I actually made an effort and sat down and tried to listen to this album all the way through because so many of you consider it to be the ultimate BoC release. Never have I felt that the time spent litening to a CD has been a bigger waste. Predictable, Repetitive and utterly unengaging. My hate for BoC's music went up a few more notches. |

I've given them quite a few chances. They're just too fucking dull for me. The really old stuff is the only thing that I can get anything out of, but I don't even listen to that very often. |

mhtrtc is a huge album you shall give it more chances |

mhtrtc is one of the best albums so far. tunes like an eagle in your mind, roygbiv, pete standing alone, bocuma kaini industries are superb. i don't like geogaddi so much though. |

I haven't really ever jumped at the thought or mention of Boards of Canada. I've given them a few chances myself, and I agree, they're just too....lifeless. Uninteresting. Just my opinion, though, but it's surprising because I always tend to have an open mind about new artists, and new music. Ahh well, if I find a cheap boc release one day I might just pick it up. But until then, I continue making my way through Autechre's superb discography with each release. |

hehe....my latest hobby. :) I think for Christmas I'll ask for Feed Me Weird Things (I need more []< and for some reason I never end up getting any), and maybe LP5. Yay! |

"Music has the right" is pretty engaging if you ask me. What seemed repetitive to me at first unveiled numerous layers after additional listens. I didn't have the patience to sit down and listen to the whole thing at first. Instead, I got hooked on Roygbv and would start the album from that track, skipping the beginning. Now i like the whole but it took a while for me to break it in. I hate to say it, but the key for me was listening to it while stoned. I guess that if you aren't into the qualities of their sound I could see how it might become annoying, however I think you might want to try listening to it again. It's pretty intense when you give it a chance. But what the fuck do I know, I'm just a big stoner. |

If you're approaching BoC from the typical IDM perspective and evaulting it by that criteria, it's probably not gonna measure up. They have a very different focus than your run of the mill IDMmer. It's not to say it's devoid of those elements.. but I seriously do think there's more to the side of melodic subtleties and nostalgia. It's repetetive at times, but not unjustifiably so. If this isn't your thing, then that's that. That's why there's Aphex Twin. |

This is probably in my top 3 favorite albums of all time. If you asked me to pick three to take with me to a desert island, this would be one of them. The entire album is like a mine-field, with tiny little hooks and details that just make you love each song. The little synth flourish that comes in once during roygbiv makes me absolutely giddy. |

oh, i haven't listened to this in a really really long time...it's good from what i can remember though. |
