So basically this means that we will one day see a sixth Boards of Canada LP sometime in the eventual future. Very helpful information, BoC!

I always had that weird feeling that they released 2 or 3 albums in 2013 but we only found one of them, the others are somewhere hidden on the web...
Sorry for my bad english.

I remember them liking a similar Facebook post about 3 or 4 years before Tomorrow's Harvest came out. Point being, don't read too much into it regarding an imminent release.

I was thinking the same thing ... this is probably the first of many (very 21st-century) "hints" to the album's existence.

Actually that was roughly a year before the TH release campaign ensued

Personally, I think this is great news. It is not important if they release stuff tomorrow or in 10 years; the mere fact that they still seem be planning on releasing more stuff rather than quiting is enough to keep me happy.

Well yeah but that much was already established through the interviews during the TH release I think. They did say they'd follow up with something and mdg confirmed a new website with info on their upcoming "stuff" too so .. yeah. It'll happen. I just don't want to wait that long again :shock: :lol:

Even without that like we can safely assume there's a new LP coming. I wouldn't know why they would have stopped making music.

It's not about IF but WHEN.

Confirmed: BoC's anticipated "black box" release was, indeed, HL3 soundtrack. :mrgreen:

What Mark said.

I never assumed the hiatus was anything but that. BoC working schedule is probably back to the normal 2-4 year wait time for some time.
Okay...now...wait for fog machine.

I don't get why people think that BoC used to work to a release schedule of every X-Y years or LP, EP, LP, EP etc. before TH and that they should get back to it. Maybe they're just two brothers who make music and see where it goes and release it if they want to. :]

They are patient. Music tends to work at its own pace.

Oh thank goodness. Is it fanatical to say I need a new BOC album, or is it in the same vein as why they need to write another album? I'm not sure. However, I pray they can just be themselves, at face value, to purely create music, the way they envision it. I long for the old flow of BOC.
It's nice to be seen. We're usually just a nebulous mist.

Neil Krug was contacted by Warp in spring of 2013. RSD that year was April 20th. Doesn't look like the planning for the TH release took that long.

Exciting news/clue/hint/vague smoke signal. I estimate it'll be out within the next couple of years. :D What vein do you think this album will go in? I'm expecting a sort of Tomorrow's Harvest 2, or maybe a whole new style all together. Or they could pull a fast one and go full Campfire Headphase again.
