"Southernlords' favorite, and most excellent Japanese power trio; BORIS are back with another offering from their eclectic catalog. Akuma No Uta is a 39 minute, six song album that offers up a variety of styles from past Boris albums, drawing from the heavier-than-thou rumble of Absolutego and Amplifier Worship (both previously released on Southern Lord), to the exquisite beauty of Flood, and the sheer jams-out-kickin' of Heavy Rocks."
Una corda hail from Birmingham, England. Featuring two
guitarists, two bass players and una drummer, the band features
ex-members of illustrious underground acts-Cradle, Marker, Ackbar
and Mistress. Their unorthodox line up makes heavy music for light
sleepers, a darkly melodic epic soundscape carved out with black
headspinning riffs.

Drawing influences from a wide range of bands like Black
Sabbath, Kyuss, Mogwai, Tool, Slint, Red Sparowes, Pelican &
Isis the instrumental four piece aim to build upon their
contemporaries earlier works and create a meaty slab of music they
can call their own.
