Comments on: boredoms live in NYC http://17dots.com/2008/03/31/boredoms-terminal-5/ notes from the digital underground Wed, 08 Feb 2012 15:55:19 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Jim http://17dots.com/2008/03/31/boredoms-terminal-5/comment-page-1/#comment-43372 Jim Tue, 16 Dec 2008 21:15:13 +0000 http://17dots.com/2008/03/31/boredoms-terminal-5/#comment-43372 "Not understanding" their music? It's more like intuition and response, not analysis. I knew from the first moment I heard that pseudo-boot CD early in the '90s, then Pop Tatari (it was given to me!) that I loved Boredoms. Weird, but great, that so many are excited by them, especially considering that last time I saw them maybe 100-200 people were there, but that's all the club would hold. They NEED to do a more extensive US tour again to satisfy our hunger. “Not understanding” their music? It’s more like intuition and response, not analysis.

I was incredible. I drove my rusting Toyota Corolla over from Adelaide (9 hour drive) not really knowing much of their music but my mate Samantha had seen them play in Japan and said we had to see them. I was insane, veered from trance like grooves to metal freak outs and pure white noise. There was a group of kids down the front wanting to mosh but they couldn't quite understand it all and stood there bewildered. I grinned and dancing. I am not so much into their recorded catalogue but given the chance to see them live I would not miss the chance! PS: Another thing that made the night so great was the support bands - Regurgitator and High Pass Filter. Both bands are really strong and great fun live but this was the first time I saw or heard High Pass Filter. They played a hybrid urban dub music but with such energy and imagination. Definitely recommend their music. I saw the Bordems at the Corner hotel in Melbourne, sometime in the late 90s. I was incredible.
