Boredoms - Vision Creation Newsun (2001)

First brought to the attention of the world through their support slots with Nirvana, the Boredoms have been part of the fabric of the indie-rock scene for over 20 years now. However, they are still pushing boundaries today and picking up new fans, like myself.
On this album, VCN, they create a hypnotic sound scape which mixes their distinctive tribal percussions with dreamy electronics. My favorite track on the album, (Tilde), starts uses a breaks-y drumbeat to amazing effect, gradually layering the blips and beeps on top. I find they are the perfect accompaniment to work or the such like, as they're probably abit too frantic to totally relax too.

Also, on the 7th July 2007, the band were once again pushing boundaries with their 77 Boa-drum concert in New York, a spectacle which brought together (you guessed it!) 77 drummers on what looked like a beautiful summers day. Check out this video.
