Boris Smile are a Long Beach based 8-piece with new songs via their third full-length album My Love Powered By 10,000 Practice Amps ( Count Your Lucky Stars Records ). The album, inspired by frontman A. Wesley Chung after an 8-month stint at a manor house in the south of England, includes 23 eclectic tracks emphasizing community, faith/doubt and strength in weakness. I'm starting with "The Moment".

![[Indie] Boris Smile – The Moment](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3364295_lg.jpg)
The ever-expanding group Boris Smile have put out a fair few records since they formed in 2004, and have gained critical acclaim for their orchestral folk-pop tunes. 'The Moment' is one such song, and really shows off Boris Smile's ability to write music that sounds like classic pop. Taken from their new album 'My Love Powered By 10,000 Practice Amps', the track invites you into the band's world of California sunshine and makes you want to stay there forever. An excellent song for the summer, then. 'The Moment' is featured on 'My Love Powered By 10,000 Practice Amps' [...]
So much good music, so little time. Let's jump right into it then, shall we? My Sleeping Karma – Tri And there it was . . . Mt. Everest standing right before me. It was 2006 that Mrs Racer and I took off, flew around the world and spent 3 weeks trekking across Tibet to Mt. Everest. Standing at basecamp, at 20,000 feet, the glory of Everest's summit before me, the majesty [...]
Don't you just hate it when your blogging platform eats your post? I do. That being said, to start your record out with the title track isn't all that odd, but to have that track be the single worst song is a ballsy (but probably just ridiculously stupid) move that begs the question, "Why even include the song?" The band is Boris Smile and the song in question is "Beartooth (Spooky Version)." I mean, why on earth would you have a song with ridiculous lyrics such as those below and a chorus of one-word tuneless [...]
Conor Oberst would be proud. The grandiose mix of stretched-out personal lyrics matched with a crescendoing snare drum is alive and well in the confines of Boris Smile's new EP, Beartooth. Loosely-wrapped strings and drums are nothing new in indie pop, but it's a fine line between sounding like the next wailing emo bitch who [...] [[ This is a content summary only.

Good friend Wesley Chung and his unique band Boris Smile will soone release another EP full of their excellent brand of music that not only plays to the listener, but communicates with the listener. A bit more towards the darker and moodier side, this release has been accentuated with the addition of Seth Shafer's tuba, keys) arrangements, but the band mainly stays with the pop sensibilities which has made them successful and popular. Beartooth is Boris Smile's first release under the Count Your Lucky Stars Records label. Wesley and Boris [...]
Boris Smile is a folk-pop band from Long Beach, CA. They mainly create up-beat pop music mixed with an array of orchestral sounds. Main songwriter, A. Wesley Chung, writes honest, amusing, and heartfelt lyrics that open a dialogue with the listener. By 2004, he had a small repertoire of songs under his belt and began to perform under the name Boris Smile, named after his young Russian neighbor. The solo project became a band and the band quickly became a fixture in the local music scene. At first listen, this may strike you as being somewhat of a [...]
