cover is nice but i didn't like the font they used for "Boards of Canada".. I think the A doesn't look very nice... maybe i just got to get used to it though... the rest seems great

Welcome and thanks for sharing this!!

I like it a lot! great album name, nice peace of art and lovely font and the design of this polaroid style "flyer" is ace.

I agree. If it wasn't posted from Warp I would've been tempted to call it fake just because the font doesn't fit at all. Shoulda stuck with Bauhaus....

The image is cool though, typical BoC style.

google doesn't return any hits for 'the campfire headphase' for now... this will never be the same again

I think the title is great, but the artwork seems just so-so. Like Fredd-E said, maybe I just have to get used to it, but it seems a little bland.

Track titles anyone? Edit: Never mind, they're on pichforkmedia.

Yep, that's what I was thinking. I refuse to download even a single sample of a track.

I don't like the cover art at all, but the title's nice... There will be less demonic references in it, that's for sure.

I only read talk of an lp and no cd. That would suck cause I don't have a record player.

I really doubt they would only release it on vinyl, but ya never know.

Shit, you're kidding, lp only? Where did you hear this? Surely it would eventually make it to CD... I would get a record just to have it (I dig the cover art) but I enjoy listening in my ride, yo?

Pardon my longwindedness, but I am going somewhere with this. I had read in an interview about Geogaddi that they weren't sure of the direction of the next (this) album, even going so far as to suggest that it may sound more like MHTRTC. I noticed the "colour of the album" art is that strange faded blue/turquoise that appears on their older releases, and even this bloody message board for that matter. The title also includes the word "campfire," which also has significance in reference to their past. I guess that I am already trying to solve the puzzle before it has even come out, but then again, that's why I'm here.

P.S. Dear God let it come out on cd!

I'm almost sure it'll be released on CD as well, simply because Warp knows if they don't release it on CD a lot of people won't by it. And people will make their own CD.

I did'nt mean to start a rumor, but Pitchfork said Lp and I read it on watmm and xltronic. Probably not true, but if it is, I'll just have to get a record player cause I've wanted to get one anyways.
