Music reviews of Boris At Last - Feedbacker
Music Review: Pure Psychedelia
Rating: 5 Stars
This is Boris' most psychedelic release. It is also one of their magnum opus albums. By now, you may or may not know that Boris is a chameleon of rock and metal. And I mean that in the most honorable way. The way Led Zeppelin could play blissed out blues and then rock a punk riff, and then melt minds with rock straight from the factory floor yet still remain Led Zep, so is Boris an ever changing, musically adept trio, that scorches through whatever they wish to at the time and leaves their mark on it. Like Zorro, they are the swashbuckling heroes of rock and roll, but they wield guitars and drums instead of a skinny little sword.
So by calling Feedbacker one of their magnum opus albums, I mean to bring light to the fact that they have a few albums that play out as one long hour long song. They have albums that are more track by track oriented, such as their latest album Pink, but albums like Absolutego, Flood, Amplifier Worship, and this album Feedbacker, are musical mission statements...
I can spare youthe details if every album and tell you that A) they are all different from each other, and B) you should look them up and read the reviews that people wrote, and finally C) they are all amazing in their own way.
Feedbacker though is easily the most psychedelic of these albums. It is a 5 part ride through some of the most overwhelming feedback swells and also some of the most drugged out space rock on this, the darkest side of the moon. Yes the Floyd reference is there for a reason. This is a wonderful complete album bookended with feedback and filled with soaring gorgeous songs with a weight that belies this worlds own gravity. Melodies are buried deep in the fabric of sound that Boris has created and it takes some patience and a good sound system (or headphones) to appreciate how deep and moving this piece can be. In terms of tone, the guitars sound old, and the heaviness never reaches the peaks of Amplifier Worship or Absolutego, but it is still heavy. Heavy in terms of depth and height. They plumb the lowest of all bass depths as they always do and juxtapose the rumble with screeching feedback, all amps running far into the red threatening total destruction of your ears. Walls of sound wrap suffocatingly around you until you feel you cant breath until you are released into a bubbling ether of acid hazed psychedlic guitar solos and warbly fuzzy drones.
The album is extremely ambitious and it fulfills its purpose laid out in the title "Feedbacker". It has a third eye opening quality to it that would make Tool jealous and Sunn 0))) proud. If you dig this, then you must go and check out their other stuff, because as well as their magnum opuses, they have a few albums based more on a rock and roll, sabbath/ motorhead style, as well as some incredibly dense sound experiments and a slew of collaborations and vinyl only releases that will keep you interested for years....enjoy.
