The First Track From The Latest Sunn O Album "Monoliths & Dimensions" Attila Csihar Wrote And Performed The Lyrics On This Song And Also On Big Church And Hunting & Gathering. Commenting On This Song's Meaning He Said To The Wire Magazine In Issue #302 That
the Concept Of “Aghartha” Was To Go Under The Earth And Beyond The Sky Beyond Our Perceptions In A Way. I Had Heard Many Legends About This Underworld Continent Called Aghartha ... Aghartha Is Supposed To Be Inside The Hollow Earth ... I Was Focusing On This Legend It's Like A Journey To The Centre Through The Poles And The People Who Believed In This They Thought That When You Approach The Poles To The North Pole And To The South Pole That There Is A Hole At Each Point. According To The Legend If You Imagine A Hole About The Size Of 100 Km Or Something. They Say That In The Centre There Is A Sun An Inner Sun. But You Know I Think It Was Very Fitting To What The Music Means To Me With The Drones This Gravity. It's Always Down. It's About The Mass Of Sound. So I Thought This Theme Of What Lies Under The Earth Was A Good Fit.Original Text

Attila Csihar wrote and performed the lyrics on this song, and also on Big Church, and Hunting & Gathering. Commenting on this song's meaning, he said to The Wire magazine in issue #302 that
the concept of “Aghartha” was to go under the earth and beyond the sky, beyond our perceptions, in a way. I had heard many legends about this underworld continent called Aghartha [...] Aghartha is supposed to be inside the hollow Earth [...] I was focusing on this legend, it's like a journey to the centre, through the poles, and the people who believed in this, they thought that when you approach the poles, to the North Pole and to the South Pole, that there is a hole at each point. According to the legend, if you imagine a hole about the size of 100 km or something. They say that in the centre there is a sun, an inner sun. But you know, I think it was very fitting to what the music means to me, with the drones, this gravity. It's always down. It's about the mass of sound. So I thought this theme of what lies under the Earth was a good fit.original text Read more on Last.fm.
