Japanese experimental band Boris has unveiled their new song “My Name Is Blank” alongside an accompanying music video. The track marks the third release from the band’s forthcoming album Heavy Rocks which will be released on August 12.

The song is heavy with ripping riffs, a barrage of shoutalongs and fiery lyricism. The music video is dizzying and high voltage with the energy of a live performance. The video was directed by Yutaro (Art Love Music). 

 Boris previously released “She Is Burning” and “Question 1” earlier this year in May and June respectively. Heavy Rocks marks the band’s second album release this year with W being released back in January. The band is currently scheduled to appear at Psycho Las Vegas and Post. Festival

The band will be touring North America this summer with the trek kicking off on August 19 with a show in Phoenix, Arizona at the Crescent Ballroom. From there, Boris will visit Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, North Carolina, Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Minnesota, Illinois, Colorado, Utah, Oregon, Washington and California. Their closing show will take place in Mexico City at the House of Vans on September 24.
