Boredoms

Boredoms, an experimental rock band hailing from Osaka, Japan, has been bending the genre boundaries since their formation in 1986. The group, founded by visionary frontman Yamantaka Eye, quickly garnered a reputation for their chaotic live performances and unconventional musical style that weaves together punk, noise, electronic music, and elements of worldbeat. Throughout the years, Boredoms have evolved in membership and sonic experimentation, often featuring a rotating cast of musicians and collaborators that contribute to their unique soundscapes.

Their discography is marked by a series of releases known as the "Super Roots" EPs, which capture the band's ongoing evolution. Among these, "Super Roots 10", released in 2009, showcases an expansive approach to rhythm and texture, while "Super Roots 9", which came out in 2007, is famous for its live drum ensemble performances, affirming their legendary status within the avant-garde music community. Another significant release is "Wow2" (2014), which further cements their legacy as innovators, blending hypnotic beats with surreal atmospheric sounds. Through their daring explorations and refusal to conform, Boredoms continue to challenge and inspire an international audience, securing their place as cult icons in the landscape of experimental music.
