     40 Watt Sunn hails from London, England and is a three piece band featuring Patrick Walker from former Warning on guitars and vocals, William Spong on bass, and Christian Leitch on drums. This is their only release up to date and stays a consistent slow tempo, repetitive doom. Even though the vocals through out the album are completely clean Patrick Walkers vocals are filled with sorrow and grief. I feel like he just lost his dog its just too devastating especially the track "Carry Me Home" its crushing. Although a bit repetitive the structure does its justice in projecting misery but doesn't really have much of a difference from Walkers former project "Warning" their pretty much the same in my opinion. The album is best described as a slow draining atmosphere of intense depression and loneliness, definitely worth checking out.

For fans of Warning, Pallbearer, and The River
