Now, I know I should take some of my own medicine and not compare these 2 albums, but its only recently i've got into the boards. I got geogaddi first without hearing anything and REALLY got into the album and I love it, how everytime you listen to it you spot another sound, and then it takes another few listens to work out what it is! Anyway, I got MHTRTC about 4 weeks ago and its been exam time, so i've been doing some heavy music listening. Now, I was already into the album before all the exess listening to i've found that MHTRTC has been getting put into my cd player FAR more than geogaddi. I've been going to bed listening to MHTRTC on headphones and only as far as I can remember played geogaddi once. I thought this may be interesting since i've been one of the few people to listen to them backwards so to speak, so i've been lessed biased in my opinions to the new stuff, but I really think geogaddi is not as good. |

obviously, b3n, music has the right to children is better than geogaddi! |
||||||||

for christ sakes marlowe, call me ben! and yes, it is! "ORANGE!" "yeeeeeeah, that's right" |
||||||||

i like mhtcr better, mainly 'cause of aquarius, which is my fav boc track. geogaddi is a bit boring imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree heartily. geogaddi is still a great album. i don't really know why though MHTRTC is better. i suppose it has more 'hits' on i.e. it has aquarius, roygbiv, telephasic workshop and eagle of the mind (or whatever). i don't think thats it though. i like the whole album more...dunno |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
i`ve tried to listen to geogaddi a couple of times. I justfound it pretty crap. mhtrtc is a great album though |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
geogaddi would be good for a fucking insomniac am i right guys? am i? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I would have to say MHTRTC is a little bit better. I mean I don't think there's a song on their I don't like. Then again Geogaddi is really good too, 1969, Dawn Chorus, and You Could Feel the Sky are real gems. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i'm not saying geogaddi isn't good, dawn chorus is brilliant |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mhtrtc is way better imo. it contains a lot more "stronger" tracks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
to me, geogaddi has a more constant feeling and atmosphere to it. It creeps me the fuck out but its beautiful at the same time. I dont have this with MHTRTC but i love that album too, especially because of roygbiv and aquarius. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for me its An Eagle in your mind, Sixtyten, roygbiv, rue the whirl, aquarius, pete standing alone, smokes quantity and happy cycling VS. Music is math, 1969, the beach at redpoint, gyroscope, and dawn chorus. I wouldnt say the tracks are better on one or the other, but there are a lot more of the good ones on mhtrtc. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
geogaddi is better by far. what a ride. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
geogaddi is a far far supieror album. everyone i know in person agrees with person. .. but for some reason people on this board like mhtrtoch better.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I totally agree, Geogaddi seems to hold me in throughout the entire album, and flows really well track to track I don't know which is better, but I definetly listen to Geogaddi alot more |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i still need buy geogaddi, i have yet to do so because I want the special edition one but its hard to find and more expensive. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's not much better either, just a little more of the artwork which isn't really anything special, the music is what's special |
||||||||

Yesterday I would have said MHTRTC, but know I say Geogaddi. It's damn trippy... |

Music Has The Right To Children. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Music Has the Right to Children kicks Geogaddi's ass. Not to say Geogaddi isn't great, but I frankly think MHTRTC is their peak, they won't top it ever. |
||||||||

um, maybe its just me, but most BoC I find just boring, not very interesting. Although I prolly havent listened enough to them. I mean, I like some of their pieces. And their little melodies or whatever (like Beautiful house in country, and roygboiv). But any further than the idea that the music is just mellow, kind of atmosphereic texture and feeling, I can't really draw myself to be stimulated very much. But perhaps I havent given them a proper chance. I enjoy Ae much better. Although it can be much of the same idea. Although I have to admit, their latest album release does test one's tolerance and patience in appreciating the "musical" nature of it. Which I do feel exists quite strongly. But is not doubt challenging. I dont know that I understand exactly that type of music yet. If you can call it that. Confield that is. |

I always skip the colour of fire and sixtyten mind, I can't listen to those.. don't ask me why |

Geogaddi is amazing, MHTRTC is amazinger... just by a little bit I guess... I love both, and sometimes I want one while other times I want th other, but overall I must give the edge to MHTRTC... there's just something about it!!! |
||||||||
|

If you read the new Grooves, BoC talk about how when making Geo they were trying to sound like they did before MHTRTC, and it does, it's very raw and super subliminal, but if you listen to ABPOITC, it totally is a progression from MHTRTC. and as for BoC being boring, you're not listening hard enough!

MHTRTC > Geogaddi BUT, both are amazing |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
ben, you just named two of my favorite tracks from mhtrtc! kryocera, you're probably listening too hard. much of boc's appeal is on the subconscious level. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
MHTRTC!! excellent tracks there!! i heard it after Geogaddi.... Geogaddi is great for lying out in da sun though :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love Sixtyten. When that beat drops in, it's the best. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, Sixtyten is great... I used to think it was BoC's worst song for ages, but I like it a lot now... just took me a while to get into... The Colour of Fire is cool... I get this weird image of a stalker looking through some bushes at the kid he's stalking when I hear this song... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nene, if by subconscious you mean falling asleep! jk, yeah, yeah I know, I know, thats kinda what I was getting at. I guess I just need my ziggomatic to keep my mind stimulated sometimes. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
MHTRTC>geogaddi both amazing i agree 100% |

"ben, you just named two of my favorite tracks from mhtrtc! kryocera, you're probably listening too hard. much of boc's appeal is on the subconscious level." yeah I know what you mean, its just those are the only two tracks I got on mp3, and I had them for ages and listened to them loads. I think I just overdid it |

U know, not that my opinion matters to anyone...MHTRTC and Geogaddi are unique in different ways...Music was the first Boc album i bought, but the E.P. A beuatiful place out in the country is what hooked me...i know it just has variations on the songs Olson and stuff, but that's what really got me into BOC. One thing i dislike about their music is sometimes its too short, i end up looping it in my editor and then reburning the tracks so they last longer...and then there are those tracks that u have to skip, like that Volcano thing on geogaddi, i hate that thing. All in all BOC rules, and to each album there are up's and downs, and different styles. I'm soooooooo sick of seeing this debate up here. I like both, i like geogaddi better than MHTRTC, cuz the songs are a bit longer...but i like MHTRTC cuz the songs make logical sense and have a different flow from eachother |

MHTRTC is a VERY special album. A proper "desert island disk". Geogaddi is merely very good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
YEAH |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they're 2 different albums... geogaddi is totally unconventional music. and music has the right to children is something more 'normal'. I like both. mut i enjoy MHTRTC more |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you said it, 'OK'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"A beuatiful place out in the country is what hooked me...i know it just has variations on the songs Olson and stuff, but that's what really got me into BOC. " What? ABPOITC is just variations on Olsen and stuff? Where do you get this? ABPOITC is nothing like MHTRTC imo... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its not based on Olsen funkman dont worry. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

hehe, ok... I didn't think so... :) |
