Boston Manor has dropped an acoustic version of ‘Drowned In God’ from their hit album ‘Be Nothing’. This comes from the bands coming ‘Be Nothing 10 Year Anniversary’ which will release August 14th and come with 4 acoustic versions of songs off the album.
Commenting on the anniversary, bassist Dan Cunniff says: “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.”
The Be Nothing. 10 Year Anniversary edition will be available on CD and digital formats, as well as a number of very special vinyl variants.
Boston Manor will perform at Warped Tour later this month before embarking on a UK and US tour.
