I had a dream about BoC last night. It was really clear and real, which is rare for me. I haven't dreamed about them in 5 years, so it seemed really epic when I woke up.
It was a really long dream that started at a shot at a shed. Everything was heavy concrete and snowy; kinda James Cameron's The Thing'ish. It didn't have a door and there where empty beer cans spread around and there was a dark wooden table with a bottle of scotch and some glasses filled to the top, and they kept spilling. For some reason I though "So Mike and Marcus drink Heineken!"
Next thing I know I'm at an old train-station (a combination of the station of amsterdam and Den Haag HS) with Earthbound (don't ask me why) running for my life. As I reached the end of the platform I saw a little wooden gate that lead to a stairway leading up grassy hill surrounded by a chain-fence and concrete.
Earthbound was making pictures the entire time, and was wearing a hat with a piece of paper in it (like someone for the press or something).
I opened the little gate and walked on the stairs. Every step was cracked and crumbling beneath my feet and was surrounded by long grass and weeds. It was a garden that hasn't been maintained in a while. A broken washing machine there, a broken car here, you know the drill.
Next thing I know I was with some people discussing Boards of Canada. I don't remember the discussion anymore, I just know there was a flashback scene here.
After that I was back at that garden. On top of the stairs there was an old house, completely made out of concrete (brutalist all the way). I peered though a window and saw one of the guys watching football. I reached the door which had some colored glass in them, and saw Mike or Marcus vacuuming the hallway.
I knocked on the door and he opened it. He looked at me with fire in his eyes. "What do you want?", he asked. As always in dream-recall, I have no idea how the conversation went. I just remember him getting angry with the feeling of him saying "Why did you have to come here, you ruined everything" and earthbound responding with the feeling of "well...this is unique"
We went inside and I remember mentioning wanting to see their studio, to which I got no reply.
There was someone at the door with a guitar and amplifier. In the dream I knew who he was, but I don't remember now (its not bibio, if you're wondering..it was more in the Peter Gabriel region).
We had to leave as they had important business to discuss... As I left I heard him playing the guitar and I was like: "well wooptydoo, I can play 4 chords and call it a song"
That's about all I can remember regarding boc. I remember other things but they where about other things.
As I woke up I had this intense feeling of epiphany, and felt I should post this immediately.
Edit: oh, and nothing about a new album though.
