Boris-”H.M.A” video!!!
grimmer and more messed up than ever before!:
Boris - JAPANESE HEAVY ROCK HITS V.2 - “H.M.A.” 7″ vinyl
The second of three new Boris 7″s is available now! Volume Two, “H.M.A. - Heavy Metal Addict”, features two newly recorded tracks. On Side A, the title track “H.M.A.” is a heady slab of heavy metal tropes, alternating between spacey industrial SFX, hard-driving guitar and the mantra-like chants of the titular acronym. Side B continues with “Black Original”, which echoes the spacey, electronic drive of “H.M.A.”, but cuts out any pretense towards the heavy rock vibe of Boris’ work, instead leaning towards a very basic electro-industrial approach. Cover features the controversial photo (ala Cold Lake era Celtic Frost!) of Atsuo. TRULY GRIMM! $6.33
*CUSTOMERS WHO ORDERED THE 7″ SERIES WILL BE RECEIVING THERE LTD. EDITION PURPLE VINYL COPY OF THIS 7″ AUTOMATICALLY AND VERY SOON!*
ALSO AVAILABLE DIGITALLY

SUNN 0))) Tour Wrap-Up; Vinyl Version Of Monoliths & Dimensions Now Available
An update from the members of SUNN 0))):
“Last week SUNN 0))) triumphantly completed its first ever comprehensive US tour by demolishing the Mercy Lounge in Nashville, Tennessee. Of particular note was the show at the Masonic Temple in Brooklyn where we played with our brothers in Eagle Twin, Pelican and Earth. This show was sold out (1200 folks) making it the biggest SUNN 0))) show ever in the USA! Fortunately the majority of these shows were properly documented and written about by several publications both physical and online. Thanks from the bottom of our hearts for your support.”
SUNN 0))) are also proud to announce that the mega-deluxe, 180-gram vinyl version of the latest album, Monoliths & Dimensions is now available! SUNN 0))), Stephen O’Malley and Southern Lord have all gone to great lengths to make sure that the vinyl version of the album is of the utmost quality in both audio and packaging presentation. This is truly how we wish this album to be heard, seen and felt. The albums jacket is a heavy-weight cardboard “tip-on” style that contains two printed inner-sleeves and a fold out “poster” with the lyrics and album credits. This jacket is then encased by a printed velum dust jacket that resembles a dust jacket you would find on a hardcover book. Order at: http://www.southernlord.com/store.php.
