Bardo Pond are one of my all-time favorites. Their tunes are such a drugged out, distorted haze but they get stuck in my head like crazy! They're like the band that Giant Drag (who I'm also a fan of) are too scared to be. I can believe their live shows being slow at times, definitely. I dunno, I'd probably just be really fucked up.
Lapsed is easily their masterpiece, I don't think they'll ever be able to top it. All of their albums are trippy, peacefully noisy, bluesy and often interesting listening though. And what about the awesome chaotic breakdown at the end of a song like Don't Know About You (off of last year's s/t)? Definitely not
boring. Or what about Cracker Wrist!?!? Oh man... their release last year was almost as good as Lapsed now that I think about it. Their albums are littered with amazing noisy breakdowns, and what-have you's that blend into the songs seamlessly.
Outstanding band. I can't get enough.
