Boris have detailed a follow-up to last year's NO. The experimental outfit will deliver new album W on January 21 via Sacred Bones, marking their first release for the label.
A press release notes that NO and the nine-song W form a duo of related records known as NOW. Compared to the pummeling former full-length, W is said to be a "sensuous thundering masterpiece," with styles ranging from noise to new age.
"Drowning by Numbers" is the first song to arrive, complete with a mesmeric music video you can find below. Boris share of the visuals, "This video was filmed at a private showcase with limited invitation in April of 2021. It is a collaborative performance with a contemporary dance team. The song was transformed from its original performance and visualized; a big hat dances symbolically at the beginning of the new album."
Last year also saw Boris launch their extensive Archive project, and team with Merzbow for collaborative album 2R0I2P0.
W:
1. I Want to Go to the Side Where You Can Touch…
2. Icelina
3. Drowning by Numbers
4. Invitation
5. The Fallen
6. Beyond Good and Evil
7. Old Projector
8. You Will Know (Ohayo Version)
