American/Canadian post-metal supergroup “… in the spirit of Keiji Haino, Peter Brötzmann and Milford Graves, unleashed on Sunn O))) amps” (The Quietus)

SUMAC (US/CA) is a post-metal supergroup featuring (former) members of ISIS, Russian Circles and Old Man Gloom. Paste Magazine summed up their spirit perfectly: “For SUMAC, metal is a destructible aesthetic temple whose parts can be re-sculpted to take any form, so long as the end result is the right blend of disorienting, harsh, and beautiful.”  
SUMAC deliberately pries open the metal door to noise and improv. Fine examples of this: the collaboration with Japanese avant-garde pioneer Keiji Haino, as well as their EPs Before you appear (2016) and The Keeper’s Tongue (2024) – which were pulled through the remixer by Kevin Drumm, Samuel Kerridge and Moor
Mother respectively. And that in circles where remixing is seen as the work of the devil. 
Enter: their latest album The Film, which continues their collaboration Moor Mother (see also: 700 Bliss, Irreversible Entanglements). Oor Magazine said: “Addictive and cathartic.” Echoes and Dust: “The Film is an uncompromising, unrelenting, uncommercial, and unstoppable record.” 
Please note: Moor Mother will (unfortunately) not be present on the night.
