  Boredoms - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
As of the late 90's, Yamamoto-san has left Boredoms and spends much of his time leading the somewhat similar, trance-inducing Rovo.
The remaining members of Boredoms -- Yamatsuka Eye (AKA Yamantaka Eye and Yamataka Eye), Yoshimi P-We, E-Da and ATR carry on the legacy of Boredoms under the aliases of 7VO7 and Vooredoms, whose performances are generally rooted around 3 drummers and Eye's electronic manipulations.
The new line up has been featured at the Spring 2004 All Tomorrow's Parties Festival.

The Vooredoms have been doing LIVE shows in the U.S., UK and Japan for three years and the salivating fans were hoping for a studio release of that lineup.
The Vooredoms are three drummers and Eye Yamatsuka on vocals and electronics.
Their LIVE shows over the last three years are now legendary amongst the fans and allegedly the almost 60 minute piece they perform is recorded and in the vault.

On July 7, as 7VO7, Vooredoms host the “7BO7” all-night concert, which features performances by such newly assembled splinter projects as Uoredoms (Eye, Yoshimi and ATR), Anarchy 7 (a hip-hop scratch duo featuring ATR), and SUN PM 0:00, among others.
Vooredoms continue to perform their tribal-like underground extravaganzas, only venturing out of Japan for European festival spots, like their double-year whammy at London's All Tomorrow's Parties, under the insistence of the years' curators Sonic Youth and Matt Groening, respectively.
Though the band is still technically Vooredoms, it is agreed that they will tour under their old moniker of Boredoms to avoid confusion.

 Neill the Nomad: update
They are one of two japanese bands when i came over here that I considered a must-see if i ever got the chance.
Them and the post punk noise band, The Boredoms (Yoshimi on drums.) And the boredoms are circulating again - after a haitus - under the name, "The Vooredoms", so there is hope i will secure the set eventually.
But anyhow, im stoked to be catching "Skapara" (as the kids call em) in such a small place.

It seems likely that Boredoms have released at least 14 albums.
They are, by the way, officially no longer called Boredoms, in Japan at least, where they are Vooredoms, with the double o’s connected to make an infinity sign.
Vooredoms, most recently with four members, released the two track album Seadrum/ House of Sun in 2004, their first album since 2001.

 Smashing i-Mag / Metalchicks' Pre-release Party feat. Metalchicks with Kiiiiiii and Asa-Chang & Junrei @ Shibuya ...
With their music travelling in several fantastic directions at once, try as one may, it was hard to imagine what wonderful direction the band was going to take listeners in next.
The Japanese underground music scene is world renown for turning out a plethora of unique and eccentric sounds, or as I prefer to say "some crazy shit." Nisennenmondai easily fall under this blanket and can definitely hold their own against luminaries such as Melt Banana and Vooredoms.
Perfectly fusing the finer parts of punk, indie rock, shoegaze, and math rock with a whole lot of catastrophic, beautiful noise, the girls are definitely something that should not be missed.

 Pitchfork: Daily Music News   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
In recent years, the elusive Boredoms had been thought to have disbanded, leaving frontman Yamatsuka Eye to record under the name Vooredoms, with the assistance of three drummers.
However, no proper Vooredoms LP has ever materialized, despite the band's countless live performances over the past couple of years.
As every Vooredoms live show we've heard (ranging from 2002-2004) has featured one long, jammy track, ranging from just under 35 minutes to over an hour, that may indicate the direction of this new album-- or it may be a complete coincidence.

A crackle of treble, a wheeze of synth and snap, three drummers start to lay down a shimmering rythmn.
The tom-toms return, the lights shine and a mythical mystery enshrouds the band.
Pulsing through til the end, the Vooredoms are seamless, meandering, but always full of intent.

Instead you will hear the Boredoms sideproject Vooredoms, 3 drummers slapping the skins in tribal unison (one of which is yoshimi from the Boredoms).
In all his interviews Eye has continuously stated that the Vooredoms is a side project.
That isn't to say that the show should be abandoned, but you should cut out the lame deception or ignorant 'apparent knowledge'.

 Seadrum/House of Sun   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
They did play together live as 'vooredoms' - a very different group to the previous one.
The boredoms sound had always been guitar based - vooredoms had no guitars.
Seadrum/House of Sun is effectively a vooredoms release and it's about as close an approximation to how the group now sound live as you're likely to hear for the foreseeable future.

Well, in my defense, I didn't realize they were going to run stuff I emailed to them about recalling posts at the Yahoo boredoms group.
I have posted a correction re: Vooredoms being an Eye pseudonym to the staff webboard.
However, the tales about Vooredoms recording (underwater drums?) have me pretty clueless as to how this record will sound.

During five years of relative post-millennial silence, Boredoms changed its name to Vooredoms, swapped out its guitarist and bassist for two more drummers and attached itself to sunny psychedelia like a rabid Rottweiler.
Celebrating its eighteenth year of experimental surrealism, Lead Bore Yamataka Eye presents a pair of unedited, trance-inducing marathon jams that clock in at over twenty minutes apiece.
But this thing won't finish soon enough -- like some lazy holy man phoning it in.

 lacunae: hey bore hey (bore now bore)
When it's playing, every so often I realize that I need to listen to something else for work or whatever, but then I think: that would involve pausing or stopping the Boredoms CD.
I've heard it said that Boredoms actually broke up in 1998, when they played a "perfect" show at the Fuji Rock festival and Yamamotor smashed his guitar, and that the current band is either called Vooredoms (with or without an infinity sign replacing the "oo") or 7V07.
The day I bought it, somebody asked me what they were like, and I sputtered something about "like the most intense instrumental fragmentary cross-sections of your favorite pure-rock record pulled like bubbling elastic into endless glorious jamming," and she said "ew, that sounds like String Cheese Incident or something," and I was ashamed.)

What we do know of them now is that their guitarist Seiichi Yamamoto and bass player Hila left after 1999's Vision Creation Newsun album.
Since then they have morphed into a lineup that includes three drummers and Eye on electronics and voice now calling themselves Vooredoms unofficially.
No CD release from this lineup has surfaced but since 2001 the LIVE shows continue to move forward.

His adrenaline-fuelled digital hardcore scared me, and even the dragonflies away.
Little boy Alec gone, The VooRedoms - one of the many permutations of Japanese underground heroes Boredoms §¢ did a similar performance to their local appearance at last December's Wa Gathering, with 3 drummers and a DJ sat in a circle, seancing the music out of their instruments with their backs to the audience.
Amazing music - they were only the second band so far to impress me musically - but why I wondered were they playing the largest stage?

Vooredoms havent released albums, they only played live which should be amazing though.

I know it'lll still be good, but I'm just not excited about it.

 Intonomancy: 08/01/2004 - 08/31/2004
In the long and complex history of Japanese Underground music The Boredoms can stake a claim to one of the longest and most complicated histories of them all.
In fact, for some years now there has been doubt as to whether they actually existed at all with members going their seperate ways and Yamatasuke Eye fronting the mantric-krautrock-shuddering drumfest that is Vooredoms.
The latter playing at The Arches in Glasgow last year features prominently in my personal top gigs ever list.
