Bosse-de-Nage is an American band from San Francisco, composed of four anonymous members.[1] Considered as a part of the blackgaze scene,[2][3] the band performs an experimental black metal style that draws from post-rock, shoegaze, post-hardcore, screamo, and indie rock,[4][5][6] with influences from Slint, Mogwai, and Godspeed You! Black Emperor.[7] AllMusic critic Gregory Heaney wrote that the band "crafts a sound that's as comfortable expanding outward as it is contracting into a suffocating mass of needling guitars and frantic drumming."[4] The band's lyrics touch upon various subjects, such as sex, filth, bodies, perversion, and death.[8] Their name is taken from French symbolist Alfred Jarry's book The Exploits and Opinions of Dr. Faustroll, Pataphysician; it is the name of a monkey which may or may not have been a hallucination of the narrator.[9]

History

After releasing a set of demos in 2006, Bosse-de-Nage signed to The Flenser record label and released its self-titled debut album, which featured recordings from 2007, in 2010. The band's second album, II was released in 2011.[6] The album caught Profound Lore Records' attention, which released their follow-up III' in 2012.[4][1][6] In the same year, Bosse-de-Nage also released a split with San Francisco-based fellow black metal band Deafheaven, Deafheaven / Bosse-de-Nage, contributing the original track, "A Mimesis of Purpose."[10]

The band released its fourth studio album, All Fours, in 2015.[5] They are currently working on a new album.[11]
