Encyclopedia
Chapter Ahead Being Fake is a split album featuring songs from Japanese band Boris
and American band Torche
. The album was released on August 19, 2009 in Japan through Daymare Records on CD, the same day Boris's split album with 9dw, Golden Dance Classics, was released. This is the first release from Torche as a three-piece band after parting ways with second guitarist Juan Montoya in 2008. A video for Torche's "King Beef" was released on January 5, 2010.
Chapter Ahead Being Fake is expected to be released on 10" vinyl in North America through Hydra Head Records
on July 13, 2010 with alternative cover art. The American release was intended to be released on the same day as the Japanese release, but Daymare began selling the album without Hydra Head's knowledge. After finding out about the Japanese release, and realizing that Torche's song "King Beef" was already widely available illegally on the internet, Hydra Head was not in a rush to make the physical EP available in the US.
