Uh yes they did state that the gap between albums would be shorter. Either them or a direct connection to HS has said this. I've read through almost every english or english translated interview so the quote would be a bugger to find again. Can anyone else that has read that interview back me up on this ?

I remember reading the gaps between albums would be shorter but only from (maybe?) moderators here and most probably Joyrex on watmm. Dunno could be wrong.

Seems like Soundcloud is about to go under for good, one last time for posterity:

10 - Palace Posy
11 - Split Your Infinities
17 - Semena Mertvykh
2 - Reach for the Dead

---

14 - Sundown

Alternately, G is the 7th letter of the alphabet, U is the 21st.

A
U - Uritual (21)
G - Gemini (7)
U - Uritual (21)
S - Sundown (Track 14)
T - Transmisiones Ferox (Track 7)

They are all multiples of 7 and add up to 70, the same way the old cosecha-transmisiones.com console timestamp (02:57) multiplied to 70 (2x(5x7))

Speaking of that timestamp, we will reach the 21st anniversary of that date on the evening of the eclipse (22-AUG-1996 02:57)

Even for someone who is rather skeptical the connection seems to be interesting. Hints towards solar events combined with the fact the anniversary is on the evening of the Eclipse. Just out of curiosity, do you know if the solar eclipses path will be going over the Mojave desert i.e Lake Dolores ?

It will be viewable as a partial eclipse from there. Lake Dolores is roughly between Los Angeles and Las Vegas so these might provide an idea of when it would be viewable from there:

I like how my city's peak and end are all the same numbers:

I'm not sure if Lake Dolores would really play into it, the most obvious thing to do would be to literally announce it at 02:57 UTC that night but who knows.

I remember we were looking at the Coescha date/time hard last year, it's funny that we're back to the same place a year later armed with a lot more data that backs it up this time.

If you look at it the right way, it's almost too obvious and would make a great final red herring, so I won't be too disappointed if it passes without incident.

If we need a 21 and a 168, November 10th -> December 14th works just as well as August 21st -> October 11th. December 14th is cool because it actually combines last year and this year's sequence into one date.

The only thing the eclipse theory has going for it is that 9/9 would be a logical date to drop a new single/video, putting a nice bookend to things starting on 6/6 last year.

I do think it's a cool coincidence that Mogwai's new album has an eclipse on the cover, and this all started with them liking a post from them last year.

Did something there change recently? Or are you pointing out that it's down? Last I knew, It's been down for quite awhile...doesn't mean that it isn't weird that the night of the eclipse just happens to be exactly 21 years after the year that was listed on the console, especially with all the relevant dates this year being multiples of 7.

More fuel for the eclipse theory. The Mr. Mistake instrumental was released on February 17th this year, the vinyl was released on July 21st. All the same numbers.

2/17
7/21

Let's apply the same idea elsewhere. Two different tweets last year had timestamps ending in :57. each separated by 4 hours. Let's treat the 8/24 tweet as a guide to the hours (8, 4, 2) and then simply reverse the datestamp of the December 8th tweet to get August 21st with a timestamp of 2:57am,

8/24 - 8:57am
12/8 - 4:57am

8/21 - 2:57am

8/21, 8/22? Who knows, but it has potential to be an interesting 24 hours next week, what's happening in the sky aside.

Don't mean to be rude, but I'd rather BoC concentrate their efforts on the music. That would be a lot more fucking interesting imo.

Good news, I'm sure this was all hashed out over a year ago. Probably not too difficult or time consuming if you're the people cooking it up.

@ opothecary. You should get a reward of some sort. When they release, they should call you first and let you celebrate for five minutes before shooting their audiogun at the world again.

if not august, oktober or november , 2020 02 02 would be too obvious and too long from now. But it will be a succesfull weddingday...
whooosh

Man, those guys have us trained so well that 2020 doesn't seem unrealistic to people. Or the people that think we'll only get an EP next.

for context^^

Also, I find it interesting that Semena Mertvykh transitions into Dayvan Cowboy on the EP "Trans Canada Highway" -- if you look at your (alphabetically arranged) BoC albums in iTunes.

The Dayvan Cowboy "official" BoC video (in my mind) pairs with the "tsunami picture." :lol:
