I still insist this is one of, if not THE most underrated Boris album, and this reissue might be the definitive version. It's nasty, rickety, and hard as hell, and the last track is a much-improved rendition of the Noise version of the original LP.
The genre exploration continues with a superb, almost Mogwai-esque post-rock release, Präparat occasionally wanders into pleasant meaninglessness but for the most part it's satisfying, huge, and above everything else delightfully loud.
