I found this in the dutch newspaper NRC Handelsblad. Translated by me (my first translation).

Boards of Canada: Tomorrow's Harvest
3/5
People waited eagerly for the new music by Boards of Canada. The brothers Micheal and Marcus Sandison from Scotland hadn't released a cd in eight years, after they debuted in 1998 with Music Has The Right To Children and two cd's after that. Every new cd reinforced their position as head of the instrumental electronica. Unexpectedly intense - for this subdued kind of music - fans and followers praise and worship the duo.
It would seem the brothers found a niche; that of introvert soundscapes, inspired by film-music from the 70's. On their new cd Tomorrows Harvest the music is even more introvert. De tone is clear, the music slowly building up, with consistent added layers: rustling percussion over swelling noise and tinkling arpeggios. The tracks have a unchanging tempo, with an echo of James Blake like deep bass(Transmissiones Ferox), or, like in Telepath, the human voice, metallicly distorted.
Tomorrow's harvest can be compared to the Brian Eno's lp's in his ambient period: beautiful and basking, but not very exciting.

Clearly this guy doesn't know his BoC from his EnO.
