In two decades the band has released a whopping 23 albums, toured the world many times over, and become legendary for their face-melting live performances.

Their genre-devouring sound makes for an incredibly dynamic live show, and they never stay in one place for very longójust when you think theyíve settled into a groove, they defy expectations with an electrifying sonic non sequitur. Fans looking for a heavy-rocking avant-garde concert experience wonít want to miss Borisótheir hair is long, their musicianship is unassailable, and they bring a focused intensity to the stage that makes every show feel like a sacred metal ritual.
