Boris to tour North America with Nine Inch Nails

In news that will surely get a few people excited, long-running Japanese experimental rock three-piece Boris are prepping for a North American tour alongside industrial legends Nine Inch Nails.

Boris are out in support of their new record, Smile, which came out earlier this year on Southern Lord.

NIN released their new album, The Slip, as a free download on their website this past May, followed by a limited-edition physical release on CD/DVD and vinyl in July.
