Boris - LφVE & EVφL - 2XLP

Continuing to tinker and toil with their sound since the 2017 release of DEAR, Boris have pivoted onward a more organic, non-grid literary style that LφVE & EVφL showcases.In turns dynamic, drone, stoney, dreamy and beautiful, these albums contain multitudes. 

Album opener, Away From You, builds and compounds like a slowcore daydream fantasy, with the bassline gently mooring the song's buoyancy and employing high octave oscillating feedback as a quaternary bandmate. From there, we descend in a tremoring blaze into Coma and make first encounter with the pacific, jarring hysteria of EVOL. Both Uzume and LOVE play into one another, both full-volume immersive jams to blow your speakers and your mind. In The Pain(t), a carved out respite, washes like the sea into a pier. 

And at long last, Shadow Of Skull is a figmental 11 minute, 27 second whizzing, fuzzfest, providing a very gratifying ending to the double album journey . As heard here, Boris continues to propel their sonic palette into new mind-shreddy directions.
