Salon Boris - debut album details.

[Ally]

Salon Boris have announced album details, June 26th release on U Discs. Sorry if I'm getting irritating posting on them every so often but there will be a short (probably UK) tour just prior to the album coming out.

I'll post tour details when I know more, highly recommend listening to them. There are some snippets of audio on the website, Bride Of Boris is my personal favourite. I'm really convinced about this band.

im not too sure mate. the whole electro thing makes it sound a bit cheap to me, nothing organic to really get me interested.

and the eastern european womans accent is a bit cliche

They're sensational in a club setting - their drummer is an absolute delight to watch. As you say though the electro thing has a bit of baggage attached these days. Still, having seen them opening a day at a festival, wasted in a club, at a free gig in a pub and at their own gigs I'd rate them as one of the best.

Got the delayed album on my doormat last week and it's rather a sultry wee number. In my opinion though they left a couple of the best tracks they've produced off the album in the form of Freakshow and Tokyo Techno Girls. Lead tracks Bride Of Boris, I Am The Drug, Money and Everybody are great listens and from experience translate well live. Bride Of Boris is still very much my favourite and has been since the first time I saw them live in 2004.
I expect a larger tour now so watch out. I've managed to get an invite to the album launch party this Thursday so I'll report on how the live show is looking.

Absolutely love this album and thoroughly enjoyed the launch party. Have lost my shit on numerous occasions to the tracks White Paths and Number One. So far this electro pop workout is my album of the year.
Live they've gotten tighter, I managed to get some great photos so I'll maybe share them if possible. Expect to hear about them as their popularity is going with radio shows and in-store gigs coming thicker and faster.
