Accolades for Pink (USA)
Pink highlights three aspects of Boris � their trippy, ambient sound, their Japanese-version-of-Motorhead garage rock, and their psychedelic drone. The predominant style is the traditional, song-structured rock. The title track and �Electric� reminded me of the last Greenmachine album � full of piss and vinegar and buzzsaw guitars. Really strong numbers. The songs that really captured my attention and left me wanting more.
Best Boris yet. Gives you a little taste of everything they do, from the shimmery Feedbacker ype stuff, to the ballsy sludge of Amplifier Worship to Heavy Rocks style stuff. Track 7 is my fave, it gets going like a runaway train.
This is another great BORIS release (capital letters 'cause it's a loud album). The shoegaze style intro takes you to a beautiful place before the second song starts and kicks you in the face. The album takes off from there with fast style Akuma No Uta tracks but with the heaviness of Heavy Rocks.
