Its original release date was April 26, but this was pushed back.〔(Boris Store Is Now Open ) borisheavyrocks.tumblr.com. Retrieved on 2011-03-26.〕 This album has the same name and cover style as their album released in 2002 called ''Heavy Rocks'', although the cover is purple instead of orange. The band brought back these elements because they "seek to redefine 'heavy' music in a culmination of the band's tireless efforts over the past two decades".〔(Press release of the album on Sargent House Records )〕 The album was released on the same day as ''Attention Please'', with which it shares the track "Aileron."〔(Announcement of Heavy Rocks and Attention Please )〕 It also shares different mixes of the songs "Jackson Head" and "Tu, La La" with ''New Album''. ==Background== Initial tracklist information had the song "8" (previously available on ''Japanese Heavy Rock Hits'') listed as the second track, but the final release replaced it with "Leak -Truth, yesnoyesnoyes."〔(Official Heavy Rocks preorder )〕 On March 29, 2011, Pitchfork Media released the song "Riot Sugar" in promotion for the album.〔(New Boris: "Riot Sugar" )〕 The vinyl edition features extended versions of "Missing Pieces" and "Czechoslovakia."〔(Preorder for Heavy Rocks vinyl release )〕 An additional full length mix of "Czechoslovakia" with vocals by Tomáš Zakopal was released on a split 7" with his band, Saade.〔(Split with Saade )〕 On May 16, ''Heavy Rocks'' in its entirety was made available in full for streaming on NPR Music.〔(NPR Music streams Heavy Rocks )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Heavy Rocks (2011 album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
