It fits the formula of previous album 2nd tracks. It's got that same feel that Eagle In Your Mind and Music Is Math have, it's building up for the tracks that follow. This is so so good.
ARH THANK YOU BLEEP that single artwork is really beautiful as well! excuse me while i take this and go onto pendle hill and cry the tears of a child of divorce
Bleep blurb: "The first single from Boards Of Canada's highly anticipated forthcoming album has landed. "Reach For The Dead" does not disappoint; a weighty and beautifully rich track full of stirring emotion. Utterly transcendent."
Aside from the percussion, I have to say that droning at the very end is absolutely beautiful. This one track has reassured me that this album will not be a letdown.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Jesus, I can't wait.
until bleep demonstrates yet again that they are just simply not technologically prepared for the hoards of us BoC freaks- I've gotten an error message, though it is really funny to see the word "FAIL" in like 172pt font. and the fac tthat the vid is up is totally nullifying the error message. it's all good peeps, same song, different night, better quality, we're all reunited once again. <3 and hugs
EDIT: also I love how on the video, there is no 720p option- either lo-fi or FUCKING HIFI lofi

Defend your constitutionally protected rights. No-one else will do it for you. Thank you.
If you would hear this song just somewhere without knowing who the artist is you would immediately... I mean immediately identify it as BOC. Nobody can produce this in this world.
Ps. that sound coming in at 3:48 is just pure bliss
