campfire potphase came out along with prodigy's always outnumbered, never outgunned. with both albums, only one or two tracks stuck with me; rest was meh.
prodigy came back with invaders must die, which i liked much more. does this mean i'll like new BOC much more? or have they fallen out of sync with prodigy, since prodigy is gearing up to release a third post-career album?

Sorry, TCH was BoC best album from start to finish. I might like some of their older work more, but as far as a complete album goes it's there best.

i actually can't think of much wrong with TCH other than that it was boring shite from start to finish. excellent textures and production, great video for dayvan cowboy (the only track i actually remember, a year or three after giving up on the album). might give it another spin for you, though, sweetie.

im with revpersona here (and with skink too). ive never understood how can someone not love TCH, but theres lots of peoples (and comments) saying it sucks, when for me is one of the most beautiful albums ive got at home...
i hope new harvest is going to be an step forward from there, and they keep on the lighting and new sound experimentation...

TCH is a mature blend of nostalgia and nature. It drifts a bit away from the hazy trippy BOC, and more into warmth, guitar and groove. It's not my favorite album of BOC, but it's definitely not the worst album in my music-collection! I can put on '84 Pontiac Dream and Slow This Bird Down any day of the week, and be happy about it.

TCH lost all the edge of MHTRTC and geogaddi. It lacked the dark psychedelic core that the earlier albums possessed. Here's hoping Tomorrow's Harvest sounds completely different.

agree, it doesn't have that same moodiness and menace. i don't like the guitar either; they did better with old VHS samples.
i simply found TCH pleasant but unmemorable, like taking some ambien or something. dayvan cowboy makes me happy like roygbiv. the rest of it ironically sounds like... stock music. needs a rue the whirl and some aquarius to re-core the dark psychedelia in my life.

Imagine if BOC started doing hip hop with drum n' bass backing. Then everyone would complain that the hip hop wasn't urban-ambient enough.

amazing how fast the hype deflated once the "mystery" was solved.... then new daft punk buries it properly... haven't heard a peep about BOC on xlt in a week or two. maybe they should have done this a month later than they did?

YES! At least one track that's going to sound better than TCH. Let's hope some of that ol' edge has come back on the rest of the album. My heart is in my pants and my thumbs are all swollen now with the anticipation

the noises in the video off the web site sounded promising, i too am hopeful this one will be proper.
i'd watch the video combo linked, but it's a wavy cameraphone video with people yelling.

not but a week or two ago i was tricked by listening to shit rips of the new daft punk album. now i've doubled down on my policy of not hearing new stuff over shit camera videos or photocopied preview streams, because they invariably ruin it.

there may be 'echoes' of geogaddi, but mostly i think it's just because it's structurally similar in how boc develops their music.

Just saw the video and my initial reaction is that the song is actully pretty good. Much better than that Campfire bullshit 8 years ago. The video itself is pretty underwhelming. It seems like they blew their budget on the last sequence that starts @ the 3:27 mark and had to use b-roll for filler.

Better than THC. That's all I'm hanging onto for now, since this track didn't knock me for 6. It moreso prodded me for 3

Already better than TCH. Unlikely to topple Twoism/MHTRTC, but this could be on a par with Geogaddi if the stuff so far is anything to go on. This is the first release I've been this excited about in years.
