Pyroclasts was written and recorded alongside what has been described as a "sister album"[2] or a "fraternal twin"[3] album titled Life Metal that was released six months earlier on April 26, 2019. Sunn O))) plus additional collaborators live recorded a new 11-minute improvised drone session at the start or end of each day during the recording of Life Metal. Pyroclasts is a collection of four of those tracks.[4] The title refers to volcanic airborne pyroclastic rock.[5]
