Does anyone know if Christ. is really one of the dudes from BOC? It sounds very similar, and there are many rumours... but who exactly is Christ... and also, is there any connection to Christmas Baubles? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he was in the original line-up of the band. he left before they found fame and fortune though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cool, thanks... and Christmas Baubles? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
christmas baubles, didn't they do a record with eu or something? eu rips boc off pretty effectively...well save for the one 7"... |

Jedi Christ |

|
|
not sure about christmas baubles |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
apparently he was just somebody who jammed with them at school (lots of other guys jammed with them in the band before they were properly 'boc') he's just ripping off their sound now and trying to cash in on the (vague) connection he has with them :-( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is he fuck ripping of their sound. he probably helped invent that fucking sound. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
LOL no he didn't |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and you would know....why? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there were around 14 different people over the years in boc, all of them just people that mike drafted in to the band to play bass or drums or whatever for local gigs. "chris h" was one of them. don't be fooled by his coat-tail riding record company press. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how do you know for sure that "chris h" is christ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chris h was given a credit on the original pressing of twoism out of courtesy - even though he actually didn't write anything on the LP. (he just happened to be playing keyboards with the band in the year leading up to that demo release and they credited him out of friendship. he never had any writing credits on any early boc releases because he wasn't actually a member of boc, any more than any of their other jamming pals. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
holy shit....where do you get all this information from??? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
from someone i work with who has known the band for years |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cool. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I always thought chris was one an integral part of the early evolution of the BoC sound. They're both wicked anyhow. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i like christ in general, even if the boc sound wasn't really a result of him at all...in my book, it's all right that he sounds related to them, because he is. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so are the "old tunes" real? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't think the new christ album can be dismissed as "cashing in". it sounds like genuinely quality stuff to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have some mp3's saying boards of canada - christ but its the pylonesque ep... i dont understand a fuck of it... boc are mysterious |

you are wrong for 2 reasons: 1. (from watmm) "Also, as some of you might know, Christ (Chris Horne) was affiliated with BOC at one point, even getting credit on the original Twoism EP, released in 1995. Numerous "rumours" and "stories" have circulated online regarding why he left Hexagon Sun, and some have accused him of riding on BOC's coattails with these recent releases. Let's set the record straight, as I got the answer directly from Hexagon Sun - first, Chris was drafted into the live band by Mike at high school around the late eighties, playing drums/guitar and so on, when the band was a four/five-piece. He had an on-off band relationship until around 1995, never actually writing any music or appearing on any of the demos or early releases, but was involved on Twoism. At the time he happened to be around during the studio sessions and was working on a techno demo on Mike's gear, so part of one of the songs was indeed written by Chris, allowing BOC to legitimately list three names on the cover art. He was left off the re-issue of Twoism was due to publishing contracts, nothing more (there goes the drama) :) Shortly after this, with Chris pursuing a deal with various dance labels (more the techno side of things) and Mike & Marcus heading in a more minimal hip-hoppy melodic direction, they inevitably stopped playing together. The big change came when SKAM asked BOC to produce a full-length, and Mike and Marcus had to concentrate on that. In spite of all this, they remain good mates to this day and still talk about collaborating somehow again in the future. The material Chris has produced recently is more in the BOC direction and increases the likelihood that they will work together in the future." 2. If you listen to the album it is undeniably a quality record, NOT a cash-in rip-off. Download it from slsk, listen, repent, then buy it. |
