Posted 2 months ago.This killer Japanese hard rock (or is that heavy metal) band left the audience in tatters the last time it played Austin. Some might remember the band from an amazing set during SXSW 2007. It was the Japanese band with the gong and the double-neck. Yes, those guys. With brilliantly catchy heavy rock act Torche and Clouds. more at austin360.com
Posted 2 months ago.Boris has identified the sweet spot where noise, metal, and philharmonic rock intersect. The Japanese band can be deviously clever—it’s recently taken to sampling its own records—but this is not the kind of cloistered “noise” that inevitably ends up as just, well, noise. Like few others, Boris understands how to make synths and pedals and tangles of electronic sorcerers’ material augment a sound as much as they make one. Expect sad transistors, starry-eyed transistors, guilty and angry transistors, and so on, as Boris plays behind its new Southern Lord album Smile. Opener Torche favors epic Black Sabbath-style metal and acid-blotter riffs, but bucks stoner-rock conventions on its new Meanderthal by adding poppy hooks and keeping song lengths well within the three-minute mark. Also playing: Clouds.
