does anyone know anything about this strange japanese band? i've heard that they sleep for 18 hours and fight with each other the remaining 6 hours of the day. ... heh.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
..but when do they find the time to make the music..? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I saw them at ATP, theyre a great noise band, They play drum sets at once, and have this really hyper weirdo workin the sampler like a guitar. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i meant 3 drum sets at once. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cool.. ! i'd love to see them live |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fight all the time? Are they a girl band? Speaking of Japanese bands... I'll be seing Mach Pelican tonight! :D |

that had to be the loudest thing Ive ever seen next to merzbow. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Theres only one girl, she looks really tiny but she can pound an freakin drum. She sweats like the guys too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's cool. fight sleep and make music i guess. rather interesting. |
||||||||

dolleater, the band you saw was the voordoms (replace 'oo' with infinity symbol). boredoms actually have guitars and less drums, more members (five or six total). not that they aren't related sounds. the girl on the drums is yoshimi. chambre, if you're interested in my opinion i'd tell you which release to check out. |
||||||||
|

boredoms are one of my favorite bands of all time, saw them @ ATP and experienced a natural high from their music, my brain literaly was somewhere else! i have a boredoms poster too :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
where'd you get a boredoms poster?! is it eye's artwork? boredoms are among my favorites as well. |
||||||||
|

|
|
they're on the cover of a recent issue of Wire. Its a good interview too~ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
any info on the new album? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or anything particularly interesting you'd like to relay? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
jupitah : yeah! what releases should i check out as a good 'introduction' ? and has anyone got that Wire interview transcripted/scanned? it would be nice to have. i haven't found any other interviews with the band on the net... :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ha ha, Okaaaaay. I was the Boredoms buddy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
boredoms Æ awesome, heh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

noise bands- can't actually take much of this as I'm not into shoking my system anymore. Am I telling the truth though ? ;-P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they're not a noise band at all - they're more a psychedelic trancey rock band nowdays and they've now changed their name to voredoms - they used to be more of a punk band but they've gone quite tribal drunmmimg + electronics now - i saw them live and they were incredible |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

astrid's got it right. they bagan as a fuck-all no wave punk/noise ensemble, but they've evolved. particularly important in their evolution might have been eye's trip to india that he mentioned in some interview in nme. apparently he watched a solar eclipse and was moved and all that, and from that point on the music became very psychelic and beautiful. very intense, but not noise at all. chambre noire, i couldn't tell you what a good introduction would be because the music i love them for is the most recent stuff, far different from most of their catalogue. i say get the most recent album, vision creation newsun. it's one of the most exraordinary albums ever. i've heard a bit from super are (or super ae, as it's printed some places, i don't which it is) and it sounds nice, but i need to hear more. there are some scattered live performances that are nice as well. from their i'd say check out ooioo, one of yoshimi's other bands (i believe the number of boredoms side projects are in fact infinite). if you're interested in earlier punk, noise, odd experimentation, i can't really tell you what to check out as i'm not into it, but there are some album reviews and links to other sites at www.boredoms.co.uk. |

i hearrd one of theirr albums is amazing... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i've two of the iooioo albums and one of thenm has a version of a song by kioshi isumi who was in the boredoms - the song is called effect rainbow and was on rephlex ages ago - thanks for the website link - i did'n tknow about that one |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks jupitah - i just got the "super are", "vision creation newsun" and also "chocolate synthesizer", all amazing. quite different from one another but still with the extremely bizzare musical style they have. it's extremely good. www.boredoms.co.uk seems to be out of order.. got any other good sites? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i got it from these fellows who follow the boredoms around the world, and picked it up after a boredoms concert, it was a homemade silkscreen poster probably not many in print. Its a wild poster with a nice live performance shot of eye in it. :) |
||||||||

I saw them when their name was the boredoms, whatever they did after I dont know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you saw them at the recent atp in la, they were listed as boredoms but it was actually the vooredoms. it's eye and yoshimi and possibly others from the boredoms in a similar band. but maybe you did see the boredoms and the show you went to was not the one i mentioned. were there guitars? as far as i know there are not multiple drum sets used for boredoms but the vooredoms are specifically known for consisting of three drummers and eye at the mic and synths and tape manipulators (or whatever, i know little about electronic equipment). so how was the show anyway? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
isaw em in London 3 drummers an eye on electronis andv ocals - they've changed their name to voredoms for the moment |

i just heard a track of Rebored vol.0, and it is great!! but why is the CD twice the price of any normal one, everywhere except on amazon.co.uk?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you can find a long sample of the album, the track is called 777 : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why havent they made a new album since visioncreationnewsun? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uzim, it is my opion that the rebore is infinitely less incredible than vision creation newsun. in other words, get VCN! now! GOD I CAN'T CONTAIN MYSELF! i really love vision creation newsun. |

there was rumor that the full voordoms album has been long complete but is not being released by the label or some such disgusting complcations. also rumored to be another ooioo album waiting to be unleashed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nice :), hope it comes out remotely soon |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

rumor was january 2003... makes me wonder how far off the rumor is from reality :( |

I saw the voredoms last summer at Fuji Rock Festival - three drummers and lunatic waving a sampler. It was the most boring thing all weekend - enlessly repetitive drumming and same sample over and over and over while the lunatic guy waved the sampler in the air for dramatic effect. Utterly tedious. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i saw some video footage of the vooredoms at fuji rock fest and it was pretty ecstatic... maybe you don't like to dance? one man's cake is another man's stool. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
saw em live in the qeh - pretty incredible i thought |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ive decided to answer after 5 moths of consideration. ;) They were superb. Their shear intensity and wild stage antics are reason enough to see them. The music was great of course. 3rd best act at atp next to the merz and the twin. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i envy you both :D i must see them live before i die. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
just thought i'd share, in case of... (it seems legal) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i saw the boredmz live a few years back n they rocked, if you get into stuff like that u should check out, juke 19, ooio.... yeah they put on an amazing show. |

MACH PELICAN ARE AWESOME!!!! Props, Princo! I love their song titles |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
