I've turned into a massive fanboy over this album in the last few days. This album has quite an overt message to it that seems to totally drown out the crappy half-imagined, paranoid cult stuff that people thought they could hear in older BoC albums. Also I don't see the connection to Geogaddi - I feel that this album is way, way darker and far removed from any older work. The track titles all clearly reference some kind of civilisational collapse. In interviews they talk about getting more political, and hint at concerns about population and corrupt political-business elites that have hijacked the directional course of civilization. Their examples of influences include people such as the author of the Long Emergency. We can probably add Albert Jacquard to that list thanks to a track title. In they stress that they`re not hippies - given their clear interest in remote, secluded living and having ruled out hippies, that suggests to me that their mindset is more survivalist. And then they say that it'd all be worth it if they inspire people to change. So, what do they hope we will do? Protest against oil companies, environmental damage, shady globalisational trade deals? Learn to grow our own food again? Pioneer a sustainable future? |

Or maybe I should just go and join twoism.org with all the other basement-dwellers? |

It sounds much better on headphones than through speakers. The mix is weird and flat. It is sooo bleak and dystopian. |

I always had a feeling the titles (especially the album title) could possible reflect something related to Monsanto. |

Listen to Tomorrow's Harvest and Atari Teenage Riot albums for the ultimate underground call to arms. |
