Artist
Named after an area of reported paranormal activity in the Iraqi desert, Sunk Field L. plays a style know as paranormal doom, taking elements from genres such as doom metal, noise, sludge, drone, ambient, and jazz. Most recordings are improvised, though they do contain some riffs and ideas composed beforehand. Instruments used range from the common set of drums, guitars, and basses, to the piano, electric violin, cello, microwave oven, and sometimes power tools. Sunk Field L drifts slowly between chaotic noisescapes, gentle ambience, and crushing doom and drone. Vocals are found sparsely amidst this sonic sea, occasionally as strained shouts of fear and anger, but more often spoken, exploring various subjects surrounding the paranormal, the unknown, and human consciousness. Sunk Field L's formation started as a side project of the more conventional "brickcore" band Skullfiend, its founders dissatisfied with the bands generic approach to composition and its lack of musical direction.
