Biography

Boris, a Japanese sludge/doom rock trio, derives their name from a Melvins song and shares a musical kinship with the grunge pioneers. Their sound is a blend of downtuned guitar/bass tones, slow tempos, and influences ranging from psychedelic rock to noise and punk. Their discography includes massive conceptual projects and collaborations with avant-garde artists like Keiji Haino and Merzbow. Formed in the early '90s, Boris released their debut album Absolutego in 1996 and continued to push boundaries with releases like Flood and Pink, gaining a wider international following through labels like Southern Lord.

In their over 25-year career, Boris has maintained a prolific output, releasing a diverse array of albums and collaborations with artists like Sunn O))) and Merzbow. Notable releases include Smile, Heavy Rocks, Attention Please, and New Album, showcasing their versatility and experimental approach. They marked their 25th anniversary with the album Dear in 2017 and continued to innovate, reissuing Feedbacker and Akuma No Uta with Third Man Records in 2019 and unveiling the double-length LφVE & EVφL in 2019. Boris's ever-evolving sound and dedication to experimentation have solidified their status as influential figures in the underground music scene.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low
How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
