Boredoms
Contributed by inagreendase, Posted by Vice

Vice has announced the reissues of six landmark 1990s-era releases from legendary Japanese underground act Boredoms. The band celebrates their 20th anniversary together next year.

The label explains:

It is in their little heard Super Roots series from 1993 to 1999 that one can follow this evolution. These albums, EPs, singles, and remixes begin with the band at their most violent and absurdist, and ends with them at their most magnificently tranced-out and blissful. Only one, Super Roots 6, was ever in print in America.

2007 will also see the world premiere of frontman Eye's greatest work yet - 77 DRUM - a once-in-a-lifetime performance by the Boredoms with 77 drummers. This is being set for July 7, 2007 in New York City.
