About
<i>Dear</i> marks Japanese trio Boris’ 25th year exploring the spectrum of heavy music, from pitch-black experimentalism to high-gloss shoegaze, balancing beauty and force in a way few bands can. <i>Dear</i> tends toward the tougher end of things, mixing sepulchral whispers and slow-moving clouds of distortion (“D.O.W.N.”) with Sabbath-style churn (“Absolutego”) airbrushed with heavenly, almost dissociated vocals. Most arresting is “Memento Mori,” which evolves from sludge to air in five seamless minutes.
