Rating: But what should one expect from a band named after a Melvins song, a rather paradoxical band, and makes it their own (especially considering that song... slow, martial, fierce in repeating a single baritone riff for eternity)?
The answer is who knows. They could do both Hardcore and Synth-Pop and it would still be consistent with their passion for the Melvins.
Yes, okay reviewer. You like the Melvins and you only discovered them because you were intrigued by the name, but now give us the meat!!!
Succulent and varied meat. This Boris produce music at the same speed with which an eighty-year-old pees. Sometimes Drone, sometimes Psych, sometimes Rock and yet another time Heavy Rocks (2002), moving through Ambient and Electronics. It's surely madness chasing after their records. They must have been detached from some mad cow's backside.
Yes, but how does this album sound? Where are the reviewers of the past?
It sounds like a girl with almond-shaped eyes, slender and with a delicate face, who runs her Black Les Paul through two eternally buzzing Big Muffs that end up in an Orange fridge. It sounds like a half-wit drummer who believes himself to be the reincarnation of John Bonzo Bonham and who vents his anger by shouting and hitting a Gong. It sounds like a singer with a wasted pufferfish face who belts out singing in Japanese and flies, simultaneously, between the bass keyboard and the guitar keyboard.
In short, it sounds mucho HEAVY ROCKS.

Almost 10 years later, they release an album that bears the name of one of the cornerstones of their work, Heavy Rocks, to be precise, producing an album of equal beauty but with completely different hues.
The ever-evolving hydra from the Land of the Rising Sun mocks those who can’t seem to evolve.
