Band information

Boris the Blade is a modern technical death metal band from Melbourne. Formed as a four piece in 2010, The Red Shore's Roman Koester produced the debut EP in 2011 and then joined shortly afterward when his previous band split up. The EP featured guest spots by CJ McMahon from Thy Art is Murder and Signal the Firing Squad's Kyson Shepherd and got them signed to UK label Siege of Amida and before the end of the year Boris the Blade had toured with Parkway Drive and played shows with All Shall Perish. Into 2012 Boris the Blade continued to tour widely and were added to the Hobart Bastardfest bill ahead of a national tour with Make Them Suffer in November. During 2013, Koester left the band.
