The funny thing about this collaboration between the mightily respected, Japanese hard rock band, Boris and The Cult's Ias Astbury, is for years many have contended (Myself included) that the only obstacle keeping Boris from totally dominating American Rock 'N' Roll is the fact their English is mainly limited to phrases like "Rock 'N' Roll," "Metal," and "F*ck Yeah." Put a real vocalist out front, one with dynamic range and a real grasp of what it means to be a rock singer, one like Ian Astbury, I would contend, and there would be no stopping this band.

And while lineup changes have occurred throughout the years, Astbury's incredible voice has arguably been the band's central focus–and for good reason.
