This is my introduction to boris, are there any albums dedicated to the world of doom?



Absolutego on max volume is one of the best things ever, but its one big 60 min song which is hard to get into. Amplifier worship is a bit more song oriented and with a punk vibe. Dronevil is another epic 60 min drone fest but less minimalist than Absolutego. Dear is their most recent and its probably the closest you could get to a "normal" album arrangement. Then there is Solomon Overlooked I which is super minimalist. Pretty much all of them are God.

^that is the best answer, but (should have said) the quickest solution is to jam "Aileron" on its own asap - and then all the rest!

good review but you knew that already

Every Boris initiation should start with Pink tbh

Great rev Johnny! I still haven't heard it lol

imagine listening to music made in 2020

"Boris don’t do emotional bullshit."



What are you talking about Johnny? Did you know not listen to the opening track of LOVE/EVOL? "Away From You" Sounded pretty emotional to me. I guess what you want to say is that they don't do cliche, emotional stuff.

The piano in that song penetrates my soul

it's been a long time since I've enjoyed a first listen of an album as much as this one

might be their best album in 15 years

Is this in the same vein as 1985?

Does anybody know if/when this will be on Spotify?

Can't wait to hear this

No, most similar record is Vein 2006. This is honestly their best release in like 15 years.

"This is honestly their best release in like 15 years"

"No, most similar record is Vein 2006"

HxCxHxC -Perforation Line-



This was taken from Praparat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CFh0xIhxoY



Perforated Line. I thought it sounded familiar. Well, they basically took the beginning section of it, and made a full song out of it. Praparat is super underrated Boris. Was only released in Japan, so understandable that's not as well known in their catalog.

This came out at a super good time. Been spending the last few weeks listening to everything from Boris that I haven’t heard...not much left at this point

Every Boris initiation should start with Pink tbh

and Boris At Last -Feedbacker-.

Jamming now, good stuff as expected.

"Sounded pretty emotional to me"

"away from you" (and a bunch of other Boris tbh) aren't un-emotional, but they v rarely sound like they're presented in way that foregrounds emotional weight above all else imo (+ are the better for this)

"which version?"

lol someone didn't read the rev
