Boris
Japanese three-piece who have put out something like thirty albums across every possible adjacent genre — drone, sludge, stoner, noise, pop, ambient — without ever sounding like they're slumming. Takeshi, Wata, and Atsuo are basically the noise rock equivalent of a jazz ensemble: a shared vocabulary deep enough to take anywhere. Amplifier Worship, Akuma no Uta, Pink, and Smile are the canonical entry points.
People
Boris's bass-and-guitar doubleneck guy. Plays a custom hybrid instrument that's basically a bass and a guitar welded together. Shares vocal duties. One third of a band that's released more albums than is strictly reasonable.
Boris's guitarist. A very specific tone — clean and singing, then gigantic and buried under effects — that's unmistakably Wata. Essential to basically every Boris record regardless of what genre the album has decided to be.
Boris's drummer, band manager, designer, and occasional vocalist. The organizational force behind a band that puts out multiple albums a year on multiple labels simultaneously without anybody else seeming to track it.
