Genre: Stoner Rock/Psyhedelic/Grage Rock
Heavy Rocks is the fourth album by Japanese metal band Boris. Unlike the previous albums, which were laden with doom and drone sounds, this music departs wholesale from Boris's previous efforts and emphasizes punk and stoner rock. Despite this, the album was and is still well received by fans, and is the "base sound" for their releases on DiwPhalanx

Genre: Sludge/Doom/Noise/Psyhedelic
[/center]
Amplifier Worship is the second album by Boris. Excluding the "one-long-song" albums, this is one of only two Boris full-lengths to have vocals on every song (the other being 2008's Smile), and the first time that Takeshi performed lead vocals for the band (although Atsuo is doing lead vocals on "Huge"). "Vomitself" was written and laid down in a different session from the other four songs. According to Japanese production company FoodUnited, videos were shot for "Hama" & "Kuruimizu".The t-shirt for this album reads: "Frogs love to eat flies, the devil's name, Beelzebub, lord of the flies. Evil spirits love to spiritually feed upon those whom Beelzebub rules."

Takeshi - Vocals, bass, Ampeg
Wata - Guitar, E-Bow, Orange, Matamp

Boris - Akuma no Uta (2003)
APE+CUE+LOG or VBR244 | 0:39:05 | 259MB or 73MB | Covers
Genre: Stoner/Psyhedelic/Noise
Re-Released in 2005 (Southern Lord Records)
"Akuma no Uta" meaning "The Devil's Song". This album stands out as a combination of all the genres, stylings, and sounds of their previous works, yet maintains a mostly 70s rock sound with a bit of sludge, punk, drone, and post-rock. Originally released in 2003 on Diwphalanx Records with minimalistic artwork, it was re-issued in 2005 on Southern Lord Records. The album cover of the US CD/Japan LP is a direct tribute to the cover of the Nick Drake album Bryter Layter. It is also slightly extended to around 39 minutes, almost the exact length of the Bryter Layter album. The notable difference in the cover design is Takeshi holding his double-neck Ibanez instead of an acoustic guitar.
Recorded: 2003

Boris with Michio Kurihara - Rainbow (2006)
APE+CUE+LOG or VBR243 | 0:41:30 | 256MB or 75MB | Covers
Genre: Stoner/Neo-Psyhedelia/Hard-Rock
[/center]
Rainbow is a collaborative album between Japanese experimental doom band Boris and psychedelic guitarist Michio Kurihara. This album in particular is somewhat quiet and upbeat in sound, almost lounge-like in some parts. Wata contributes vocals to the title song, which has a music video made for it by Foodunited. Oddly, a couple of songs have another vocalist backing Takeshi. Either it could be Takeshi doing overdubs or Atsuo or Michio performing backing vocals. This could be possible, despite what the liner notes state, as Boris have mislabeled personnel before (Most notably on Vein.).
The album's initial release was done by Pedal Records, with liner notes in Portuguese.
Released: 2006
Label: Pedal Records
Audio: PDL-0601
Members:
Takeshi - guitar, bass, vocals (tracks 1, 3, 5, 6, 8)
Wata - guitar, glockenspiel, vocals (track 2)
Atsuo - drums, percussion
Michio Kurihara - guitar
