09.24.21 | Had to scour the ends of the internet for that one; no US Blu-Ray existed and I couldn’t find another suitable Region A substitute for the longest time. I forget which region I ended up purchasing when it was finally available for under $50…but it was totally worth it.
I heard they were coming out with a 4K re-release for US markets but never followed up on that. Thanks for the reminder. |

09.24.21 | 1. Boris (not too familiar with both artists, but this time i decided to take this contest semi-seriously and sampled a few tracks from both. All sounded cool, but i heard a little more versatility in boris)
2. David Bowie |
nightbringer
09.24.21 | "The only post metal band u need is Rosetta why aren't they in the final 4"
Oof, hard disagree. Rosetta are basically the worst of the all the big post metal bands. |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.24.21 | probably accurate depending on how big you classify that pool. maybe they're better than amenra idk
also @Pang Isis are tbh relatively versatile by post metal standards (but practically monochrome compared to the whole Boris discog) |

Demon of the Fall
09.27.21 | 'Demon this is the worst thing you've ever said'
Wow, considering the competition that's a potentially controversial take there Jester. |
nightbringer
09.27.21 | I don't really care for Boris either. |
Demon of the Fall
09.27.21 | I've admittedly heard 2.5 Boris albums and they have precisely 10x that, probably... yet nothing really makes me want to delve deeper. I'll revisit in due course, maybe. |
nightbringer
09.27.21 | Same here. |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.27.21 | Boris discog is a gift that keeps on giving, all the best parts of lower bpm metal without any of the clunk |
nightbringer
09.27.21 | Suppose all you knew about someone was that they like Isis. Which Boris albums would you recommend? |
Demon of the Fall
09.27.21 | I love post-metal (as you know) and have been recently getting more into Jesu/The Angelic Process/have been known to appreciate some Thou from time-to-time. I can deal with some slow and heavy.
Pink and Feedbacker are the Boris albums I've spent some time with. Also heard Flood but don't remember much. |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.27.21 | Oh fuck ugh I hate this question
Flood was a rly slow grower for me, but start there bc it's pretty and pairs their accessible and inaccessible sides together q well, then do og Heavy Rocks and then one of Pink or Feedbacker ig.
Feedbacker is probably their most Isis-esque album (2nd and 3rd movements are the peak of that sound in general, soz Aaron), but you'll want a run-up to that shi |
nightbringer
09.27.21 | Too late Johnny, I've already clicked play on Pink. Heard it years ago of course, but I may be better placed to appreciate it these days. Will check Flood next. |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.27.21 | Which version are you listening to (Pink is one of those where you've gotta jam the vinyl ver with extended tracks and alternative sequencing or go home) |
nightbringer
09.27.21 | I don't even have a vinyl player, soooo.... |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.27.21 | the internet is your friend |
nightbringer
09.27.21 | Right, yeah, once I took a moment to think I realised you probably didn't mean that I needed to play the actual vinyl. |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.27.21 | oh jfc hahaha no i'm not that much of a snob |
Demon of the Fall
09.27.21 | It is a great way of defending your favourites. No man, you NEED to play the limited edition vinyl, hanging upside-down whilst edging reaaaaaalllly slowly in a dark Ukrainian basement. |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.27.21 | if you ever so much as suggest another user jams a remaster from this point onwards i'm gonna comment nuke your arse so hard you continuously shit bloody mondays from here til your mid 50s |
