BORIS “KANAU REMASTERED” ORANGE/CLEAR COLORED VINYL 12” LIMITED EDITION OF 500.



This limited edition album from Boris is technically an EP with only 4 tracks, but is really an LP with the longest track clocking in at nearly 15minutes and shortest just shy of 10. Kanau Part 1 and Kanau Part 2 are the sole track listings for side A and B, with Side A presenting the studio version from 1999 ( originally released as a split CD with Choukoku no Niwa on Inoxia Records in 1999, so while this is a Remaster it is also the first vinyl pressing of the studio recording,) and Side B is a live recording from December of 1998. This is believed to be previously unreleased. This is a limited edition of 500 records pressed, on clear vinyl with a beautiful orange drop. It comes with a booklet which you can see from the photos. Despite the photos showing the contents of this album, this auction is for a new, mint copy, unopened and sealed.

Kanau in 2 parts is a really masterful composition from early in the band’s career, and it stands easily amongst any other songs or recordings from the band’s catalogue. Kanau Part 1 starts as a drone that is hypnotic, and it devours time to bleed into Kanau Part 2, where the beat challenges the tempo of the song until the bass and drums become the drone itself. I am personally a sucker for Boris’s more traditional song work, but I adore the band’s drive for experimentation and Kanau has really drawn me in. I am glad to have this record as a part of my collection.

IMPORTANT NEW INFORMATION:


This record does not contain 4 tracks, but only the 2 studio tracks instead. The live tracks previously mentioned must only be part of a digital download offered on Bandcamp. The listing is somewhat misleading as the “booklet included” is not a booklet, but a insert that has photos of a book identical to the ones pictured here in this listing. I am very disappointed to provide this information to anyone considering bidding or who has already bid on the item. If you choose to withdraw your bid based on the amended description, I am sure that eBay will oblige you.


To be clear, “Kanau Remastered” by Boris.

2021 12” Single on Clear Vinyl with Orange Drop
