Music Tasting 22

On Friday, Japanese experimental rock band Boris will release their 27th album.



Their first album, Absolutego, came out in 1996 - it was just one hour long song.


Flood from 2000 has become a cult hit among fans, and marks a turning point in the band's sound, incorporating more progressive rock elements.  Like their first, there are no song names, but it's broken down into four parts.


"Boris have made deliberate efforts to avoid a strong association with any musical style."

This album fell under stoner rock.


They particularly do not consider themselves a heavy metal band, though they're often classified.


Members Takeshi (bass and rhythm guitar, vocals), Wata (lead guitar, keyboards, vocals), and Atsuo (drums, electronics, vocals) have been together in an unchanged lineup since joining in 1992.
