These Japanese rockers have become well known for their ability to adapt to a different genre of music with every album. From the minimalist, hypnotic "Flood" to stoner rock on "Pink", Boris created absolutely fantastic records. With this release they turn to a strange combination of avant-garde and intense feedback, but churn out 30 minutes of ear-piercing guitar lines and consistently annoying vocals.
If you're looking to get into this band, start with "Pink". Stay away from this one.
If you can get past the piss poor production, which after a while has started to grow on me, There is some pretty cool Japanese crust on here. Though some of the riffs later in the album are a bit stale, there more then made up for by the sheer brutality of this record. The whole things ends with an old school boris style doom track thats about half the length of the whole album.
Now Boris just needs to stop releasing things on limited Vinyl. And give the world a chance to actually hear this stuff.
