2000 Flood [FLAC] - One long brilliant song (split int 4 parts). Starts off slow, but part 3 is so epic you might shed a tear.
2003 Akuma No Uta [FLAC] - My 3rd favorite Boris record (even though most of the world considers it their best). Blends jazz-rock, ambiance, and a pinch of drone metal (for good measure) perfectly. Truly a beautiful album.
2005 Pink [FLAC] - Definitely their most straight forward album, Pink encompasses nearly all of Boris' styles (which is why it's my 5th favorite Boris record). Each and every song is a little different and that is probably why this album is so critically acclaimed. This is definitely where you should start if you are new to Boris.
2008 Smile - Their most recent and popular full length is definitely a step in a different direction. As a metalhead it took me a long time to apreesh this album (there's not a single heavy song on it), but in recent times I've come to realize that the fact that every song has multiple styles/genres in it is aesthetically pleasing in a different but interesting way. This is probably the most accessible album next to Pink. THIS UPLOAD INCLUDES BOTH THE JAPANESE AND ENGLISH VERSIONS WHICH ARE, IN FACT, MIXED DIFFERENTLY and thus have pretty different feels to them.
