Boris

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Japanese cult favorite sludge/doom rock trio Boris takes their name from a song on grunge godfathers the Melvins' Bullhead album. They also have a lot in common with the Melvins musically, including a fondness for heavily down-tuned guitar/bass tones and exceedingly slow tempos. But they also incorporate elements variously drawn from other sources, including psychedelic rock, punk, noise, minimalism, pure sludge-drone music à la Earth, and more. Also, despite the unpretentious psychedelic/stoner rock imagery that accompanies much of...[more]

 

 

RECOMMENDED! Boris continues its remarkable evolution from primordial doomsayers to psych-metal alchemists with Pink, an extraordinarily visceral record that epitomizes the art and allure of utter chaos. In some respects, it's the trio's most structured record, complete with more conventional song lengths and taut, direct melodies -- in other respects it's their most challenging and complex, building layer upon layer of elemental noise to achieve an almost fearsome power that both requires and reward   [ read more ]

The Altar album is not a split album. Altar is a collaboration album between Sunn 0))) and Boris that is a result of both bands conceptualizing, writing and recording the album together as one entity. Both groups have stepped outside their previous sounds and created a wholly unique album that stands on its own unique ground. There are elements of each groups trademark sound within the album but true to each groups progressive and experimental aspects, Altar moves into a completely new    [ read more ]

With their second full-length album, Boris takes their sludgy, Melvins-influenced doom rock style and gives it a heavy psychedelic slant. The album is divided into five tracks, but like their other albums, Absolutego and Flood, it plays out like one extended piece and is meant to be listened to straight through in one sitting. It starts out with a slow, ugly doom riff that repeats for several minutes before heading into a stretched-out, psychedelic jam section on the lengthy second trac   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Eclectic Japanese power trio Boris return with another limited offering! This time round it's a live, psychedelic, mind expanding collaboration with the legendary Japanese master of abrasion: Merzbow! The two entities are no stranger to collaborative releases and their symmetrical chemistry burns a brightly shining path on this special release. What makes the Boris w/ Merzbow collaboration particularly interesting is that both Boris and Merzbow seem to leave behind the expected to fully embrac   [ read more ]

Available for the first time outside their home of Japan, this 39-minute, six song album contains elements contained on all their previous efforts. Its all here: the heavy rumble, exquisite beauty, and sheer kick-out-the-jam-ness. Cover art cleverly spoofs Nike Drake's Bryter Layter. Packed in a digipak designed by SoMa.

Soundtrack from Film Mabuta No Ura (translated as 'Backside Of The Eyelids') presents Boris at their most abstract personality. A stunning guitar-driven psychedelic voyage to an imaginary land where Pink Floyd's 'More' meditates with Sunn 0))) drenched in ambience and feedback! Being a flowing and brooding soundtrack to an imaginary film conceived by the three band members, the album manages to present the listener to a number of moods and soundscapes without actually breaking out of its shell.

"A single 43-minute composition / symphony (broken into five tracks for easier access) from Japan's drone druids that goes from etheral to crushingly heavy and everything between. Stark in contrasts and attention to texture." Feedbacker begins at the core, with ambient waves of Earth-like drones rippling across an otherwise silent nine minute expanse before Atsuo spills into his cymbals, commencing a funereal march. Bassist/vocalist Takeshi drawls up and down his double-necked bass while Wata (the fe   [ read more ]
