Pink the landmark 2006 album by Boris which earned widespread critical praise - including Pitchfork s Top 10 Albums of 2006 - will be reissued in a deluxe edition this summer to commemorate the album s 10th anniversary. The deluxe 3xLP box set and 2xCD features an entire album of previously unreleased tracks recorded during the Pink album sessions in 2004-2005. The bonus Forbidden Songs collects 9 tracks of the same hyperactive accessible and aggressive caliber of the original album available here for the first time mixed (with additional editing and arrangement) in 2015 and mastered in January 2016. Like the original U.S. vinyl release the Pink (Deluxe Edition) LP set has three longer edits of songs that were truncated on the original CD issue (quot;Farewellquot; quot;Pseudo-Breadquot; and quot;My Machinequot;). Otherwise both the LP and CD versions have the same audio as the 2006 release. And Pink (Deluxe Edition) also features the artwork of the original Japanese release made by the band members themselves. In 2006 Pink was Boris 10th album and a major breakthrough that earned new fans outside of the underground metal community - the track quot;Farewellquot; was even featured in Jim Jarmusch s classic film The Limits of Control. The album landed on countless quot;best of the yearquot; lists from underground metal sites to mainstream rock magazines. And the praise was certainly well deserved for it s more accessible sound and explorations into shoegaze and ambient structures alongside brutal noise searing psychedelia and apocalyptic doom. Pink succeeds at what most bands cannot do: swiftly changing styles from song to song while always sounding distinctly like themselves. The seamless explosive set of fan favorites from the classic longtime lineup of drummer/vocalist Atsuo guitarist/vocalist Wata and bassist/guitarist/vocalist Takeshi still sounds as mindblowing as it did a decade ago. And Forbidden Songs continues with the same unbridled creativity and ferocity. These songs aren t outliers they re rather more like the director s cut version of the original album.
