Sunn O))) – Oracle

Combined LP + CD release. The CD is a bonus item only available through the label's online mail order, when purchasing the vinyl LP and was available to only the first 150 buyers. The vinyl is available on either blue or clear vinyl pressing. According to Southern Lord, Bob Weston cut new lacquers for this repress, although Rashad is still credited on the packaging.

Artwork for the 1xCD is a replica of the <a href="http://discogs.programascracks.com/release/968246">2xCD version</a>, the latter being first sold during Sunn O)))'s Australian tour in the spring of 2007. As a result, it erroneously lists a non-existent second disc which supposedly contains a third track, "Helio)))sophist".

"ORAKULUM was originally composed for a live performance collaboration with the New York sculptor Banks Violette at the Maureen Paley Gallery in London, June of 06. Violette created sculptural representation of SUNN O)))s entire backline in cast resin and salt, including amplifier stacks, instruments, effects & accompaniments. In addition, black laquered stage platforms and sound s were created as a basis for the groups actual backline setup, and a selection of drawings were presented within the context. The result of this performance and collaboration, which was conducted in a sealed gallery space, was intended to generate a feeling of absence, loss and a phantom of what once was. Along with the experiment BELÜLROL PUSZTÍT, it is intended as a document of SUNN O)))s interpretation of such said collaboration."
