linkPitchfork Media (8.0/10) link Dronevil is a double album by Japanese band Boris. The Drone disc's tracks are quieter and fall in the more ambient/drone spectrum of Boris' work. The Evil disc's emphasis is on guitar-work, falling into the doom-metal range of Boris.
The album was originally released on double vinyl in a pressing of 1000 copies; 200 on grey vinyl and 800 on black.[1] The intention is for both LPs to be played simultaneously, though they can also be listened to separately. The artwork for this release was done by Stephen O'Malley of Sunn O))).[2]
Dronevil was re-released through Inoxia Records as Dronevil -Final- in 2006 on (double) CD format, remastered by Jason Lescalleet with two additional tracks not found on the original release.
