For real though, it does seem strange how online they have been as of late, I don't want to judge them too much on their statements in the past but it seemed like they where never going to have an online presence, I get that things change and maybe their minds have changed in some aspects, still feels weird to know they might be browsing social media..
They're also likely reading us here

I tend to agree, especially on the dates. Can't be coincidence.

August 23rd 2011:
  • Hell Interface Page creation date
  • Unlisted video Nuevas Semillas got updated on Hell Interface Youtube channel
April 22nd 2013:
  • Nuevas Semillas got, nearly 2 years later, publicly released during TH's marketing campaign.
So I can say the website is legit, and presumably the Hell Interface Facebook page was at the very least legit in 2011 and 2013, and unless it has been hacked recently it still is a legit page.

My guess is this channel is fan made (wish it was real!), but that Whitney Houston scary image appeared inverted back in 2013 here
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCegVco ... FJn4B3eBqA

The channel is called Sheol Boundary, which is roughly translatable to Hell Interface.

They posted an impressive parody video in response to a video I made. (Amusing and slightly flattering even if not "real").

That was discussed at the time in this thread: https://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic. ... 4&start=20

I would say this adds in to it being legit more than it being an elaborate hoax. Especially because you can't just dismiss the alignment of the Nuevas Semillas upload date and the page creation date. That can't be a coincidence.

Also keep in mind that the profile picture they use on the Hell Interface soundcloud, bandcamp and YouTube channel is the exact same one as they used prior to the one used now (Whitney) on the Facebook page. The one on Facebook is the one with the highest resolution and was uploaded August 23rd 2011.

I know the bandcamp page is legit. http://hellinterface.bandcamp.com
For this I also have reason to believe the soundcloud one is legit. http://soundcloud.com/hellinterface

Also the website http://www.hellinterface.com/ is owned by them.

There's just too much that properly connects. Unless of course the Facebook page got hacked just recently...

this is so hilarious and confusing

it's interesting this Sheol Boundary's banner is also the Pioneer Plaque......

and that parody really is impressive. honestly seems like it could be BoC tier trolling.

personally this doesn't kill my hopes yet anyway. maybe i'm a little too stoned

It'd be really neat if Sheol Boundary was legit. But here's one subtle but nonetheless worth mentioning piece of evidence kind of against it. In the years since I made that video I realized I got a note wrong (not bad sounding, but wrong) in both Red Moss and Peacock Tail. In the parody video, the overdubbed notes are the wrong ones I played, rather than the correct ones.

why would you correct something you're parodying though?

to me that doesn't go against it at all.

it would almost be weirder if they corrected the notes, in my opinion

Yes, absolutely. This one feels as real as it gets. Tho, not much to see here. At least for now

Okay I've missed the 2011 date on the profile pic until now. If we could rule out that that date can somehow be manipulated (can you "update" a photo in place?), that would be quite compelling, since that's well before the TH campaign started.

No way to say for sure either way of course but to me it seemed like evidence against.

I second this big time. Whomever created this paid perfect tribute by keeping the faults intact.

Well I can't change the publishing dates on my bocpages Facebook posts/videos/videos/banners/profile pics. So there's that.

I'll have to admit this is all too vague so far. However t would be a great beginning to some new happening. Fearful forces plan their pattern by proxy.

Who knows. But again, they're subtly wrong and still sound good. Errors I made by ear rather than sloppy playing. No one else has pointed out to me that they're wrong and I didn't realize it for years.

The only convincing thing to me so far is this parody video. To me it seems like they would be very interested in someone covering their songs live. Also if they corrected you it would be 100% sure it was them, who else would notice that besides you. But man, Gangam Style, that took me back :lol:

Could you tell me why the Nuevas Semillas unlisted video upload date, which matches the creation date of the Hell Interface Facebook page, is not convincing to you? The HI Facebook profile pic, also added on that exact same date 23rd Aug 2011, is the same as they use on their legit bandcamp and YouTube page. You're telling me this is coincidence and as such not convincing?

You are probably right, too many things match up. Just don't wanna get my hopes up too soon.

Yeah the unlisted date match is also pretty convincing. Not sure what kind of other trickery could explain it.

Well now that I'm actually entertaining the possibility of Sheol Boundary being in some way legit, I wish I remembered what the banner was way back in 2013. There's actually what feels like a vague memory of it being the Pioneer Plaque even years ago. There's a familiarity to the idea that it was a boards-y thing (hexagon) that was still presumably fan made. But it's not a solid enough memory that I can rule out that my mind is just now 'backfilling' after it's become a big deal on the forums.

Agree it feels like that could happen. Though I can't recall any recent fakes that were as hard to fake as the date things Fredd-E is emphasizing seem to be.
