Boys for Pele is the third album by American singer-songwriter Tori Amos. The album was released on January 22, 1996 in the United Kingdom through East West Records and released on January 23, 1996 through Atlantic Records in the United States. Boys for Pele marked the first time Amos was the sole producer on one of her albums, having served as co-producer on her previous two records Little Earthquakes and Under the Pink.
21 years later, Tori Amos’ epic album Boys for Pele remains as relevant as ever. An 18-song cycle through which Amos examines love and religion in a world dominated by patriarchal norms, Boys for Pele uses the feminine as a weapon excision against misogyny and sexism. In other words, Amos wages war, with the resultant triumph of reclaiming the feminine. Amos does not come away from the battle without injury. But these injuries act as testament to her resilience, rather than loss. Amos’ offensive strategy against patriarchy begins with the album title, which alludes to the Hawaiian goddess.
Boys For Pele is a music studio album recording by TORI AMOS (Crossover Prog/Progressive Rock) released in 1996 on cd, lp, vinyl and/or cassette. Boys For Pele while receiving wide acclaim has many Amos followers divided especially as it was a major shift from her second album " Under The Pink". It is though a bold work with some excellent songs although the albums major drawback is that it is too long. This was endemic of many albums around that era when it was the norm for some artists to have circa 80 minutes of studio material for each release.

When Boys for Pele came out in 1996, many fans of Tori Amos’s fire-breathing approach to singing from behind a piano regarded it as her most powerful release. Plenty more still do. Named after Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of volcanoes, the album was the perfect storm of raw emotion for the back end of the 90s, when alternative really meant something, goths still walked among us, and having intense feelings gave you cred with the artsy kids-much like a new pair of Docs, or a NIN concert tee. Tori Amos was different, in a way that appealed to everyone who felt different themselves.
