Dømkirke is a live album by American drone metal band Sunn O))) that was recorded at Bergen Cathedral in Bergen, Norway, during the Borealis Festival.[4] The album was pressed only on vinyl,[5] but it was later made available in digital-download and streaming formats. It is a double album that features one track on each side of the records. The packaging of Dømkirke features artwork by the Norwegian visual artist Tania Stene.
Nicholas Mollerhaug of the Borealis Festival commissioned the performance by Sunn O))). The band did not publicize in advance the appearance of vocalist Attila Csihar, due to his history with the black metal genre and that genre's association with a string of church arsons in Norway, the first of which occurred in the city of Bergen.[6]
