this is where my mind's at ... the shoddy recording quality, the upload on/right around MHtRtC's twentyfifth, the supposed naivete of our Discogs guy ... wouldn't surprise me at all if this was some funky ARG/marketing goofiness.
Considering TH was themed around environmental/social collapse, could LP5 be themed regarding digital communities, misinformation, the like? I'd love to see them take on those topics via an album. and this little 'leak' feels like a nice lead in to an album about internet weirdness. this feels like the most productive BoC speculation I've done in years. I almost don't care if it leads to anything.
Regardless ... loving the energy here
It's not BOC. It's Biznasty and Niski from The Magic Window Discord server.
I'm kind of sad the real BOC isn't here. I want them to return.
Daft Punkers recently released a studio outtake from Random Access Memories that is totally fire and amazing. It's literally got a disco orchestra string section, a classical piano part and a Gerudo Valley spanish acoustic part. Totally mind blowing. I wish BOC would do something like that.
If not a new track, a dank outtake from Music or TH!

Hi all, Fan of BoC since the late 90s here. When I heard Societas live on NTS, as soon as the broadcast finished I had a feeling like that was their final legacy for us or something like when a Wizard show his secrets at the end of his life and I thought "there won't be more BoC releases ever". Like in "Cinema Paradiso" when Totó discovers all the footage that Alfredo collected during all those years. I want to believe but it's very hard and that Societas afterparty feeling is here again.

I see no reason as to why it would be their final farewell, considering we’ve received confirmation from a direct source that a new album is coming.
Just had a thought. Maybe the reason for the long wait is because, we are all going to get what we want afterall. Both old and new material. However, we will be getting it presented to us over a long period of time, as a long series of weird ARGs.
Maybe it is time to move beyond the traditional album release format and try some new things.
Yes, this is the reality I choose to beileve in from now on.

This. They liked tweets begging for new albums for years, PIC and MDG have confirmed stuff is in the works and now Warp is acknowledging the need for a new album. I don't know what more you want other than Mike and Marcus coming on video and saying, "Yes we're making a new album. No we're not done."
When is the only thing we don't know.
I also have a good feeling they're going to post a single Twitter link to the new album with no ARG. Not after all of these.

Yes, but the thing is that we got that "confirmation" a couple of times before ? I mean what's that direct source? It's been a long time now... -I want to believe-

MDG is the direct source here. The same MDG who made sure Twoism was part of the 2013 viral marketing campaign. What more proof do people need? I’m getting tired of this. It’s not a question of if but when.
Nae it wasn't Davism, but Mr D James and a good pal of mine also now has a releases section. This is a new thing I suppose for YouTube to put auto-generated 'topic' uploads into their own separate pride of place.
