"Super æ" by Boredoms (1998)
CLASSIC ALBUM OF THE WEEK
Boredoms  "Super æ"  1998 (Japan)
Boredoms began as an art-punk-noise band in the late 1980's.  By the end of the 20th century, their music took on a more kosmische bent:  multiple drummers grooving away polyrhythmically beneath galactic guitars and synths, with chanting and chopping (editing) by their irrepressible leader Yamantaka Eye.  (But still a little bit of punky fun on this album, which was the beginning of their transition from noise to ritual music.)  Also in the group:  Yoshimi P-We, Boredoms main drummer as well as leader of her own group OOIOO and occasionally a member of underground art rock supergroup Free Kitten (as well as the inspiration for the title of the Flaming Lips album Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots).
