BORIS
borisheavyrocks.com
Recently Japanese experimental noise band Boris released their two-track Christmas single called Noël, via Sacred Bones. The B-Side is a take on Wham!’s classic “Last Christmas”.
The story behind “Noel” is that it’s a reworking of “Pardon?”, originally from Boris’ New Album (which incidentally celebrated its 10th Anniversary this year). London’s singer-songwriter Lauren Auder worked with French producer Dviance, for “Noel”.
Lauren talked about working on the song, “I’ve been a long-time fan of Boris's work and ‘New Album’ has been particularly influential on my musical style. When this came up, Atsuo from the band proposed I take a shot at making a new version of the track. I was at the time working on my debut full length with my long-time co-writer Dviance and knowing how much he has also been inspired by Boris's work it only made sense for us to work on this one together. I'm extremely excited for this to have come together and hoping to continue this collaboration in the future.”
Both tracks are available exclusively through Bandcamp.
Here’s a photo of Boris when they played Minneapolis in 2014.
