Pink is the new black (sabbath)


Found this track months ago over at Everything Is Fire, an excellent outpost for the heavy, warped and weird (head over there and trawl the archives, they have lots of good stuff, including a bunch more Boris). Within the first 10 seconds -- as soon as that sucked-backwards-through-a-black-hole vocal comes on, to be exact -- I was thinking about plunking down $$ for the import of Pink, the Japanese metal band's latest album, but never got around to it. Now I see (in the New York Times no less) that it's getting a U.S. release on Southern Lord in March. Yay for domestic pricing! Yay for my indecision!

Boris - "Track 8"

Errata: The track name is in Japanese. The Times story disappeared into the archives. Sorry.
