"Pink" is an album by Japanese band Boris, released in 2005 on Diwphalanx Records in Japan and subsequently reissued in the US on Southern Lord. The album received very favourable reviews, largely for taking a more melodic and accessible direction than had been taken in the band's work in the past. A music video was also shot for the title track, but was limited to less than 100 copies on DVD. It has not surfaced elsewhere.

The music video for the title track was included in the limited CD+DVD Southern Lord version of the album 'Smile'.
