Boris have announced that they will be releasing their new album “W” on 2022/01/21
According to the Sacred Bones official website, the album begins with the same melody as on “Interlude” (last track on their previous album) and basically works as a follow-up to “NO” which both of these albums merge to create “NOW” - a full work on which each album compliments the other.
“W” is also supposed to merge sounds ranging from noise to new wave and include some sludgy riffs.
Oh, and Wata does all of the vocals.
Tracklist including lengths:
I Want to Go to the Side Where You Can Touch… (5:24)
Icelina (5:18)

They also revealed that the Japanese version CD of their upcoming album “W” will include bonus track “ひとりごと -Soliloquy-” [6:19]
Guys…these vinyls sold out in minutes. I was there at 8:00PM. One of the pressings I was going for was gone by 8:02PM. I put in my order by 8:05PM. It’s 8:12PM and all the good stuff is gone. Holy crap.
