New Boris LP's out!
 

Japanese trio, boris, have released two new LP's titled "the thing which solomon overlooked vol. 2 and vol. 3"! Most of the copies were taken on their 2006 European tour, but somehow Conspiarcy Records (conspiracyrecords.com) got a hold of a few hundred copies. If you're a fan, you may want to shell out the cash for these now, because getting them on ebay is going to be a hassle (they'll probably go for over $100 US a piece).

does anyone like grape nuts?

Wait, so they're only making so many copies? I'll have to get my self 2 copies...

yeah, they only made 1000 copies of each for the tour. about 300 or so of those went to the online store or something

pick up 2 of each if you can, and sell them on ebay. you could pay for a small child with the profit you'd make.

That's a really good Idea actually, thank you. I'll get myself 2 records of each, then use the money off selling one to buy a record player so I can play it, I need one anyway.

act fast! these things are going like hotcakes (the websites server crashed last night partly because of the amount of orders and emails).

it's going to sound messy, very messy...

it'll probably be on the more mellow side of things, i think. when i saw the cover, their name was in lowercase letters, which means that it'll be a softer experience than, say, "heavy rocks".

yeah, it's 28euro for both lps. not bad considering they'll be going for upwards of 50-100 USD a piece pretty soon.

what makes you say that?

i have the Heavy ROcks album....pretty cool stuff....my buddy just got a new (not necessarily new, but another boris album) i havent heard yet...i forget the name

i just wrote a review on the new Boris album 'PINK' for a magazine. I liked it, but from time to time the 'messy production' on the rock tracks put me a bit of. It does sound raw, and i like that. Put i do prefer their monumental drone tracks, just because the sound is better...

So i take it that they just like that way of production, i dunno. But thats why i said it will sound messy...

well odds are, these two new lps are gonna be very drone-y and not very heavy at all (when the name is lowercase, it's calmer. when it's capitalized, it's HEAVY). but yeah, i do get a very raunchy feel from the production on "pink", almost the same way i felt when sleater-kinney's "the woods" came out. i think it has alot to do with the way the drums sound.

vol. 2 i heard is heavy
vol. 3 is "drone-y" much like pink


btw their soundtrack album is amazing

Grape Nuts are my favorite cereal.

mabuta no ura is indeed amazing. the japanese version isn't as great as the brazilian version, though. it's just not as cohesive.

you should try putting a bit of butter and brown sugar in with the milk and cereal, then microwaving it for about 1 minute. it's dereeeeshious!
