Some musicians are just machines (you and Aphex are good examples). From what I gather, BoC aren't. Doesn't make them lazy.Cupz wrote:I can't deny it's a good possibility anymore.

Re: A Direct Message To Mike And Marcus, Teach Us Anything.
So this guy goes to this restaurant, right? They have this chef there, Sebastian, who makes the best omelettes in the entire world, but it takes him an hour or so to do it because he has to prepare all of the ingredients from scratch each time. The guy buys an omelette from Sebastian and thinks it's amazing (LEKKER LEKKER LEKKER) so he eats it all up in one bite.
He wants another one, so he asks Sebastian. Sebastian agrees, but it winds up taking another hour or so for the omelette to be made. Halfway through, the guy gets fed up with the wait and calls Sebastian lazy. Then the omelette becomes way too salty because Sebastian starts crying into it. The end.

You forgot to mention Sebastian used to be able to do it in 5 minutes, while doing somersaults and driving a race-car.

It was actually just a really cozy Nissan, but the guy's five year old eyes thought it was a race-car. Sebastian still does somersaults while preparing his omelettes!Cupz wrote:You forgot to mention Sebastian used to be able to do it in 5 minutes, while doing somersaults and driving a race-car.

Lol. That only explains half of it.
To be fair my previous comment has made me shift from slightly annoyed about boc to genuinely worried about boc.

I'm sure when they have something to say, they'll say it. I do recognise it's frustrating sometimes, but there it is. Now if you'll excuse me I'm enjoying some rather nice pork chops.

Okay, I didn't want to bring it up but how would we ever know (not that it is our business) if one of them has developed a rather debilitating medical condition, issues with their child's health or anything along those lines. I would hate to think that there is a vague possibility that we are all here begging for a new album and nagging etc whilst they are going through some shit and doing the best they can to continue recording.Cupz wrote:Lol.

That wasn't directed at Cupz by the way.
We have all gotten impatient about the next release at one point or another and it is a natural response seeing as after TH we were under the collective impression that they were back in 'go' mode and we would start seeing something akin to a '98 - 2003 release schedule again.

It's not the 6 months spent making the post apocalyptic soundscape, it's the preceding 10 years waiting for the apocalypse.

Does your life depend on new BoC?
If no, carry on. If yes, carry on.
