Among Boris' less interesting albums musically, good packagi

"A strange album of blings and blongs, punctuated by occasional vocals. The standout track is "A Bao A Qu," which turns up on other Boris releases such as the "Heavy Metal Me" DVD and the "Rock Dream" CD; "A Bao A Qu" starts off like other songs on Mabuta no Uta, but quickly becomes a real Boris drone song, very nice. The packaging of this one is nifty, though, with multiple inlays that poke through the cutaway hole on the back, which helps make up for the disappointment with most of the music on the CD. Along with "Sunbaked Snow Cave" and "Black: Implication Flooding", this is one of Boris' dullest CDs."
