Boredoms is a musical group from Osaka, Japan. The band was officially formed in 1986, although some date the band to bedroom tape experiments from 1982.

The band has a vast and sometimes confusing discography.

Now a sextet after a recent masculine infusion, Amiina released its second full length album, Puzzle, in September 2010.
