Boris
TheFuriousWombat:
Now I'm not an enormous fan of Boris but I do think they're pretty cool. They're playing a free show in the chapel here at Bard on the 27th and I'm wondering two things:
1. Should I go? and 2. What should I expect from them live?
Anyone have good/bad/ok experiences with them live or in general?
valley_parade:
Go, and I'd expect them to be god awfully LOUD.
GO!
(I think Bard is kinda near where I am? Maybe I could go if I had a ride)
Johnny C:
Get earplugs. And backup earplugs.
a pack of wolves:
When I've seen them they've not actually been all that devastatingly loud. I was pretty near the speakers and despite my aversion to excessive volume I was feeling fine.
Boris are a hard band to predict. Sometimes they'll deliver monstrous drone and feedback, at other gigs they'll be out to rock as hard as humanly possibly and sometimes they'll give you a mix of the two. It's all good though, you should definitely go. I predict a good time, the same as I do for when I see them at ATP this winter.
Oh, and if they have any vinyl for sale buy it. Then you can flog it on Ebay and fleece the fanboys, I think my Boris picture discs are worth several times what I paid for them now which is always a comfort in times of economical strife.
Phaedra:
Definitely go. Particularly as it's free!
I saw them back in May with Sunn O))) and thought it was pretty damn awesome. Their drummer is totally insane.
