Boredoms - Chocolate Synthesizer



"Boredoms is an avant-garde rock band from Osaka, Japan. The band was officially formed in 1986, although some date the band to bedroom tape experiments beginning in 1982. Their varied output is difficult to pigeonhole, but is usually referred to as noise rock or sometimes Japanoise, though their more recent records have been largely based around repetitive minimalism, ambient music and tribal drumming.

The band has a vast and sometimes confusing discography. Many band members have rotated through the group over the years, often using a number of various stage names. Singer Yamantaka Eye is the closest they have to a frontman; his style includes a range of baffling screams, babbling, electronic effects and very heavy post-production. Drummer/singer/trumpeter Yoshimi P-We has been featured on many Boredoms recordings as well."


Now onto one of my favourite bands.Crazy is the best word to describe them. I fell in love with them after hearing them in the Ichi The Killer Soundtrack.All I can say is that you should try this album espescially if you like noise rock or screamo stuff...You'll definetly enjoy it!
