The Thing Which Solomon Overlooked 2 is an album by Japanese band Boris. This album, along with The Thing Which Solomon Overlooked 3, continue the series of Thing Which Solomon Overlooked albums.
Some of the songs on here are more in the vein of drone ala Sunn O))), but "No Ones Grieve Part 2", in particular, is the first of the series to feature drums. It is also a longer version of "枯れ果てた先" from the Japanese version of "Smile" (called "Ka Re Ha Te Ta Sa Ki - No One's Grieve" on the US version of "Smile",which is itself a slightly longer version). The release itself was done on Conspiracy Records only on vinyl. 700 Orange copies were pressed and sold on Conspiracy's website and various distributors, while 300 green copies were sold on tour. The cover is nearly identical to The Thing Which Solomon Overlooked except for the addition of the 2, the writing is in green instead of orange and the curtain on the right side is in a slightly different position.
The album was remastered on the boxset The Thing Which Solomon Overlooked - Chonicle.

Famous quotes containing the words solomon and/or overlooked:
“The Jew is neither a newcomer nor an alien in this country or on this continent; his Americanism is as original and ancient as that of any race or people with the exception of the American Indian and other aborigines. He came in the caravels of Columbus, and he knocked at the gates of New Amsterdam only thirty-five years after the Pilgrim Fathers stepped ashore on Plymouth Rock.”
—Oscar Solomon Straus (1850–1926)
“There was not a tree as far as we could see, and that was many miles each way, the general level of the upland being about the same everywhere. Even from the Atlantic side we overlooked the Bay, and saw to Manomet Point in Plymouth, and better from that side because it was the highest.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
