This song, just awes me. It has this strange juxtaposition of slow metal heaviness and shoegazey guitars. This, in my mind, shouldn't work but it does and that make it one of my favorites.
Fun fact, the echoy riff you hear in the beginning is an allusion to a melody from a Nick Drake's song called Horn. The song is on album called Pink Moon (Possibly why the Boris album is called "Pink"). Check it out, its pretty cool.
Now the book!
The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera, is definitely one of my top recommended books. I could give a brief summary of the plot but really, the plot is secondary to the philosophical ideas that the author is trying to get across to the reader. Kundera manages to discuss philosophical ideas with such a lyrical narrative that it doesn't feel like he is explaining anything too counter intuitive, that is until you try explaining the same idea to someone else. I really recommend that anyone with a slight interest read this book, it is amazing.
