Bureaucratic Desire for Revenge."
