This is my page with statistical information about the band Boredoms/V∞redoms. I am attempting to accumulate as much sourced information I can to clean up confusions and add new facts about the band, in addition to maintaining the Boredoms discography.
For the most part, I have finished this task, though I am leaving this page here for now.
