The pair of recordings showcase distinctly different sides of the legendary band&#8217;s personality, while providing further proof of their trenchant significance.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<strong>Boris &#8211; Attention Please &#8211; LP\/CD\/digital<\/strong><br \/>\n<br \/>\nBoris are widely known for their ability to breach styles and stretch sonic boundaries of all that is heavy, psychedelic, droning and downright cathartic. But, Attention Please is more like a complete redefining of their potential in several ways. First and foremost, it is the first album on which all vocals are sung by lead guitarist, Wata. While she has previously sung on a couple of songs for singles and her solo outings, the entire 10-song album features her intimate, multifaceted vocal style. Secondly, the songs on Attention Please have a sultry, intoxicating catchiness to them. It&#8217;s melodic without sounding pop. It&#8217;s psychedelic without sounding dated. It&#8217;s heavy without relying on barre chord riffs.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<strong>Boris &#8211; Heavy Rocks &#8211; LP\/CD\/digital<\/strong><br \/>\n<br \/>\nBoris has earned its rabid cult following for their ability to expertly harness music as power. Be it psychedelic metal, colossal drone, blistering punk or distortion-ravaged shoegaze, a Boris song is an exploration of sound as physical mass. The Japanese trio&#8217;s classic 2002 album, Heavy Rocks is a landmark of their mastery. So, it&#8217;s fitting that the group&#8217;s new album sharing the same title and very similar artwork to that disc, Heavy Rocks (2011) seeks to redefine &#8220;heavy&#8221; music in a culmination of the band&#8217;s tireless efforts over the past two decades. This year&#8217;s Heavy Rocks is beyond heavy, it firmly establishes Boris as a pillar of innovation and integrity in guitar-based music.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nArtist: Boris<br \/>\nAlbum: Attention Please<br \/>\nLabel: Sargent House<br \/>\nRelease Date: April 26th, 2011<br \/>\n<br \/>\n01.
