Ceri: yeah that's a sweet track at the beginning of Iced Cooly .. I liked it too, it leads in perfectly to the main track.
bill_hicks: yeah, calling everyone on here indescriminately 'plebs' is gonna make you some enemies, just be happy :D so you hate BoC. fine, don't diss us cuz our taste isn't as refined.

Agreed, we are all entitled to opinions - fine. some may find Geogaddi boring etc But to say something is "shit, pure
shit" shows a rather "uninspiring and derivative" mind dont you think Mr Hicks!!

That's such a lovely little gem of a tune, right at the end. The quiet bit before Iced Cooly is also cool, agreed. I love those little snippets, as long as they're part of bigger tracks (I hate it when BoC pass off 1min tracks as full tracks. Grr.)

Chris Ochre says: "(I hate it when BoC pass off 1min tracks as
full tracks. Grr.)" what, by simply giving them titles? come on. i remember reading some comment on a message board where somebody said BOC were ripping people off because there were 23 titles on geogaddi, of which about 11 were short 1minute tracks. hahaha, i mean, even without the short tracks the album would have been 12 tracks long, which is longer than the average album!!!
i personally think it's great that they attach importance to all the small tracks, and the titles being listed on the album just adds to the whole thing.
some people are just gagging to complain about everything!

BoC are meant to be listened to as albums... not individual songs... in my opinion at least... so, the smaller songs make more sense in the context of the whole album...
also, maybe I'm the only one, but I find Geogaddi to be a big step above MHTRTC... Geogaddi is just so much better imo...

Coloured CDs are available, they just tend to cost a bit more, and some older CD players (really old) cannot 'see' through the colour to play.
In all, there are three 'unlisted' tracks on Twoism; the one just before Iced Cooley, and the one just before Twoism, and then of course, 1986 Summer Fire.
I'm working on the trackname of the one that appears before Twoism - it's also part of 'Triangles and Rhombuses' on MHTRTC.
Geogaddi is a progression, an evolution of BOC's sound. I reckon their new material (due soon) will sound different, but still have that signature BOC sound.

I agree the Geogaddi is different, but still a very good album. It does keep the BoC sound though, defiantely.
As Ninja Tune say, "It's always changing and it's always the same."
I look forwards to their next release it'll be interesting to see which direction they move in (cringes at the thought of them doing hard trance, etc.)...

I'd personally like them to revisit some guitar-laden tracks like "Wouldn't You Like To Be Free?" in their newer work.
Geogaddi generated 4 years' worth of tracks, so we might be hearing the Geo sound for some time, unless BOC is releasing brand new material for the new release.

'wouldn't you like to be free?' is beautiful, loved it for a long time .. I desperately would like to hear the rest of the track and/or CD .. it's almost painful how rare those releases are. of course, if I were to hear it, it wouldn't be so alluring anymore.. what a paradox, or irony, or something..
