Boris live in Aarau

Experience Boris live on October 27th

Japanese experimental rock band Boris is scheduled to perform at Kiff in Aarau, Switzerland on October 27, 2026. Boris’s music defies easy categorization, evolving significantly throughout their career since forming in 1992. Initially rooted in noise rock and drone metal, their sound has incorporated elements of shoegaze, doom metal, psychedelic rock, and even pop sensibilities. Performances often feature extended instrumental passages, dynamic shifts between extreme heaviness and quiet ambience, and a deliberate blurring of genre boundaries.

Kiff is a concert venue located in Aarau, Switzerland housed within the former industrial complex of the cement factory “Zementwerke Aarau”. Established in 2014, it has quickly become a recognized platform for alternative and independent music, hosting both established international acts and emerging artists. The venue’s character is defined by its raw industrial aesthetic – retaining much of the original factory architecture – and its focus on providing a high-quality sound experience within an intimate setting. Kiff regularly hosts events spanning rock, electronic, experimental and post-hardcore genres and is known for its commitment to supporting diverse musical expression.
