Is this really so unbelievable? I bet you have dozens of posts of people making the same prediction every year since like 2015. If he was oddly specific, like including the release date in spring/may, it might've been spooky.

>>130352523
we already knew one was on the way since 2022, a rep confirmed it was in the works back then

So these threads is just 1 guy talking to himself all day right? I dont believe for even a second that this reddit band warrants multiple generals
>>
>>130353373
You know Boards of Canada is pretty popular in music circles, right? They've got more than 1 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone. They're not an underground band. They also have a very dedicated fanbase. BOC have fan websites that have existed for decades now.

BoC is bigger than you're mom!

it's over

To be fair, we don't have much more to say until the listening parties or potential leaks.

I'm just waiting for the album to drop now. Got nothing more to say. Gonna stay away from the leaks.

When did this band get so popular? I don't remember this craze for their last album. Are they reddit now? Pushed by the algo?
>>
>>130352435
There’s also a bonus track for anyone that pre-orders the bucket set, it’s titled ‘Lesbiana Macciando’. I got a VHS tape in the mail with some info but it’s kinda special to me so I don’t wanna share anymore details but the tape is fucking sick. I can’t wait for the release!
>>
>>130356486
what "craze" lol? it's only oldheads, uncs, and ogs who are excited about it.
>>
>>130356486
Nah they had a great tour like that pornstar and giving away all kinda shit… But honestly I think it’s just Boards of Canada themselves posting over and over again. No one listens to them, at least anyone that isn’t VHS mouth gagged.
>>
>>130356560
Stop using buzzwords. I’ll tell your boss you’re posting while on a break too, so get back to eating prawns on the Barbie, buddy.

>Pushed by the algo?
to me it seems obvious they have opted not to promote the album by using bots and trying to go viral, speaking as an obsessive fan that have kept up with the entire marketing campaign.

a couple of things I may suspect they did to just drum up some chatter about the band earlier in the year was release "Some Old Tunes" which I wouldn't be shocked if Warp was behind. It seems a little suspect that this would come out along with other higher quality rips of some old tunes the same year they release new music. But I don't think they're doing the bot meme thing that bands like Geese.

>mfw a literal teaser track is better than both the opener and the lead single
Tape 05 better be on the album I swear to GOD
>>
>>130354724
Nothing else really to discuss until release, unless you want to interact with the underage shitposter(s)
>>
>>130353373
not that this is a perfect metric but its the 3rd most anticipated album of the year on aoty, ahead of madonna, ariana grande, and muse

Geogaddi on loop Till then

>>130360360
Stop playin, that came out like three years ago
>>
>>130360360
I would've preferred a more expensive 6-LP box set, maybe produced exactly according to the number of pre-orders. (And then maybe a cheaper small CD box set for those who don't like that. I don't normally want to buy CDs)

less than 9 days to go, only another 200 hours
less than 72 before we hear peoples thoughts from the listening sessions
