July 10th At Webster Hall. That's your THIRD chance in under a year for these Japan natives. Tickets go on sale Sat 4/26 at noon. Hopefully we can look forward to more blistering solos from Kurihara to counter those blistering solos from Wata.
Boris' new album Smile is out soon on Southern Lord, and the guys are offering three different versions, not including the awesome version that they are offering through their Japanese label.
Prefixmag recently posted an interview with Atsuo.

16 bucks? That ain't a bad deal. But, please, god, make 7/10/08 one of those nights where Webster Hall sounds really good and not one of those night where Webster Hall sounds like I have mud in my ears.

Boris and Webster Hall is not a good match. No way this won't sound muddy.

on thursdays do they end shows early like on weekends for that nightclub bullshit?
Posted by Anonymous | April 25, 2008 3:18 PM
Yeah, seriously, why isn't this show at Bowery or MHOW? Regardless, it will be a good time - three of my favorite bands. Awesome.

Boris and Torche is a pretty sweet lineup, I have to say.
Posted by Jeff | April 25, 2008 6:29 PM
The blurb says July 10th, but the tour listings at the bottom of the post says July 11th. But it's the 10th for sure.

Another interview with Atsuo, on WNYU, is archived on the website here:

He talks a lot about the new album, its sound, and why the production is so glossy among other topics
