The Boredoms - Super Roots 7 [Very Freindly - 0000]Super Roots 7 is one of the more approachable and ‘easy’ experiments of the Super roots reissue thus far, but don’t let that put you off, its still damn fine. All the three tracks are based around tuneful/playful melodies linked to rocking percussive matter. All 3 tracks orignate from a bizarre cover of The Mekons’ Where Were You?. The ep starts and finish's with smaller remixes of the main track- at four and eight minutes a-piece, with the original though thoroughly Boredom-mized 20 minute rocked out/ trace pop cover in the middle. The main long track stays pretty high octane and in a party mood for most of it’s life, only dropping in the last half to some nice jungle walk musical mellowness with a constant and humble back beat in play over the top, before drop out the beat altogether, into jungle zoned out mellowness. The other two tracks basically bring the recognizable and very addictive riff back one more, not doing that much special or over the edge with it, but really adding to the great atmospheric of the long form track and making a great near 35 minutes playing time. Another great addition to this reissue series. Once more presented in great facsimile of the original artwork with stuck on obi strip and all.    Roger Batty
