The legendary BORIS celebrate a 30-year career as one of experimental music’s most forward-thinking, heavy, and innovative bands with the new album Heavy Rocks (2022) (Relapse Records). Today, BORIS share the third single and video for “My name is blank” from Heavy Rocks (2022). Additionally, BORIS begin their Summer US tour dates with Philadelphia’s NOTHING later this month. The tour kicks off after BORIS and NOTHING’s performances at Psycho Las Vegas and runs through late August and September. Includes a festival performance at Post Festival in Indianapolis. A full tour schedule is available below and tickets are on sale now at https://borisheavyrocks.com/shows/.
Heavy Rocks (2022), 10 pulse-pounding tracks, highlight the very trajectory of BORIS and their storied career – from the driving, fuzzed-out Rock N’ Roll opener “She is burning”, to the punk, raucous “My Name is blank”, BORIS is heavier than ever before. “Question 1” is just kickass – D-beats give way to a doomed, spaced out, and heavier-than-anything guitar wailing and feedback, before diving back into their Metal, sending the listener into a complete frenzy. This is unmistakably BORIS, and this is the band at the height of its powers. Heavy Rocks (2022) has a release date of August 12, 2022, and will be out on LP/CD/CS/Digital. Physical pre-orders are available via Relapse.com HERE and Digital Downloads/Streaming HERE.
