Thrill Jockey have put out this trailer for Boredoms' 77 Boa Drum: Like the bearded dude says; "It's the Birth of the Galaxy".
Directed by Jun Kawaguchi, it documents the preparation and performance of the massive 77 drummer Brooklyn event from 2007. Not as big as the 88 drummer fest at Le Brea Tar Pits in LA in 2008, but that's not the point - 77 drummers is more rhythm than a mind can focus on! An elemental transcendental force Yamantaka Eye's fractal hydra of a drum circle is essential viewing as much as listening for the vast spectacle of it all.
The DVD drops on September 7th.
