Boris announce 20th anniversary editions of 'Pink' and 'dronevil' • GRIMM Gent

Japanese legends BORIS are celebrating the 20 year anniversary of landmark albums Pink and dronevil with special editions of each release, coming October 17 on Relapse.

The iconic album Pink will be available for the first time in a decade as a 20th anniversary reissue featuring the original CD sequence as a 2LP for the first time ever, with an exclusive D side etching on the vinyl. Additionally, Pink will see a deluxe reissue box set with a limited edition 6LP collection including 3 LP’s worth of unreleased music. The deluxe box set features the original vinyl version of Pink, expanded “Forbidden Tracks” from the Pink sessions, live material never before released on vinyl and previously unreleased rough mixes.

Boris‘ classic album dronevil will be available for the first time since its original release in 2005. Two different albums of soaring ambient space and frenetic headbanging rock n’ roll meant to be played at the same time. This new edition is a joint 2LP mix available for the first time on vinyl and is titled dronevil – example –.

Pre-orders are available from Relapse direct and on Bandcamp (Pink, dronevil). Stream Boris performing Pink in its entirety— Live at Shindata Fever 20160924 (from the deluxe reissue box set) here and dronevil – example – here.

Additionally, Boris will embark on a 20th anniversary North America tour this October and November, where Pink will be performed by the three-piece lineup from that era. The tour will feature the very setlist that once boldly repainted the map of heavy rock with its vivid sonic colors.
