Boar - I Can See Your Breath [self release - 2010]"I can see your breath" offers up a single thirty two minute track of deep, nasty & brooding HNW from this relativity new Iowa based project. The cdr comes in an oversized white folder with a very fitting dark and murky drawing of a male mouth breathing on a possible dead naked female torso. The ‘wall’ jumps straight in with a throbbing, deep and low end judder ‘n’ roar that’s mixed with a more earthquake juddering crockery & plate violent rattle. The track is mid-pace through-out, and the ‘wall’ stays persistent, thick and unmoving over the tracks just over thirty minute life. I guess the only really movement or shift here is with the more throbbing tone which seems to become more blackly nasty, chainsaw engine purring and bleak as the track goes on. The track really puts you in a great brooding and grim trance as the 'wall' just endlessly stretches on and on in its brutal, total unforgiving and tar black presences. As soon as it’s finished you really want to buried and submerge your self again in its rumbling and juddering weight of blackness and bleak grimness. Simply put "I can see your breath" is a very nice ‘n’ nasty slice of thick low end ‘wall’ making that has really effective and distinctive brooding to eerier undertones. This is the first I’ve heard from Boar, and I must say I’m very impressed with the projects dark and nasty take on the HNW genre- another great addition to scene and a must have item for ‘wallheads’ really.
