5 out of 5 stars Boris ? Pink ? Metal........2006-06-21

Wow. Just wow. Buy this CD if youre a fan of rock 'n roll played right, nothing else needs to be said.

5 out of 5 stars Exactly what i was looking for.......2006-03-08

I just ran out to Other Music to get this on my lunch break, and I was excited right off the bat. The packaging is very cool. Its hot pink, with see through pink vellum for the cover, wrapped around a sheet of acid, with one tab missing...haha! Thats all before I even got back to listen to it...

After listening to this, I am completely blown off my rocker...I was listening to alot of Mogwai lately, and enjoying their new song, "Glasgow Mega-Snake" and their old great "My Father My King" and wondering why they didnt do more of that bombast sorta thing...and I kept thinking of this Boris record. I have Flood, which is great by its own measure (waaaay more ambient now that I have something to compare it to), but I heard this one was balls to the wall. So, upon putting it in, I am treated to a wash of sound, ala My Bloody Valentine meets Mogwai, and I am happy so far, but still looking for the crunch...next song, title track "Pink", practically blew me out of my freaking seat!! From there the album is just pure a crushing locomotive of fuzzed out sludgy black sabbath punk metal...it is grueling, and tight, and the riffs are sky high....but wait, it does the pretty pyschedelic Mogwai/ My Bloody Valentine thing pretty well too. and best of all, the record is seemless, flowing from one texture to the next....I am very happy I bought this, and am almost ready to go out and buy Akuma No Uta which Ive heard is awesome as well. But this record is a complete package of extrememly well done, high adrenaline rock and roll sludge...You will not be dissapointed...
