Boston Manor are embarking on a 10-year anniversary tour for their album, Be Nothing, which they are also re-releasing. Ticket information can be found here. The Be Nothing. 10 Year Anniversary Edition will arrive on August 14 via Pure Noise Records. The album features some reworkings of the songs, including an acoustic rendition of “Lead Feet,” which can be streamed below.
Speaking on what this anniversary, bassist Dan Cunniff has shared:
“For me; writing and recording Be Nothing. was one of the most exciting things we had done at that time. Doing the “band thing” for many years previous to Boston Manor, I’d always wanted to be involved in writing a full length record but never had the opportunity to do it properly. So by the time the opportunity came round, I felt like we were all hyper focused on what we wanted to achieve and also keeping in mind what this record would sound like in 10 years from that point. That being said; I think we achieved our goals with Be Nothing. because I believe this record holds up even today 10 years on. The record did more than we thought it would do for us. It opened up so many doors, especially in the touring world. Having the opportunity to travel all around the world because of one record is pretty insane!
“Off the back of the release we announced Boston Manor’s first ever UK/EU headline tour (which we were shi**ing ourselves over btw) and to our amazement the shows all sold out. And I feel like at that point it was only the beginning for our band. be nothing. gave us the confidence that we can be a “real” band after all.”
