Seriously, guys, it's been 4 years since your last release and almost 5 years since your last LP. I'm eager to hear something new come out from what I might consider to be my favorite band.
BOC has changed my life in profound ways. No other artist has been more inspiring or more challenging to the way I think. Please guys! Your fans want more! And they also want to see you live for Christ's sake! We love you!!!

If BOC doesn't release a record soon, I'll fly out to Scotland myself, drive deep out into their psychedelic devil-worshipping Koresh-obsessed religious community out in the country and... ask them kindly to make another record.... YOU HEARD ME BOC! DON'T MAKE ME DO THIS!

BOC's last few albums weren't any good. It took them ten years to make MHTRTC, and only a few years each for the other two. If it takes them ten years, I would rather have another MHTRTC than 30 different albums like the later stuff. Let them take all the time in the world as far as I am concerned.

I highly disagree with Taxidermist. I love all of BOC's albums pretty equally. For most of my life, I considered Geogaddi to be my favorite BOC album, but now I love them all.

BoC's music is timeless... I hardly even consider it "IDM".
I hope they release something new, later if not sooner.

Since you have put it that way, there are about 3200 other mediocre BOC clones out there that are making music equal to or better than their last two albums. Spend a little time on google and you will find it. A good place to start is Tycho.

I find Tycho to be a cheap BOC knockoff. I find it nearly blasphemous to say that it's better than BOC.
Ochre doesn't really sound like BOC, but I love Ochre.

Geogaddi is a masterpiece. And if you give it some time, TCH is a masterpiece too.
They both have their own unique spin on the BOC world, and tycho? lol please.

Yeah Campfire Headphase took a long time for me to understand and appreciate, but now I consider almost on par with Geogaddi and MHTRTC. Twoism is awesome too. Hi Scores EP is amazing (everything you do is a balloon is probably my favorite BOC song).

Tycho is a cheap BOC knockoff. Its still better than the last two full length albums by BOC. I would rather listen to good knockoffs than mediocre originals.

Well since this is a matter of subjective taste, I'm not going to argue with you. Try saying stuff like "I'm just not into Geogaddi and Campfire Headphase" instead of stating it like it's a fact and you might sound less like a snob. You sound like a pitchfork review.

Geogaddi is the best. How can anyone be a hater? Unbelievable.
As for IDM... Were BoC ever really IDM anyway? I mean it's a bit of a loose term but they don't sound a damn thing like ae or afx or whatever else got passed off as "IDM". No glitchin or out-of-time whackness of whatever... Just warm noodly keyboards and friendly loping beats

I don't like one of their albums so you shouldn't like that one either.
Yes. BOC are IDM.
Do Pitchfork even still exist? lol
BOC have just read this and have started a new album for you. I'll be released in 2020. [Thank your lucky stars they aren't signed to Rephlex or it would be limited to 2 copies, one in the centre of the sun and the other smashed into a million pieces and scattered over the moon.]
I hear Warp have just signed Bros... I would be ok with this but I don't like their acoustic stuff. :(

You know, thats one of those things I hated most about the new albums. The withered effect sounded natural on everything before Geogaddi. Geogaddi onward it sounded like they ran it through a cheap tape modelling plugin.

i never liked too much geogaddi, neither, its my last boc favourite,
its sounds stressfull and disperse to me, when boc means comfortable and warm... still some interesting tunes and amazing ideas in there, but the overall sound its just no no
in the other hand, i think tch is a fucking great album, when the official xlt position is to hate it, so maybe im not a proper boc fan...

Stickudrosera: I think what Taxidermist was getting at is that MHTRTC was their masterpiece. If you've head all the old tunes volumes floating around, you can see their style refined and perfected for MHTRTC over the course of a decade and some.
He is right that the other albums took way less time to produce, and even conceptualize. While I love Geogaddi, I'd still side with Tax that it doesn't have the same amount of time and love that MHTRTC did.
A new album would be nice. There is a planned release of their old material in a boxset but it's been on hold for quite some time now.

Yeah, thats right about what I meant. Then I got called a pitchfork review, and decided to bait people a bit, which is kind of my bad.
The last two albums weren't really bad. They just weren't amazing like mhtrtc. I would rather wait ten years and have another album like it, then a bag of geogaddis or campfire headphases.
