@ Matthew Ooley I'm an old guy, so I was lucky enough to see them in Cleveland's Flats at the Euclid Tavern (May 31, 1993) with Pain Teens and Brutal Truth. Never heard of them before then (I was there to see Pain Teens). Talk about a "WOW!" moment.... ;)

[@milttrugood4817]

@@DrNothing23 Awesome Jeff. I caught the same tour, where they played at Vancouver's Club Soda. Two drummers, too much Grateful Dead acid, one of our crew almost getting kicked out, but then ending up switching tees with Yamatuska JUST before he went onstage. Hilarious, seeing Hugh with a different shirt on, and pointing up at Eye, wearing Hugh's "Soul Discharge" shirt. Sure, in my top five gigs.

Never realized until just now (feel kinda slow!) that Mike Patton's trademark hardcore/growling/screaming/vocalizing mic technique came almost directly from Yamantaka Eye. I mean, I played the hell out of John Zorn's Naked City disc, 20+ years ago; and knew that Patton had worked extensively w/Zorn. But somehow it never occurred to me LOL

[@Whitewolf-fq7jd]

[@GazmoSin1960s]

+tohu777 They both sound like Taz from Looney Tunes on acid. But yeah, it's always been pretty obvious to me that Patton loved Eye's vocal style and "sort of" took it (he's mostly used it with Fantomas). It's all good though.

[@motherfinestudios]

'Adult Themes for Voice' is directly inspired by Hanatarash's 'AIDS-a-Delic.'

[@karlokeeffe9941]

You're not wrong, but there's some Bad Brains in there too

[@leftiequixote]

The artwork at 8:16 is from Beck's 'Midnite Vultures' album and is by Boredoms frontman Yamataka Eye.

[@PKSkyler]

You are 100% right! Thats another good album with awesome artwork

[@devonfisher1515]

Actually not entirely true - that's from the 1998 "Shock City Shockers" compilation (which various Eye and Boredoms side-projects featured on). Eye modified his original image - making the jacket's text read "BECK" for one - for the Beck album, which came out a year later.

[@westcoastdgtluv]

You're doing lord's work by uploading these bands PK, THank YOu SM!!

@@PKSkyler there's are bands only real ones know, you the king with these uploads 🙏🏽

[@PeterTierney]

Seeing them in some dank NYC club back in the 90s changed my perspective. I'm better for it, for sure. I don't listen to them often anymore, but they're so good every time I do.

[@PKSkyler]

Never got to see em live myself (bit too young) but super influential band for me as well. Listened to them all the time ages like 20-22, never a bad time coming back.

[@cotmvocalist]

I love this album. Shock city always gets me a little teary eyed.

[@TreeLibrary]

Wow. What an incredible song.

[@bon-e-pa]

god that last bit of acid police gets me fucking hyped

[@PKSkyler]

themadcaplaugh Hell yeah! From 4:02 onward right?

[@bon-e-pa]

yeah man !! imagine seeing that live

[@PKSkyler]

themadcaplaugh That would be so dope. Theres some good footage on youtube of these guys live. The lead singer Eye used to get real crazy. There was even one show he did in the band before Boredoms where he drove a bulldozer through the venue and trashed the place, even throwing lit molotovs. I think there was one where he wore a spinning powersaw on his back the whole time and cut his leg and coulda totally killed himself, and another time where he killed a cat on stage too I believe....

[@tohu777]

PKSkyler Yeah, Google "Hanatarash" - there are some performance videos on KZbin...

[@bon-e-pa]

PKSkyler i think he skinned a dead cat or something ? and yeah he was crazy

[@KlausVonMork]

Saw this a few years ago at ATP Butlins. 20 guitarists and 5 drummers. Awesome !

[@running4kabob]

I may be in the min-bore-ity, but Chocolate Synth is my favorite Bore-'bum, pre kraut-y, trance-y, psych-y Super Newsun non-sun-ce (which is off the nozzle, in its own right). I bought this in a used bin at a CD alley in bum-fluff upstate NY and just googly-eyed my way thru the whole thing, repeat repeat repeatrepete.... classic 'bum.

[@darrenmonsiegneur5310]

Tomato Synth is the only song that accurately encapsulates the interior of my head whilst love making or trying to thread a needle with wool.

[@hvacjay4037]

Saw the BOREDOMS in 1993 and it changed my life forever.

[@Cananalope]

LOVE this album... I like Pop Tatari better personally... they were supposed to press vinyl editions of both albums for both albums, neither ever put to wax.. obviously it fell thru. I even pre-ordered mine too.. I'd kill for a (bootleg even) copy of 1992's masterpiece, Pop Tatari, on vinyl.

[@PKSkyler]

Yeah I agree, pop tatari is my favorite Boredoms album, I decided to upload this one and Onanie Bomb because no one else had yet. Geez, that really bites they never made it on other formats. I'd also love to hear that album on vinyl.

[@Juan-wo7zu]

Later this month will be the 30th anniversary of this albums release. It would be cool if they were to reissue it on vinyl.

[@RickVaughn]

[@PKSkyler]

+Rick Vaughn Most Noise rock shows have some lame audiences, I have no idea why.

[@RickVaughn]

+PKSkyler this was the middle of the afternoon, and there were known bands like Luscious Jackson, L7, Verve Pipe, etc. playing on the side stages. The main stands were practically empty except a few shirtless jocks wearing visors and holding fluorescent beer cups.

Haha thats something I'd wanna see. I've never been to a noise rock show in the middle of the afternoon lol, only at night when they get better but not amazing as I've seen in some videos.

[@PKSkyler]

Thanks for checking it out. My favorites are "Onanie bomb" and "pop Tatari" but I have a lot of physical Boredoms CDs so I uploaded this one as it wasn't up yet

[@JasonPizzolato]

Hell yeah, I've had "Chocolate Synthesizer" coped on a cassette tape for many years. I used to have about 8 or 9 Boredoms CDs, too, but they were destroyed in Hurricane Katrina. I had two of those Rebore discs, also - the ones where DJs remix Boredoms. I had the Unkle one & the DJ Krush one. They're killer! My friend Brian Patton (guitarist for Eyehategod & Soilent Green) turned me onto Boredoms in the early '90s. Still one of my favorite bands to this day!

[@PKSkyler]

That's quite a collection, sorry to hear you've lost it. I woulda really liked to own that DJ krush one as i also like the album zen. It surprises me and impresses me how much Boredoms has reached and influenced people to this day- I saw Xiu Xiu live just a bit ago and I talked with Jamie a bit after the show and when I mentioned that I could see some Boredoms influences he told me they both listened to and loved Boredoms. As eclectic as the band is, the raw energy and noise and even crazy emotion with their playing makes them just idk, one of a kind lol.

[@Juan-wo7zu]

I wish boredoms would reunite! I would totally see them live
