Super good Japanese stoner/doom/sludge other stuff sometimes. Anyone else like them?

Sound Devastation · 12-11-2006, 07:52 AM

nice one.... what else are you into?

My thoughts on Boris vary.. they're so prolific its impossible to hear enough of their releases to form an opinion on the band IMO. i do like what ive heard though, which is Pink, Sun Baked Snow Cave and the fantastic Altar.

I'm into alot of stuff, my taste in music is so varied that its hard to even begin making a list of what I like.

The one thing that gets me about them is that most of their releases are impossible to find in America. I have Amplifier Worship, Megatone, and Heavy Rocks.

They're not easy to get hold of here in the UK either.. surprisingly the collaboration with Sunn O))) is the most widely distributed!

apart from my local record store (who buy in alot of good stuff) i usually buy stuff off the internet, Important Records and Crime mail-order are two of my favourite online stores... both of which stock various Boris releases.

Boris are amazing. The sunn0))) colab is so good.

Sound Devastation · 12-11-2006, 10:24 AM

it is... did you manage to get hold of the limited 2CD version? the second CD is one track, a 23 min collaboration between Boris, Sunn O))) and the guy from Earth. it is immense!

Heavy Rocks is a brutal album. While Pink has more energy oozing from it than the sun. I've got the altar collab but I don't like it as much as the other 2 albums I've got, though it is astoundigly heavy.

Boris are indeed fucking top-shelf stuff. I love them.

Absolutego is probably the most inaccessible album I own, I love it!

GravitySlips · 06-21-2007, 05:11 PM

I'm seeing them live next week.

I love Boris. Their last album, Rainbow (with the guy from Ghost) was awesome, and I love that some of their other albums can vary from long, drone tracks to short and fast, almost hardcore songs. Akuma No Uta is the best example of this, that album is pretty schizophrenic. It's one of my favourites by them.

There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried. I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.

There were no demons, no hellfire or brimstone, just a deep, complete feeling of darkness and hopelessness. This was the never-ending void. Not at all how I had imagined it, but worse than I thought that it could have been.
