BORIS "My Neighbor Satan" (Official)

[@jacob7207]

I met Boris in Philly after their show and asked them if they wanted to have Sushi with my friend and I, they were very polite. They looked at each other and were like "hmm, could do," but they were on a tight schedule and said "some other time." Fucking love this band.

[@InfiniteRhombus]

they walk around the towns they play in quite often, it happened in lawrence, I ran into wata but I didn't realize what was going on because I was incredibly tired, she was walking with someone else (idk who it was, it was some other lady, tour manager maybe?) anyways after the show they signed autographs and I turned up and she recognized me from earlier, atsuo is cool as shit and loves hanging out with people so it seemed legitimate that they might have actually wanted to hang out but really couldn't. Wata smiled at me and it was bizarre

[@FATMANIPPO]

Im going to see Boris and melvins tonight! I've been jamming since 2007 but this is my first time seeing Borisu live. Tonari no satan is my all time favorite song and i love the Japanese and US versions of SMILE but im so spoiled i get to see HEAVY ROCKS 2002 full tonight. ORE NO SUBETE WO KOROSUUUUUUUUU

[@pdesjard8]

I really enjoyed watching you guys open for NIN on Tuesday. Very intense and pationate solos, I like your sound.

[@preheatedmusic3179]

I know it’s been 13 years but I also saw them on that tour in Columbus!

[@mattisprettycool]

this song is so incredible. That climactic part (i guess you could call it) never fails to give me goosebumps.

[@SardonischerDean]

One of my favourite songs from the first moment I heard it.

[@aaronvargas6004]

So happy I’m finally gonna be seeing these guys in New York this October. Was worried they wouldn’t tour the U.S. again. Them + Starcrawler is gonna be an awesome night.

[@rockforlight716]

Why wouldn’t they tour the us again? They’ve literally toured the US on every release they’ve put out

[@SomeShows]

I can't stop watching this video. I watch it every day a couple times. It's so awesome.

[@honeyshot905]

There is a beer called boris, and my landlord is called boris. All I have to do is be drinking said beer when listening to above music when aforementioned landlord comes a calling and the trifecta will be completed. Now perhaps if I was watching Rocky and Bullwinkle, with Boris Badinoff at the same time...whoa...

[@giddycadet]

god this song is monstrous

[@GNARMYroly]

i love this song. starting to get into this band a lot.

[@penny603]

i totally thought the lead part was a keyboard till i saw them play it live and its guitar!! great sound

[@noiselessfox7618]

I know this comment comes twelve years late - but i wanted you to know that this guitar wata is playing is a Casio DG20 Digital Guitar and this pretty much is a Casio-Keyboard that is shaped as a guitar with "fake strings" operating the Keyboardy sound of the device. So this is why it sounds so much like a Keyboard.

[@ProfaneZugzwang]

@ NukeMTV: Firstly, this song is NOT sludge or drone. The thing you have to realize w/ Boris is that you never know what you're gonna get. They change genres all the time and are really experimental. Sometimes they do drone, sometimes they do psychedelic rock, sometimes they do hardcore punk, etc. They never stay in one style, the combine styles and even then they never stick to the boundaries of styles. So I'm sure you'd like something by them. Just gotta listen to some more of their material.

[@Flea817]

This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

[@ManateeMentality]

This song is awesome. What a trip.

[@enderletters2u]

this song is so awesome live!

[@violetninja]

They were in my city...just days ago...I missed them. So bummed out right now.

[@MrMedusaLvamp]

BRAVO! BRAVO!....Soooo soooo delicious and fresh!!!...Im writing the check now!!!...I want more!...This could be better than drugs!....I think it has a very good chance!

[@Kain_R_Heinlein]

Yes they are... they cover many genres of music.

[@WhiteMaster6751]

Psychedelic rock, Noise rock, Stoner rock, Drone music, Hard rock, Experimental rock, Neo-psychedelia

[@Toxxi]

The video is fucking incredible, what are you kids on about! I do worry about Takeshi's posture after lugging around those double necks... Gotta say it however, as for the music? I'm only in it for the first two (stunning) minutes, after that I think I have to join Hernand with a spliff or fifteen.

[@tropicanacoughsyrup]

I love this band

[@kdonsky6]

boris goes hard

[@KriztofferSwank]

@HailChaos Hey, now... I'm a Christian and live a pretty positive lifestyle. ;) But I also rock out to Boris and loads of other metal bands. Great tunes. Love this song and the very low-key/minimal video.

[@vacuumnoise]

best Boris track Ive heard...

[@Kain_R_Heinlein]

ok!! thanks!!! now I know what to check out from them...

[@NotSoFinalProductions]

this was...beautiful live...

[@Armarantian]

Haha, wow. I love it. It's like listening to MBV's Loveless all over again.

[@Ersanven]

I love this song.

[@GreetTheSacredCow]

I feel like this band perfectly embodied trolling before it was a thing. I fucking love Boris. Magnificent, unapologetic badasses.

[@InfiniteRhombus]

yeah because people making different types of music that isn't mainstream automatically is trolling, primus sucks btw.

[@WireMan7620]

I feel like this is supposed to be a parody of My Neighbor Totoro.

[@johnryan509]

It also feels like a My Bloody Valentine homage, which is no bad thing.

[@Diamonddogusa]

***** This sounds to me a great deal like Smashing Pumpkins, which is also no bad thing:)

[@InfiniteRhombus]

smashing pumpkins are terrible

[@Diamonddogusa]

Thank you for sharing

[@germanui]

@@InfiniteRhombus totally disagree. You just think that because most of the singles were quite tiresome. Their more obscure material is quite rad. Pisces Iscariot is the record that has aged better.

[@theefishlippedone]

what a superb song.

[@atDEAD]

wow. I love BORIS but actually I dont like Smile album or that kind of recent albums. but this MV. just tears in my eyes. BORIS ROCKS

[@giddycadet]

yeah u need to get on the japanese version of smile, the mixing is so much better for their sound it's unbelievable. this audio is from the japanese album

[@OrpheusIsThe1]

@Geisttanzer Actually it can be called either fuzz OR distortion. They are the same thing. Boss have a distortion pedal which I use on my bass. They are sometimes called fuzz boxes as well. Now if you are talking about overdrive then that is a different matter because it does just more than distorts.

[@burner111]

Is Wata playing a casio DG-20?

[@darkhavenofdoom1961]

Yes.... I have so many questions

[@taikogroove]

@Ice7String what about funeral doom metal. Do you think they influenced these bands of today?

[@nilefly]

38 people were rendered brain dead by the power of this music and accidentally clicked the wrong button.

[@miique]

@OrpheusIsThe1 They are different things. There's some confusion between overdrive, distortion and fuzz because many manufacturers will just name their pedals with whatever name they think will sell . To put it simple: A distortion pedal achieves the effect by either overdriving an op amp, or using clipping diodes across the signal path. A fuzz circuit typically cascades a couple of transistors, resulting in an extremely high gain circuit.

[@miique]

@OrpheusIsThe1 The difference is the clipping, a fuzz has a much harsher clipping than distortion, turning the signal in something more similar to a squarewave. Just because they work similarly they're not the same, just like reverb and delay aren't the same thing.

[@HankFries]

Boris I think you are a great band. Uncompromising and unique. Pay no attention to the Debbie Gibson fans who comment here and display their mainstream tastes. Continue touring the world and ripping preconceptions to shreds with conviction and complete abandon.

[@motherbrain86]

@Ice7String you are correct, wonderful post

[@SLaKaTTaKK]

Have you heard the Japanese version of Smile? The mix is very different (it has a guest producer). It's almost another album. I like the US version the best, but many people I know prefer the Japanese version.

[@OrpheusIsThe1]

@Geisttanzer OK cool, I see your point about the difference between Fuzz and Distortion but I can't see how anyone can get delay and reverb confused as they are two totally different FX

[@ctdjazz]

Saw them do it last night... I think my heart exploded.

[@flateboo]

Awesome music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@cyclotrode13x]

freakin awesome!

[@OrpheusIsThe1]

@Juggernaut48 Yes the main lead guitarist is female BUT he also plays guitar. The twin neck he plays is a bass on the top and a lead on the bottom. He had it specially made so he didn't keep having to swap guitars to play bass or lead/rhythm.

[@Darrylizer1]

Lets fighting love!

[@themodernguitarist]

No, he's right, its a double-neck Steinberger Guitar/Bass. Just did a google search, and it looked exactly like that. Notice there's no headstock and it isn't shaped like an SG.

[@PooKilla]

i completely agree; aside from the "they are better than korn" part. you can't compare the two when they're of different categories. but i'm speaking as someone who's a fan of both. they're both good in their own ways.

[@aphoenixinside]

Yes, this them. They genre-hop a lot.

[@skulhed666]

Awesomeness.

[@srdb11]

Excellent in every way

[@ctdjazz]

Well come on, let's be fair. When I heard the intro to this song, MBV was the first thing I thought. You can't deny that it sounds like them. It's not shoegaze, as you mentioned, but you can't totally throw away the comparison.

[@slint69]

The ideal, he seems quite uneasy Is almost crying, and he just sits there He's got a pair of dark, innocent eyes "So tell me." The lies quivers together. "Tell me, don't shy away." Scared "Tell me." The lies squeeze each other, very tightly This is like a prayer, I thought, till the night came Bring it down, you've got the blade in your left hand. Don't hesitate Trying to or not trying to terminate, he has some tears in his eyes Caught off-guard, his eyes give somewhat dismayed look With the innocence deep inside Look, it's so wistful. Why, why do you blame me? The melody penetrates his chest, and stops him crying The melody penetrates his chest, and makes him pray It drives him insane, oh he still has those innocent eyes It makes him pray "How does it feel to be driven insane?" He still has it in the chest, it seems Somehow he feels it's inside of himself The Satan might have given him nowhere to go It's sticking into his chest, and it's the Satan

[@Paradise_Lost]

I see them moving on the picture I swear!

[@Wolham]

...Boris is the most mindblowingly awesome band I have ever heard, and they've revolutionized the way I think about music several times over with their records. Korn is a nu-metal band that to me in comparison is about as interesting and revolutionizing as pop. If korn even tried to be a slim glimpse of as awesome as Boris is, they'd probably hit the world like a storm due to their already established commercial success. So, my good sir, what the fuck are you talking about?

[@OliverCarson]

Is that Wata rockimg the casio dg-20?

[@motorik6]

What are you talking about? Boris don't sound like Korn. Nor do they attempt to. If this happens to sound like a song of theirs then it is merely a coincidence. Boris are so eclectic the chances of such a thing happening is possible. However comparing them to Korn is just wrong. They offer far more depth and variety than Korn.

[@44almm]

is that a dg-10 keytar i see?

[@Pearl_sak]

不慣れな理想は 泣きそうに そのまま座ってしまった 黒い瞳はつぶらだ [言えよ] 嘘は震え合って [言えよいっそ] 怯えて [言えよ] 嘘は抱き合って胸を軋ませる 祈りのような... 夜までそう思ってた 左手の刃を降りおろせ そのまま 息の根を弄んで 涙を浮かべて 不意を突かれたら 無垢を埋めた目を泳がせる ほら せつない なぜ うらむ 胸を突き刺すメロディ 彼を泣き止ませる 胸を突き刺すメロディ 彼に祈らせる 狂わせる 無垢な瞳のまま 祈らせる [...狂わせてみた] 胸に刺さっている 気になるサタン 逃れも塞ぐようにつぶやいた

[@illuminatedfool]

Is that a casio DG-20?

[@Mr4scoreand20]

It's pretty much impossible to tell. I just read their equipment list somewhere. Rics are the sickest looking guitars though.

[@QsKIIHALOIIWoWII]

i think its waaah daa maa daa la la pokemon

and sounding the 4003 always impressed me

[@MetalHatter]

I like it :)

[@c4rdsh4rk]

what release is this song from?

[@BrianGriffin92]

Going through all this trouble for a troll. Congrats bro.

[@Vakkatron]

actually it is not a split album, but a collaborative album. there are not Boris side A and Sunn O))) side B, but both wored together in every song.

[@AnCapDanny]

Can anyone PLEASE help me find the lyrics to this song?

[@PlourdeEric]

Six... six... eight... The Neighbor of The Beast! - Irony Maiden

[@2gourds]

no shit, right? Knocked me the fuck over in SF Saturday...!!!

[@JFTC709]

It's not translated from Japanese, "My Neighbour Satan" is a completely different title chosen for the US release. The song is called "Next Saturn" on the Japanese release. It's the same song though.

[@coldwhitesky]

@274367 their is no problem, it was made like this on purpose, infact the only person actually playing the actual song is the drummer, everyone else is just fucking around most of the video, but again, its done on purpose.

[@touchandgod]

To each their own.

[@bonuscheese]

One's a normal guitar and ones a bass. He goes from one to the other.

[@deSadetheImpaler]

@Ice7String by that logic, arent the bands who influenced the Beatles even more important than they were?

[@ajshdhenskaka]

A guitar?

[@oidni1]

I like this. :D

[@MRBLuD]

I'm STILL trying to figure out the packaging. By the way: why do several of the songs just randomly stop during verses?

[@storksforever2000]

fuckin awesome song. fuckin awesome video. no smoke and mirrors polished fake-ass bullshit like is what is all on MTV nowadays

[@poseuresque]

hell yeah!!!

[@hectorosbert]

after hearing their collab with sunn o))) i'm quite .. surprised.

[@Lutivos]

Boris has been together longer than Korn....

[@Bakatrelos]

@storksforever2000 When it comes to narrow minded people age has nothing to do with them my friend. He will still be the same prick even if he is 115! And i totally agree with you, great song and great vid

[@nmh2112]

what about Tool?

[@ChildrenOfRadiation]

@JustOneMeatPuppet What's the difference?

[@JoeCapricorn]

Guitar - the bassist is on the right, with a two-neck bass.

[@Fanta666]

I fuckin love this song, Smile is so good.

[@mattisprettycool]

that breakdown or whatever the fuck it is tore me a new asshole

[@MutantCheeseburger]

sounds a little like old school smashing pumpkins

[@lcbryant78]

What kind of guitar is Wata playing?
