Free Music Review: Psych-Ambient B-O-R-E
Hit: 4 Stars
This album is vastly different from the Boredoms' psychotic soundgasm that was Pop Tatari. This album explores a side of the Boredoms' sound that I feel was present but not always apparent. To begin, I will point out the similarities between The Boredoms' previous line of work, and then the differences. This album has some small parts in it that sounds like old B-O-R-E that are jumpy and fast paced but these sounds are much less present on this album. Also, a notable similarity is the use of electronic effects in the music, which is something the Boredoms have used since their early days. On this album, however, the electronic effects are even more apparent and are generally used for ambience, with the occasional record skip,noise, or tape manipulation thrown in for good measure. This album is also notably different because of the influences present on this album. Listening to older Boredoms albums its apparent that there is an influence from psychedelic music,tribal music, and classic rock but those influences took a back seat to noise,punk, and musique concrete influences. On this album the influences appear to be placed in a different order of importance. The psychedelic, tribal music, classic rock, and musique concrete have come to the foreground and take up most of this album, with some of the good noisiness thrown in occasionally. Listening to this album combines the sounds of Gong, Neu!, Can, and, to a lesser extent, Mr. Dorgon and Tangerine Dream to create something that is very psychedelic without losing the Boredoms sound. This album is definitely worth checking out if you are a fan of the band's early line of work but have a fondness for psychedelia, ambient music, and minimalism. This album gets 4 stars instead of five because sometimes it gets a little too repetitive but if you're in the right mood this album is perfect and amazing.
Super Are Poster
2000 reissue of 1998's release from one of the leaders of Japan's wave of noise bands. Very rhythmic and spacey. 2001 release.The Boredoms are a notorious Japanese rock group with an over-the-top, in-your-face artistic approach that is both ferocious and awe-inspiring. On its 10th full-length album, the Osaka-based ensemble exudes a sonic collage of trance-inducing drones, power-chord riffs, and enthusiastic jamming. While hyperkinetic frontman Yamatska Eye leads the Boredoms through seven extremely long compositions, this disc is rarely boring. On the opening song, "Super You," they embrace traditional rock structures with galloping drums and reverberating guitars that eventually melt into tribal-like chants and surreal studio effects. By combining their high-energy approach with sophisticated recording techniques, the Boredoms create a psychedelic milieu that celebrates unorthodox musicianship, instrumental excess, and raw energy. This is aggressive, contemporary rock music without the pretentious trappings of heavy metal or punk. --Mitch Meyers
