Boston Manor are celebrating 10 years of ‘Be Nothing.’ with a reissue and full-album tour
An acoustic take on 'Lead Feet' arrives ahead of the August reissue.
Boston Manor are celebrating 10 years of their debut album ‘Be Nothing.’ with a special anniversary reissue and a run of UK and US tour dates where they’ll perform the record in full for the first time.
Originally released in 2016 via Pure Noise Records, the album helped establish the band’s mix of emo, alt-rock and pop-punk, with tracks including ‘Laika’, ‘Lead Feet’ and ‘Fossa’ becoming fan favourites. The new anniversary edition arrives on 14th August and includes fresh acoustic versions of songs from the record, including newly shared reworking ‘Lead Feet (Acoustic)’.
Speaking about the album, bassist Dan Cunniff 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.”
He added: “Off the back of the release we announced Boston Manor’s first ever UK/EU headline tour and to our amazement the shows all sold out. ‘Be Nothing.’ gave us the confidence that we can be a ‘real’ band after all.”
The anniversary edition will be released on CD, digital and several vinyl variants through Pure Noise Records.
