Finally got this in, our favorite album to date from everyone's favorite Japanese drone/psych/sludge/post/rock trio, Boris! This is the

European version of Feedbacker, released by Belgium's Conspiracy Records, and in the same cool gauzy translucent packaging that the original version

on DIW Phalanx.

Feedbacker is a single 43 minute composition broken into five movements that weave through ethereal drones and noise, flowing into haunting

psychedelia, then finally exploding in a crescendo of crushing riffs and Wata's planet-smashing acid leads. Absolutely breathtaking. The albums opening of

incandescent flares of Earth-style amplifier drone rumble appearing across a nearly ten-minute expanse of silence eventually surges into

funereal paced psychedelia that stretches for ages, spare drumming and reverb overload and shimmering, gauzy, swirling guitars, totally majestic shoegazer

drift and feedback filligree with singer/bassist Takeshi's sadly keening vocals entering alongside increasingly dubbed out drums just before a titanic sludge

riff rises into the clouds and the band sinks into MONSTROUS fuzzbomb rock..and all throughout, Wata's guitar launches into ripping, amazing distorted leads

and full on feedback obliteration, channeling Hendrix via acid doom heaviness...all of this finally begins to disintegrate gradually into feedback and noise

and amp hum and sludgy distortion and stately drumming that melst together by the albums end into a gorgeous swirl of cosmic hum. Boris At Last -

Feedbacker is absolutely amazing, equal parts melancholy epic slowcore/post-rock, blazing stoner sludge, trippy indie rock, Japanese psychedelia,

Earth/Sunn O))) style drones. EXTREMELY recommended !!!!
