A weekly exploration of strange subgenres and experimental movements, Uncanny Valley compares and contrasts two records - one fresh, one classic - and grounds them in their respective musical contexts. From no wave to noise pop, future funk to freak folk, the program will shine a spotlight on left-field releases from across the world.

This week on Uncanny Valley, we get pummelled by the intense bass frequencies of drone metal. Tracks are taken from Sunn O)))'s latest record 'Life Metal', produced by Steve Albini, as well as their collaborative LP 'Altar', which they recorded in 2006 with Japan's Boris.
