that's a lie. The artwork & title are my least favorite
of the boards catalog-not that I'm not down with minimal
cover art, its just looks a bit thrown together. When you look
at Geogaddi, or the IABPOITC artwork, you can really pick up
on the thought & time that went behind the composition.

Then again Boards may be like "fuck it" we're just
musicians from this point on, and its time to start anew.

Am I the only one seeing a "T" on the cover (For Trans Canada Highway), made by the converging roads, or is that just too simplistic and childish?

i think there might be a little interlude thing or two, if they do it will be on the end of maybe one or two tracks, like they have done before

If you listen really close at the end of the track on their page you can hear them talking or a sample of someone talking. After the bass stops and the weird staticy sound comes in.

We did, or atleast I did. Anyway, that could be very confusing in the future.

do you know what i think? i think for the 4 new tracks, they used 4 old old tracks and reworked them to sound new on this new TCHW.
I have no idea as of yet witch ones they used but maybe there is some idea in the names of the track.....
that would be so cool, and remember in a interview they DID say they where thinking about releasing there old stuff but they didnt say how they were going about it...
what you guys think?
am i right or just plain stuPid?

Lone · Post by **Lone** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 5:36 pm

i was thinking mabe they're left overs from the campfire hp sessions.. hope not though, well as long as its good music i dont really care where they come from..

clever BoD...i think you could be on to something...

look at it this way...an acoustic version of music is along the same lines of what you are talking about...

it would be old material only with guitars...

though TCH is not just guitars, they are certainly more of the focus...

so it is possible that they took older tracks that we have never heard and worked them into the styles of TCH...

i am still hoping for all brand new material...

boardsofdublin · Post by **boardsofdublin** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 6:47 pm

right on the button of what i was thinking.
well if one of them is an old track reworked then it will sound different so it will be new :lol:

cant wait for it now.

Whats the story with those demo 3 and 4 mp3's i heard about on watmm?
are they real or are they just AFOT? not really explained on there.

also i wonder if the "short" will be on the ep. and where and when do we get to see it on tv? i hope channel4 get it and air it one night.

i was curious my self wether or not the cd version will contain a the video...i know with out a doubt i will be purchasing both vinyl and cd...

but, lets say however that the cd doesnt contain the video...then is the video going to air on.... :oops:

(sick to stomach as i spit the letters out...) MTV?

if it is on mtv it will be on mtv dance for sure.
Daft Punks robot rock is always played at like 5 in the morning, so i dont see why boc wont be played at that time on mtv dance. also, mtv dance after 2am is pretty cool. they play a lot of idm type stuff.
But i really hope it is on the cd cause i will be buying cd and vinyl, i will buy a dvd if it comes out seperet(spelt wrong :roll:

)
