I like it alot, but still like MHTRC and Hi-Scores Ep better. However, I am also still awaiting Boc's "Perfect" album, which will blow everything out of the water.

It's a very focused cd and doesn't take you anywhere much. I find that on MHTRTC as well. That's the only problem with BoC. I'd leave it. I can bring myself to recommend it. Dl Gyroscope. Wicked sweet track.

Yeah, the ''perfect album'' bullshit is just... uh... bullshit! It's nowhere near perfect... but it's damn good. I still like Music Has the Right to Children a lot more, though.

20 quid thinly spread over 3 discs is taking the piss. just because I buy vinyl doesn't mean I have twice as much money as someone who buys cds. actually more like half as much.

i fell in love with geogaddi the first time i sat down and listened to the whole thing from start to finish. I think its like a movie, it doesnt make sense unless you watch in chronologically.
So, when you have a chance, set the mood, turn on a black light, and put on geogaddi.

It differs from Music Has the Right to Children in that it's not as simplistic. I think a lot of people expected Geogaddi to be Music Has the Right to Children 2 -which it definately is not.
Anyway, if you want to get an impression of what the album sounds like before you decide to buy it, I'd say try downloading these songs:
Music is Math Gyroscope (Boom chidleladap Boom chidleladap) Julie and Candy Personally, I think it's a really good album.. Like Clobe said, you've got to give it time to sink it.

Don't forget 1969. I know its kinda cheesy, but its also, like, one of the best songs I have heard in ages.
Geogaddi is awesome. I really like it. Altho BoC never claimed it to be anywhere near a perfect album.

I love geogaddi for all the reasons it is not MHTRTC and what not.. and vice versa, so I guess you could say I love all their stuff for what it is.

I think we should start a cult baised around BoC's music. We should practice Jesus, and BoC, and polygamy.

I initially was uncertain with Geogaddi but I'm strangely drawn into it time and time again. Just like MHTRTC it has a few fillers, but how can anyone overlook the musical beauty of Sunshine Recorder?

oh comon, Geogaddi is simply exquisite. It's beautiful, moody, warm and highly loveable music. It stands next to Music has the Right.. as a proud, younger brother. It most certainly isn't IDM indeed, and anything BUT disappointing to me. The only reason I can imagine anyone giving it 'just' three stars is it isn't revolutionary.
Otherwise, it's not perfect but pretty perfect nevertheless.
Most definitely my favourite release of the year so far.

Diego; shouldn't you be out spreading doom and such? Telling people why they need to feel sorry for themselves, and should wallow in self pitty. Shouldn't you be telling us we are stupid? Not that this or that album is good or great?
I think your picture obligates you to at least 5 minutes of curmudgeonry for every hour online.
