Japanese experimental rock heroes Boris kick off their 25th Anniversary European tour in Moscow tomorrow night, a twenty-date traipse that concludes at shows in Dublin’s Whelan’s on August 20, Cork’s Cyprus Avenue on August 21, Belfast’s Limelight on August 23, before finishing in Helsinki two nights later.

Ahead of what’s set to be a blitzing tour from the low-end merchants, comprised of Atsuo, Takeshi and Wata, we’re pleased to present a first look at a new live video of ‘The Power’, a pummelling, seven-minute, doom-drenched highlight from the band’s new – twenty-third – studio album, Dear.
