Boris- Soundtrack from Film "Mabuta No Ura"


Artist: Boris
Album: Soundtrack from Film "Mabuta No Ura" (purchase)
Year Released: 2005
Country: Japan
Label: Essence
Genre(s): Drone, stoner, psychedelic

All of Boris' albums are completely different from one another, and all of them are great, so it was difficult deciding which one to post first. I picked Mabuta No Ura because it really shows their variety and creativity, and it's one of my favorites. This is the soundtrack to a non-existent film concocted by this Japanese experimental trio. This is for all music fans, and if you don't like this album, try some of their others. They have an incredibly rich discography with tons of variety.

Album: Samus Octology (purchase)
Year Released: 2005/2007

My love for instrumental music is pretty much summed up by this album- Samus Octology is chock full of epic melodies, interesting rhythms, and nonstop quality musicianship. Also, you should definitely check out their myspace page for directions on how to sync up their album to The Goonies.
