this is not as bad as i thought it would be. it's actually good 2bh
If I'd listened to every album I thought had an interesting cover I'd have a very diverse library of shit.

I feel like the problem that the Boris fanbase has with the shoegaze/J-Pop albums like New Album and Attention Please is that they're measuring the albums in comparison to their obvious masterpieces like Pink, Akuma no Uta, Flood, etc. when they really are decent standalone J-Pop albums.

Also shoegazing is a terrible genre and dropping the ing doesn't make it any less so.
>>72075300
Well, not necessarily. Boris just didn't nail the genre very well, considering how long they'd been doing a genre that I would consider the complete antagonist to dream pop.
>>72075328
I listened to Loveless. It isn't a good genre. There wasn't much Boris could do.
>>72075328
Shoegaze outside of MBV is pretty shit my man
>>72075300
this shit is more dream pop than shoegaze
>>72075367
Exactly. By "not necessarily", I meant there are some good examples, mostly Morphine and MBV
I loved it para ser honesto familia.
Hope, Flare, Black Original and Looprider are fucking fantastic
>>72075422
those are the ones i'm not that into pham
i prefer the slower tunes
i never actually listened to that one. i did like purple heavy rocks, which i think was somewhat unfairly underrated because they made the stupid decision of naming it after their best album (yea you heard me)
from what i've heard of boris since pink it does feel like they're in a bit of a creative slump. but then they did produce like 7 or 8 solid gold albums in their prime spanning a bunch of genres. amp worship -> pink is one of the best runs of any discography ever
plus if creative stagnation means we get all these nostalgia tours like the Pink one last year (and I think they're doing Heavy Rocks this year at some festivals) then i'm all for it
>>72075465
>not including Absolutego -> Pink as the run
>thinking Heavy Rocks is the best Boris album
otherwise, good opinion anon
>>72075451
Pardon is bretty gud, I'll give you that.
I just love Flare and Looprider's poppy chorus, and Black Original is deliciously loud and noisy.
>>72075501
ya Absolutego is good, but it's Amp Worship where they became god tier imo
orange HR is simply the greatest hard rock album ever made, it seems silly to even compare it to something like Flood which really I like just as much in different ways. but if I go solely on how much i've played them over the years then HR wins hands down
>Boris will never do the flood tour again with flood played on one set and another set of unreleased experimental shit
>>72075585
t-there's still hope anon...
>>72075879
Yeah in death.
>>72075300
>>72075344
>>72075367
trash onions
It's their second best album just short of Heavy Rocks.
>>72075242
and how is that a bad thing
