Melting Your iPod Seven-Inches at a Time

Japanese metal Gods, Boris have announced that they’ll be releasing three brand new seven inch records before the end of 2009. The band has been locked in the studio over last few months and this series promises more genre-smashing, ear drum shattering music, the likes of which only Boris can produce. The series is called Japanese Heavy Rock Hits and will be soon coming to fans via the band’s label home at Southern Lord.

Boris will release the first of their three seven-inches this month, with records to follow in October and November. There is no doubt that this series will sell out (as their music often does) so fans are urged to act quickly. Fortunately, the good (albeit slightly evil) people at Southern Lord are proffering a unique pre-order package, where fans can get all three records, as well as a bonus t-shirt and fourth seven-inch that are otherwise unavailable. Be sure to check the Southern Lord blog for further details.

Boris will also be made their only North American appearance at this year’s All Tomorrow’s Parties in New York last night. The show, saw the band perform their Feedbacker album in its entirety at the behest of Curator Wayne Coyne of Flaming Lips fame.
