Keep in mind sometimes early leaks are unmastered. Two examples I can think of are Authechre:Untilted and Radiohead:Hail to the Thief. There were leaked versions of both of these and they didn't really sound so hot, especially the Autechre one. When they actually came out fully mastered though they sounded 5000x better.
This being sent I haven't heard the BoC leak but just consider the amount of time it would take someone to make a whole album and make it authentic enough to pass off. I one were to go to that trouble, why wouldn't they just release it as their own album.
THAT being said .. there are some dedicated loons in the world

I officially have to bring this thread back since its now out...
OMG ITS AMAZING
First listen review :
- not much filler tracks (thats a good and bad thing) - not much detuning - acoutis guitars everywhere!!! - Dayvan Cowboy - not much voices (perhaps the limitation of 192kbps) - did I say DAYVAN COWBOY!! - The last track has a long silence, but there's something in that silence ;)
- There's violins on Dayvan Cowboy! it feels almost post-rock with this buildup.
- There's no crazy drum sounds like on Geogaddi that throw you off, its very much all in the same mood
Great!

All our times have come Here but now they're gone Seasons don't fear the reaper Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain..we can be like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper Baby I'm your man...
Valentine is done Here but now they're gone Romeo and Juliet Are together in eternity...Romeo and Juliet 40,000 men and women everyday...Like Romeo and Juliet 40,000 men and women everyday...Redefine happiness Another 40,000 coming everyday...We can be like they are Come on baby...don't fear the reaper Baby take my hand...don't fear the reaper We'll be able to fly...don't fear the reaper Baby I'm your man...
Love of two is one Here but now they're gone Came the last night of sadness And it was clear she couldn't go on Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew then disappeared The curtains flew then he appeared...saying don't be afraid Come on baby...and she had no fear And she ran to him...then they started to fly They looked backward and said goodby...she had become like they are
She had taken his hand...she had become like they are Come on baby...don't fear the reaper

I don't like it because of the acoustic instruments.. it s not that special anymore then their previews releases.. it s more acessible for the masses! fits well into the new warp policy thus..
I m dissapointed because I didn't expect this but its fucking good produced stuff anyway, not crap like some here named it

i like it, its pretty good... i'm not one to judge too hastily but its a bit on the dandy/happy side for me... then again boc has always fealt like that to me, with some really stand out tracks on the albums.... i'm thankful for this album solely because of "Peacock Tail"... that is an awesome track.

Don't get me wrong, it's nice music, but this new one is as good as those at the very least.

Someone just pasted this review (w/o attribution) on slsk #idm, and I happen to agree absolutely:
[microphex] oh and to quote "I don't see how anyone can say this is their best album. I've been a big boc fan for years, but this is a pretty big disapointment. As feared, things like Dayvan Cowboy tread dangerously close to some sort of adult contemporary new age. I keep waiting for beats to drop that never come. The album never really seems to take off, it sounds stuck in some kind of hole it can't dig itself out of. The addition of more guitars seems to add little to their already established sound. What's missing most of all the is the magic, the stunning tracks that build and build. Instead you have a bunch of tracks that just sort of plod along, most sounding pretty much the same. Peacock Tail and Oscar See Through Red Eye are the only ones that leave something of an impression, but even these pale in comparison to their best tracks. It seems there's enough material for a fair EP in all this, but certainly not an album at the level we have come to expect from Boc."
