'Boris' is a song by The Melvins on their 1991 album, 'Bullhead'. The song is a fan favorite and appears on the Melvins retrospective album/book 'Neither Here nor There' and the live album 'Alive at the Fucker Club'. The Japanese doom/drone metal band Boris named themselves after this song. The Boris song "Vomitself" from their album 'Amplifier Worship' has a similar but slower riff at the start of the song.

The song was covered by Isis and Agoraphobic Nosebleed on the 2005 tribute album 'We Reach: The Music of the Melvins', and by Boris and Japanese noise musician Merzbow on their 2020 collaborative album '2R0I2P0'.
