Dronevil is an album by Japanese band, Boris.

[edit] Overview/Sound

The album was originally released on double vinyl, but is intended to have both LPs played simultaneously. A similar concept to that employed by The Flaming Lips on their concept album Zaireeka.[1]

Disc A (Drone) is two tracks, totaling roughly 40 minutes in length. Disc B (Evil) is another two tracks, totaling roughly 36 minutes. Logically, the Drone LP's two tracks are quieter and fall in the more ambient/drone spectrum of Boris' work. The Evil LP's emphasis is on guitar-work, falling into the doom-metal range of Boris.

[edit] Re-release

Dronevil was re-released through INOXIA Records[2] as Dronevil Final in 2006 on (double) CD format, with two additional tracks not found on the original release.[3]
