Boris premiere song from forthcoming album Noise, announce tourdates, continue to call their band Boris

Lovers of loudness, rejoice! After a (relatively) long and super-uncomfortable silence following a whole slew of 2011 albums, we got loud-ass and glorious word today via Pitchfork that the Japanese shredders are coming back with a new album in June! The loudest month! YEAH!

Perhaps inevitably, the thing’s called Noise. And, well, if it means anything to you, the band apparently thinks it’s pretty awesome. “If we had to suggest just one album for those unfamiliar with BORIS’ music, we will pick this for sure,” they said in the press statement. Most ingenious press statement for a new album ever? Yeah, pretty much.

Either way, this album of glorious loudness will be available everywhere (except Japan, ironically?) on June 17. But luckily, since you’re super-hardcore and will TOTALLY be all kinds of mega-hungover after another raging Bloomsday, you can preview the album ahead of time by listening to the epic track “Quicksilver” down below. It’s… a little loud.

Oh yeah, and there’s a (largely) North American tour. That’s less loud-seeming on paper, sure, but will probably be loud as balls in real life.
