You are the 78th member! This is because the sound will spiral outwards, from left to right, like DNA, from deep inside of us right out to you. The 77 drum group is one giant instrument, one living creature. The 77 boa-drum will coil like a snake and transform to become a great dragon! – EYE, THE BOREDOMS.

Nearly three years ago The Boredoms, the mutable beast, set up a concert under the Brooklyn Bridge that they called 77 Boa Drums, a forest fire of seventy-seven drummers playing in a magnitude worthy of their task; to bind humanity together in one giant amazing drum circle inspired by Japanese creation myth and galactic metaphor.

And so, naturally, someone wants to reproduce it and sell it, to our great benefit. That someone is Thrill Jockey, The Boredoms’ stateside label, who filmed the entire thing with some nice audio and some high production values and who plan on releasing it in early September. We’ve got a month and change to continue living life the way we see it now, maybe.
