04092001 is a collaborative live album between Merzbow (Japanese noise musician Masami Akita) and Japanese experimental doom band Boris, released on Inoxia Records in 2004. It was recorded on 9 April 2001 at Milk Tokyo. It is limited to 500 copies on heavy weight vinyl with a dark silver cover. Though Boris' official site and most other sites name the two sides as "Side A" and "Side B," it's clear this recording consists of live renditions of five songs from Heavy Rocks accompanied by Merzbow's noise arrangements.
