Adult Swim Tweet - very boc-esque

Don't you think AS would have dismissed the rumours already?

i often think about that, often, perhaps too often, perhaps we've already heard some of it in their later tracks. we'll never know unless they tell us.

someone brought up again there about the 2nd half of what was 'rumoured' to be a double album.
oh lordy, one can only imagine. that would be a surprise as many would be expecting an ep as per usual.

exactly 1 year since that last adult swim event, ok... its 50/50 now, it could go either way.

Yeah, that's a good way of thinking.

Definitely not the same anyway ha, though they do all tend to look alike..

that and the fact that MDG has been quiet this whole time. so maybe 75/25?

I think it's a 100/0 in our favor. Facebook likes, MDG saying "!!!" and stuff...it's definitely them

quick, someone post a picture of the tweet on BOC's Fb page to see if they like it!

strange. i don't think anyone suggested they were yet. it's more about thematic similarities. two different images of radome and antenna to reference the picture of both that boc uses.

more tl;dr:
someone mentioned the antenna might be in bethlehem fla, but it might not lead anywhere. I don't expect there to be a record store there, or for them to use that again either. biblical references can be fun, but who knows. i do like the way they nest references and point to things indirectly. for example, white cyclosa may be a reference to a zombie (re-animators of the dead, like the spider, + the Romero nod), which would in turn be a reference to something else, like a contagion or something that people would react to similarly. unless it really is about spiders, zombies, and tornadoes all at once, which really just sounds like the next sharknado. i'm going to go ahead and write that script while we wait for more.

Can one listen to a photograph? Almost certainly nothing, but here's all the human-readable text in the image file: http://tny.cz/9b3796c7

I'm externally doubting, but whether I like it or not internally I'm secretly hyped

Yeah, I noticed that... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internatio ... Commission

We really ought to know better than to pursue shit like this.

Perhaps that's something you can find in just about any photo. Maybe they set RGB standards or something.

EDIT: yeah, looks like it http://www.iec.ch/colourmanagement/iec_ ... odings.htm

I agree, don't think that fits at all and probably why I'm not buying that this is anything BoC related.

Remember, that page was also part of their cryptic PR and is full of aforementioned imagery:

I'm aware of that, but a hashtag on AdultSwim with Illuminati seems a bit cheap and very ridiculous. I only gave it thought with: "Illumination Only" - but even then, it's a stretch IMO

I agree, though the illuminati thing may be something people on Adult Swim's end added in. Other than that it sounds VERY much like the stuff last year, it sounds like something BoC would do, right down to the "listen closely" request without punctuation.
