I've found that this album sounds better when I imagine it is the soundtrack to a horror movie (not one with lots of zombies and blood, rather with strange things happening and mystery) or perhaps a catastrophy movie (like one with a nuclear disaster). Let's say it could be a movie by Dario Argento, like "Suspiria".
Also it's better at night. The later in the night I listen to it, the better it is.

I listened to it in its entirety yesterday lying out in the sun watching a tree blowing in the wind, wearing a BoC tshirt.

lol at ceri
honestly for me the first time i heard it was lying down, eyes shut in a [stoned] half asleep state. That was the best i experienced it. I like albums that you can go to bed with in general, not ones that put you to sleep

Listen to it on 5 grams of hash, 2 tabs of LSD, in the forest, at sunset, naked and covered in hundreds of mosquitoes. Make sure to bring a photo of someone you miss, a toy from childhood, and a porno mag.
THAT SHIT TRIP YOU OUT!!!!!

I don't have it yet, but when I do, I will listen to it while watering my vegetables and fruits in the garden. If the album is long enough I might also masturbate to the last few tracks

Well they did mention in the Guardian interview that it referred to a soundtrack to an 80's VHS film, and, I agree, if you bear that in mind, it does conjure up a pretty convincing eco-disaster / apocalyptic / strangeness filmic atmos.
It makes me think of (the original) Dawn of the Dead, and that sort of atmosphere. Light moments within the overall dread and the end of the world .

Which bit of Denmark are you in? I am in Ballerup, near Copenhagen, reasonably regularly for work. Would be cool to meet for a beer next time.

I'm in Odense now, but moving to CPH within months. It's no problem for me to come to Sjælland for a visit (unemployed music-bum). Maybe if there's a cool electro-thing going on we could meet up? mail me at steven@stvn.net and we can exchange info.

Ready up the album, hit the bong hard, turn off the lights and lie down. Profit.

What if no album, no weed/bong, the lights always stay on, and no bed? I guess... LOSE MONEY.

Only just heard it yesterday eve for first time. It's way gloomier than I expected. I get all the Soylent Green-style vibes that people keep mentioning (or am I just impressionable?)
So: Best way to enjoy it would be to listen to it while reading something a book that's really Malthusian or about a nuclear winter or climate change or some shizz yo.
Actually that might just be scary. Don't do it.

so far this album best works for me as single tracks from it dropping now and then, here and there, on my mp3 player while moving around my town, with mountains in the background. TH is mixed with other albums in playlist and it's nice when a boc track comes in between an exai or a MHTRTC track.
it doesn't work that well in being-in-my-flat situation. maybe except for the morning coffee and looking out the window moment.
