    XYZ of the Peel Session's is possibly the most similar. Although the new track is lot calmer.

    Ok, so that didn't work out. I was fairly sure it was going to be leaked but I was wrong.


    So next BOC event is taking place tonight in a abandoned warter park somewhere in the Californian desert. It going to kick of at midnight Irish time.
    Will it be another video or dare I say it....a gig?



    @nocoverart:I know:p

    Does anyone know the actual release date for the album?

    If i go to the boards of canada website it says the 7th of June:

    http://www.boardsofcanada.com/


    But everywhere else says the 10th of June for Europe and the 11th for the U.S?


    I've pre-ordered the album on bleep btw.

    June 7th Ireland. our release date is always the friday before the UK's

    if you ordered from bleep it might not be sent until the UK release date though.

    I heard the first three tracks on a video of the listening party in the desert. sounds amazing.

    Yeah that is the case with Bleep... I've been caught out before, most recently with the latest Autechre - I had preordered the vinyl when it was first announced... I remember walking into Tower on the Friday of the Irish release and there it was in all it's glory - mine didn't arrive till the feckin following Wednesday! I did obviously have the pleasure of the WAV download from Bleep once I preordered - are they doing that with the new BoC?

    I listened to the full album steam last night and I have got to say that it's one hell of an album. I was moaning (quietly to myself) about the album only lasting a bit more than an hour but it's such a complex and dense album, if it lasted any longer it might hurt.
    I need to listen to it again, right now, goddammit!
