Boris is a highly influential and versatile artist in the music industry. With a career spanning over two decades, he has made significant contributions to various genres including rock, metal, and experimental music. Known for his powerful vocals and unique songwriting style, Boris has gained a dedicated fan base worldwide.

Originally formed in Tokyo, Japan in 1992, Boris quickly rose to prominence with their groundbreaking albums that pushed the boundaries of conventional music. Their ability to seamlessly blend different styles and experiment with soundscapes has earned them critical acclaim from both fans and critics alike.

Over the years, Boris has collaborated with numerous renowned artists such as Merzbow and Sunn O))), further solidifying their status as pioneers in the music scene. Their live performances are known for their energy and intensity, captivating audiences around the globe.

Merzbow is an extreme experimental music project created in Tokyo in 1979 under the direction of musician Masami Akita. Recognized as one of the earliest projects in what has become known as "Japanese noise," Merzbow has released hundreds of recordings since its inception.

The name Merzbow is derived from Kurt Schwitters's "Merzbau" and is pronounced the same way. Originally formed as a duo, with Masami Akita and Kiyoshi Mizutani, Merzbow became a solo project for Akita when Mizutani left in 1989.

In 1991, Merzbow transformed into a trio with the addition of Reiko Azuma on electronics and voice, and Tetsuo Sakaibara (aka Bara) on voice and dance. However, since 1999, it has once again been solely led by Masami Akita.
