Popis - BORIS / JOE VOLK SPLI [VINYL]:
Joe was asked to support Boris at their headline show in London and by 2011 the split-release project was fully underway. Now, 5 years to the day of their first encounter, Invada are proud to present this collaboration which will be available only on a heavy vinyl pressing. Boris are well known for spanning multiple genres of music throughout their 20 year history. Supremely heavy. Always unexpected. Their presence on stage is something to be witnessed. They have been classified as space rock, outsider metal, avant rock and many more, all giving a nod to the other-worldliness of the sound they create. It seems fitting then that for this album Boris have produced Cosmos, a record in three parts that traverses a landscape of cymbal washes and fuzzed glitches in Part 1, to the relentlessly volcanic jagged grooves of Part 2, before descending underwater spirals through Part 3. This journey leads beautifully to the door of their bedfellow Joe Volk. Joe was the original singer in Gonga and Crippled Black Phoenix and released his debut solo album on Invada many moons ago. He is currently working on a new album with Emmy-nominated soundtrack composer Ben Salisbury. His two songs on this split LP, Call to Sun and Finland, are stories in technically sublime acoustics, strings and vocals, but as you would expect from an Invada artist all is not as it seems. His use of silence and hypnotic rhythms mark this out as something entirely different. This split album is a juxtaposition of styles from the same mindset. One story told two ways."
