Still yes to a new album! I'd maybe even bet on 2024. Some Spring optimism is kicking in. A few highlights! 2022-06-29: MDG: "A new album is on its way." No further details, but good to know they will be back. Lots of people were sure TH was their swan song. 2023-04-20: Funny Bleep newsletter: "No, we don't know when the new BoC album is coming", and "Maybe create a hexagonal altar and pray for their return." 2023-07-25: @boctransmission on Threads (part of Instagram) posts "Welcome to the official BOC Threads. Follow here for future news & announcements etc." 2023-10-13: @MikeSandison posts a link to their Threads account, saying "Offocial BOC Threads" 2024-01-18: The official handle on Twitter is now @boardsofcanada. They managed to migrate the content from @boctransmission which is still under their control, but now only shows a link to the official regained account in their bio. 2024-02-11: The official Boards of Canada Facebook channel posts a link to their Instagram account. 2024-02-12: The official Boards of Canada Facebook, Instagram, and Threads accounts now have a verification checkmark. There seems to be a lot of emphasis on Instagram and Threads. The last months they've also been adding fan video posts on their Instagram account. The most recent one was added 16th of March. There's 12 posts in total now. Who else is ready?

Why the emphasis on VERY? Are you implying you know there won’t be a 2023 LP based on some bird’s whisper? Sub-par bands. Ouch.

Same here. My LastFM stats show this. Easy on the BoC the last couple of years. But I'm ready to dive into it all again when the moment comes.

No. You just need to give it a bit longer. In other news. Warp seems to have finally acquired the rights to Hi Scores. WARPDD367 <-- The first BoC related CAT# in a decade. ? https://bleep.com/release/388652-boards-of-canada-hi-scores https://www.discogs.com/release/27087237-Boards-Of-Canada-Hi-Scores I guess Warp will announce it pretty soon now on their socials. Maybe it's only about Hi Scores, or maybe it's an opportunity to go full out. ?

=> Well, that escalated quickly. ? I welcome you on the positive Twoism side. I feel good about 2023.

Prior to this message the rumblings were more in the lines of “the brothers are still working on new material”. Which is also a great thing to read. But now the tone changed to something very much more definite: “an album is on its way”. I hope you can see the difference.

An album is on its way. I wouldn’t say nothing is happening.

Yes indeed.

No he didn’t, at least not publicly. I double checked: https://bocpages.org/wiki/Statements_from_Hexagon_Sun Maybe you had some DMs you didn’t share with us? ? Feel free to correct this and give some statements of his regarding LP5 I missed.

Fred’s someone who rues the whirl

some serious bachvibes

Cheers! Would love to hear this one day.

Harvest Moon, could've been not a shabby title tbh. ?

These two newly released track sound very cool! Especially “Angels Pharmacy” has a cool vibe going on. Play loud in your car.

Substances are NOT needed to enjoy, but rather add another dimension. You get to experience the music differently. Is all, yo. And I know: drugs r bad, m'kay.
