Cold Earth and Gemini are up there too. Gemini is so beautiful, that's one I'm most looking forward to hearing on vinyl.
Oh yes on the palace posy. Yes yes yes. I gell in love with that track. The drums. The melody. The Chant. Its all perfect. I cannot get it out of my head.
This album ROCKS

The best tracks for me:

Palace Posy
Nothing is Real
Cold Earth
Gemini
Come to Dust
Semena Mertvykh

I don't think they're in any particular order, though.

For me it's Jacquard Causeway. I love repetition. I love how it sounds like someone is struggling to do something. That sluggish beat. Those tiny melodies. <3

This album is incredibly tight. I'm really digging the entire album cover to cover with the exception of Uritual....

I think Palace Posy is my favorite song proper. Collapse is my favorite "vignette" or transition piece.

It seems like every track has a Gemini or sister track.

'Semana Mertvykh'.

New Seeds. At this precise moment I feel as though I may be listening to it until the end of time.

Damn this song is beautiful. This is the BoC I live for.

i won't hear the album until after the weekend. but this is what i like to hear. I truly love Nothing is Real as a title.

i'm also glad to hear what was said about Sundown. i live for Boards of Canada 'chill out' tracks. i'm ready for another.
