I always associated MHTRTC with twilight hours, Geogaddi to night, and TCH to day. Doing so is a bit of an oversimplification, but I do think it's pretty damn fun to look at their themes and find the contrasts and categories that comprise what the pieces are getting at.

I actually can kind of see how this works.

With regards to the OP's theory: it is a bit far-fetched, but I enjoyed thinking about it. It's not like he/she is stupid for thinking outside of the box! (Or should I say, outside of the BoC? :twisted:)

Well, I don't want to sound like a prick, but I have 3 nipples. So could it be the 3 main BoC albums represent my nipples? I also have 3 big pieces of cheese in my fridge, could it be the pieces of cheese represent the BoC Albums? And the other small pieces of cheese I have represent the EP's?
LMAO :lol:

Dude, don't let these guys give you shit. Seriously. Who knows? You could be right. The speculation is half the fun. I've definitely worked my way into WAY WEIRDER theories.

But the 3 notion is interesting. Made me think of the 3 great sections in the hebrew bible

I like the Big Three Theory. Good thinking, it's a cool way to look at their albums, sense there are so many perspectives on their music.

I too have an odd theory:


Two years ago I was studying abroad. My temporary place of residence at the time was in Arbroath and I had decided to to take a train down to Edinburgh for the Fringe festival. During transit I met an elderly man who appeared to be in his mid 80's named John Thomas Sandison, or "Long John Thomas" as he was referred to during his service in the second world war. He had a peg leg and an eyepatch. As it turns out he was the grandfather thirty seven times removed of Mike and Marcus. He would recount a tale from his military days, describing "operation seeya later", carried out June 9th, 1942, to the brothers constantly during their youth. Instead of carrying standard issue weaponry, Long John opted to carry a carrot with a bayonet into battle. He was of great prestige in the British Army. Upon returning home he opened a bakery. As of recently he intends to become the first man to reach low Earth orbit in a spacecraft made out of wheat. The Sandison family as whole are obliged to aid him in the baking of this craft which is to be completed in 2014.


And so that's why Mike and Marcus have been too busy to release an album. The dough is on their hands.
Okay...now...wait for fog machine.

Good thinking. Now we can add Tomorrow's Harvest into the mix. I would obviously associate it with the following day!

Poseidon relates obviously to Headphase as the artwork indicates a net full of personal detritus from an airliner accident
