This feels like pure, distilled Boards but taken up eleventy notches. I don't know how the fuck they've done it but to say I'm glad they have is the biggest understatement I'll be making this year.

Whoever did the visuals deserves a medal and all the drinks I can buy them until they fall over.

Can we assume a full single release tomorrow? This song so deserves to be heard in better quality than YouTube!

Same experience for me. I think this teaser track has hit me harder than reach for the dead did once we finally got that as a teaser. Don't get me wrong I was blown away by that one but this one just hits different.

Totally agreed. This one struck an emotional chord with me that I don't think any of their other songs have. The orchestral aspect of it certainly gives me feels!

3:21… ready let’s go

I have chills. We knew it was happening, but I didn’t realize how much their music meant to me until the moment the film zooms out to reveal the hexagons. I have looked forward to this day for longer than I’ve known my wife, much longer than I’ve been a father, and I’ve realized just now what a special place BOC has carved out in my heart. I literally laughed when the harp came in. How do they do this? How can their music do what nothing else can do? I don’t know. But it is incredible what it can do to me and to all of us here… Yes, the waiting drove us crazy, but the thing that drove us was something pure.
