-- -- Boards of Canada :: (Warp, CD/2LP) "...Less like chemists in a lab than like carpenters in a workshop, or gardeners living amongst what they have designed, grown, and cultivated, this album showcases Marcus and Michael at their best, creating a soundtrack to life in the countryside the likes of which has not been heard before..." -- -- :: Pietro Da Sacco, Managing Editor IGLOO Magazine :: Abstract Electronic Music Coverage PO Box 307, Corona CA. 92878 USA |

"Melodic elements and percussion are melded in a way that lends a sort of new-age irony to the work as a whole." HA HA!! these are the kind of reviews pitchforkmedia reviewers can point at and laugh. |

95% of reviews ive read in my life are either absolutely shite, or they dis whatever band it is, for a band to have a crappy review in a magazine is depressing (top 40 aside) |

EXCELLENT REVIEW!!! I agree 100% seriously that review was very nice. |

Early in the listening process, I formulated a sort of vision of the duo at work, in which I saw them through an early morning haze making sounds via methods that can't quite be articulated, a kind of stony process requiring more intuition than knowledge, where chords are correctly placed but aren't quite chords, and the importance of formal training is elided by sheer talent and virtuosity. Did they take a degree in sounding like a tosser or does it come naturally? |

The amount of cocksucking that goes on in threads like this would embarrass the most debauched Roman orgiasts. |

that reminds me of the (bbc?) cricket reporter that flipped out with nonsensical coverage. he was a hero. |

Woooah, back up back up " Immediately upon receipt of The Campfire Headphase, Boards of Canada's latest opus, I got right to work. The iPod was loaded, groceries procured..." The iPod??? So they didn't listen to it on 180g vinyl in a sound proof chamber? How dare they review an mp3????? THEY'VE HEARD NOTHING!!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well maybe they had the sound proof chamber but no vinyl. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
does thou not know, brother? after the Procuring Of The Groceries cometh the Listening Of The iPod! |
||||||||

My review: A step in the wrong direction for sure. The devil is no longer in the details in BOC's music. I was hoping for a more experimental album, but BOC makes their contribution to the genre "Cappuchino Chill Out". Even my ganny can play this record as background music, without knowing it. Anyway.Some nice melodies makes this album fairly good, but wtf, this IS Boards of Canada, and I expected more. 6.7 on the Pitchfork scale. |

They're brothers!! |
