Boris Announces Tour for Pink’s 20th Anniversary

Japanese noise-rock trio Boris has announced an exciting North American tour commemorating the 20th anniversary of their acclaimed 2005 album, Pink. Titled Do You Remember Pink Days?, this tour promises to be a milestone event for fans both familiar and new to the sonic adventures of Boris. Known for their dynamic sound that blends noise-rock, sludge, and psych-rock, Boris's upcoming tour will see them perform the Pink album in its entirety alongside selections from their extensive catalogue. The tour kicks off on October 23rd in Solana Beach, California, and concludes on November 22nd in Los Angeles, spanning numerous key venues across the United States and Canada.

A notable highlight of the tour is the lineup of diverse support acts, which includes Uniform, Cloakroom, Bongzilla, Suppression, Agriculture, and more. Each opening act brings a unique musical flair, enhancing the depth and vibrancy of each concert stop. This rotation of supporting talent ensures that attendees will experience not just Boris's quintessential sound but also a broader representation of the heavy rock genre's future. For instance, Bongzilla's sludgy doom metal and Cloakroom's shoegaze-infused rock will provide distinctive contrasts and complements to Boris's soundscape.

The tour’s emphasis on commemorating Pink positions it as more than a retrospective journey. Boris invites fans to relive the initial impact of the album, aiming to reconnect past experiences with the present moment. The transformation of heavy rock over the years will be highlighted through a “powerful, immersive glimpse into both the future and multifaceted nature of heavy rock itself,” as Boris stated in their press release. For many, this tour stands as a bridge connecting the formative years of the genre with its evolving landscape.

Moreover, the anticipation for Boris's live performance is heightened by the engagement with major metro areas across North America, including Austin, Brooklyn, Toronto, and San Francisco. Each location provides a unique backdrop for both fans and band to explore the album’s legacy. For instance, the tour will stop in culturally vibrant neighborhoods, further expanding the connective experience between the band and its audience. This deliberate routing through North American cities underscores Boris’s commitment to reaching a wide audience and affirming their widespread impact over the past two decades.

Tickets for Boris's 2025 Do You Remember Pink Days? tour are set to go on sale on June 27th. Fans eagerly awaiting the chance to secure their spot at these concerts should note the pre-sale opportunities available through the band's official website. The tour schedule also includes details about the specific acts providing support at each stop, offering fans the chance to choose the pairing that most excites them. Boris’s invitation to “Do You Remember Pink Days?” encourages not just a recollection of past experiences but an active engagement with the enduring vibrancy of heavy rock music.

Adding to the excitement, Boris’s approach to curating support acts like Uniform and Agriculture promises a dynamic interaction between different strands of rock, providing new listeners as well as long-time fans with a refreshed appreciation of the genre. Whether through the heavy, industrial sounds of Uniform or the equally compelling presence of Agriculture, each opening act promises an explosive start to the evening, setting the stage for Boris's iconic performance.
