• Boris "No" LP

RM 113.05

Third Man

Written and recorded during lockdown, the album drew inspiration from what was going on in the world at the time. In contrast to their recent work, which is dominated by long doom metal and experimental works, NO is made up of short hardcore songs. The album was met with widespread critical acclaim.
While hardly a political album, No reflects the frustration, anger, fear, and helplessness of the 2020 pandemic in a global zeitgeist. While its stylistic hallmarks are undeniably part of the band's musical signature, here they pay homage to the past while simultaneously reflecting the tense uncertainty of the present and future, directly and consistently, making No the band's strongest, most visionary outing since Pink.
-Thom Jurek, AllMusic.com, 4.5/5 stars
