You're probably right

How far back did you go to drum up that post? I don't even remember writing it!

Agree. This is so much better than 7 years of silence. And we know some new music will show up eventually. A month ago I didn't even think they were still alive..

Just a weird thought, maybe nothing though but symbols are symbols aren't they?

Oh for fuck sake.

If someone even says "illuminati" they are getting punched right on the pee-pee

This is such a blast. April has turned into a "Boards of Canada Appreciation Month" of sorts for me. Not that I've ever really stopped listening to them, but it's been a while since I've gone through their entire catalog and soaked it all in. I'm finding a new appreciation for tunes like "Everything You Do is a Balloon", "Julie & Candy (live)", "An Eagle in Your Mind", & "Sherbet Head". I've always liked them of course, but they seem to be resonating with me differently now. In a good way.

I'm sure a few jaws will drop at this, but I've also found my connection with Geogaddi after all these years. It just never really clicked with me the same way MHTRTC and TCH did. I'm in tune with it now and it truly a deep and amazing listen.

These guys really transcend music for me, in the way that Star Wars transcends movies. They're a part of me now, who I was, and who I've grown to be. I'm sure the brothers never intended to create such fanaticism with their music, but they've created something that has deep inner meaning to me, and I take comfort in knowing I'm not the only one.

Ah, to go back to the first time I heard ROYGBIV, or when I really got into Telephasic Workshop. The all night study sessions in college, the summer road trips listening to TCH with my wife, and the anxiety ridden days where I struggled to get through tough times but always found solace in BOC's music. They've helped me through both tough times, good times, and everything in between.

I cannot wait to see what the future holds with this new album. I'm ecstatic.

I know, I know, "but that's the way we ALL feel!" I just wanted to share my thoughts.

.

Agree with you on this one - the week this was released in 2002, myself & my mate sat down and listened to it the whole way through. That was the last time until 2008 that I managed to get from start to finish with Geogaddi. Individually, the tracks are amazing. But for me, as an album, I found it extremely difficult to get into it, and even now I need to be in the right frame of mind(which isn't very often) to get through it start to finish. That's one of things I love so much about them - their music demands your attention, you can't have it on in the background. But it repays you a thousand fold when you give it the time. Geogaddi is now 11 years old, and I still don't have a handle on it. Not many bands can do that for me.

I will never forget the night Geogaddi really clicked with me. It was about 2am, I was sitting in my red chair in the last house I lived in.

Something just happened that night, it washed over me, I just really got it or something.

Since then it's been my favorite.

Dawn Chorus especially.

Same here, back in 2003, bought it, drove home on the highway with the windows down listening to the whole album all the way home from my girlfriend's house (my now wife), it was an expierience to say the least, no other artist has hit me the way BoC has. Since then I've been obsessed. Every song is still as fresh as the day it was recorded. This album will be amazing.

Production-wise, Geogaddi was (and still is, if you ask me) so far ahead of its time. But still, my favorite remains MHTRTC. None of their recordings will ever get old anyway.
