Cloud Chamber.

Side note: Does anyone have the live Smile album? I've always wanted to check it out but the import price was hella prohibitive.

YAR. I have a digital copy. Nothing special, just the songs from the albums, but with shittier sound and excessive arena reverb.

On the subject of Flood: I asked Boris a while back if I could release Flood on a double vinyl, because I thought that would be a pretty good way to get the label going. Anyway, I think it was their manager who said that the original recording of flood will probably never come out on ANY other physical media, because of the iron clad contract with the CD company in Japan. I've also heard from a few sources that Japanese record industry is even more monopolized than the states. It boils down to like 2 companies, and then a few actual indies.

HOwever, you might have better luck with "Boris Plays Flood" a half hour-ish live performance from last year in Tokyo. They were selling the CD on tour this year. Not sure if it's getting distribution or what...
*edit* just checked itunes. Not on there, but that means almost nothing with Boris.


But it's probably better to see them. So you can see them turn on their Shiva, Eau Claire Thunder, and Pitch Grinder.

Wow, pretty hard to choose just one.
If I had to, I'd probably go Heavy Rocks (the orange one, duh.)
Amplifier Worship CHANGED MY LIFE, though, and both Flood and Droneevil (Disc 2) still slay me on a regular basis...

Cloud Chamber.

Really? (I've never listened to it)

[benjuro]

And DAMN, I listened to Feedbacker on the way to work today...DAMN I had forgotten how great that is as well!!!

First Boris album I ever bought was Amplifier Worship. I remember blasting it in my mom's car since she had a decent stereo system. Forever changed me

Oh yeah dude. It's probably my favorite non-riffy record of theirs.

Well worth checking out.

That live album where they play Feedbacker with Merzbow is pretty awesome.

I've got it on fancy orange marble vinyl. SSO GOOD.

Do any of y'all have the thing which Solomon overlooked? I've only listened to the first two disks so far.

I think one of my favorites after Amp Worship is the hardcore version of VEIN. Completely out of character for them but it sounds so damn good. A friend of mine traded me his copy a while ago and damn if it isn't one of the most attractive records either

[UncleBBQ]

The hardcore version of Vein is wild. Almost has a Converge kinda feel to it.
