Berk Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I tried boc a couple of times, but it never really clicked. which tracks should I absolutely check out? Spoiler not trolling here, i'm serious. i was hoping this could fly in the bocforums. bocbocboc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzkinz Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I'm certain people will say I'm insane for leaving out <insert their favorite>, but I feel like these are the absolute "essentials": An Eagle In Your Mind Telephasic Workshop Music Is Math 1969 Alpha and Omega 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markedone Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 imo theyre an album band.. just pick any album really (geogaddi is universally revered) and focus on that. but since you asked, here is a cherry pick of a couple random excellent tracks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably a really good point if you could tell some of your favorite artists/songs, it may be easier to suggest songs which might click with you more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennylogg Bubblebath Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) like someone else suggested, check out one of their albums instead. mhtrtc and geogaddi seem to be the general favourites, so maybe pick one of those and run with it. but in all fairness, you can't go wrong with any starting point. they have one of the most consistent discographies i've heard. even the EPs are all really really good. which could be why it takes them a fucking eternity to release anything lol Edited December 4, 2020 by Kennylogg Bubblebath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KovalainenFanBoy Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 I suggest you listen to the 50 hours of BoC ripoffs on the Touched compilations first in order to appreciate proper BoC later on 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berk Posted December 12, 2020 Author Share Posted December 12, 2020 Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I liked a few tracks so far: sixtyniner and amo bishop roden (i remembered that last one). but there's something so lackluster about their sound. I cannot get past it, it's not appealing to me.

Why are you trying to make us make you like them? For you to not like BoC is definitely the twisted brain wrong of a one-off man mental but that's OK.

Alien Sugar Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Hello berk! BoC are good for all moods. When i wanna relax and i'm alone in peace and quiet i listen to these songs. They are fairly long songs, but i put them on repeat and listen when i have time. 1.) Corsair 2.) Open The Light 3.) Tears From The Compound Eye 4.) Farewell Fire - I love this one but i don't like how it ends, the fade out lasts too long but it's good if you wanna listen to go to sleep. 5.) Semena Mertvykh When i really wanna jam BoC i always play this song... 1.) BoC - Live 2.) Eagle In Your Mind 3.) Telephasic Workshop 4.) Come To Dust 5.) Cold Earth 6.) Hi Scores 7.) June 9th 8.) Reach For The Dead When i eat lots of butter and load my cofee with fat free cream. 1.) Sick Times 2.) Iced Cooly 3.) Everything You Do Is A Baloon 4.) You Could Feel The Sky Haff a nice day. Spade jamu fun grab a cheer biggle. You'll now now a mack too swan. Spaech! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milkface Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I've always loved Aquarius but recently it's been hitting differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendly Stranger Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Aquarius is so, so good! I keep coming back to the Good Friday remix lately, I don't know why. I think it's the ~2 min. "outro" with the drums, it's hypnotic. Always been a fan but like milkface says about Aquarius, it's just hitting different lately. It's zenning me out in a big way.
