Only cats from Japan could present drone metal in its ultimate rock-influenced psychedelic form, including vocal contributions harshly steeped in doom. Amplifier Worship, the second album by Boris, uses a segmented approach to refine the essentials of their first into five pieces, each with the effect of a black mass on acid. Amplifier Worship is the alchemical amalgam of all strains of heavy music, taken to its cumulative and care-free extreme.
