Here you go. Also for anybody else who's a bit of a nerdy obsessive like me, I've tagged them up so that they're titled and ordered by where the code is in the set of 6.

Greetings all!
It's my first post here... I've lurked a little, but I think I'll be here for a while now!
I'm not one for big introductions, so I'll cut right to the chase.

Is anyone else bothering to check out the announcement video for further messages, clues, etc? I see a few (very blurry) things when watching frame by frame. The noise sounds a little bit like data in places too... just tossing ideas around to see if there is some further puzzle/story/etc.

Presently you'll find me in the IRC most of the time. Send me a message!

Thanks to everyone for the fun this last week has bought. I haven't laughed so damn hard in a long while!! Really looking forward to album too! Keen for some more ARG shenanigans tho

and what's with the tradica poster here from reddit posting links like this http://imgur.com/a/DgqII after the announcement today, and saying it's not over yet, etc...

joyrex was doing his typical hint shit over the possibility that the TH album cover is a video still

The number adventure is certainly over. Have a look at the 2nd and 3rd images in that link. I believe they are the same location.

I have to say I'm not convinced. I've driven past that huge aerial at Exmouth, and it is spectacular, but it is for communicating with submarines, rather than BoC fans.

Good times on IRC, here's another bit of pixel chaos. I doubt the location is a match, but it is similar. Google Map http://goo.gl/1dkTY

To think I was about to do some morse code on all the numbers. Would have fried my brain

[m_thomp]

Can I just chip in and thank all you guys for cracking the code. This last week or so has been a blast seeing news of the new album unfold. Although, your progress was a little too quick for me on occasion: I’d wake up in the morning and see at least 10 new pages-worth of updates, which, with work, no smart phone and a newish born baby at home, makes it quite difficult to keep on top of!

Was pleased with how it ended. With all these numbers, codes and having to tap them into a computer, I was reminded of Lost. I was praying to God that this didn’t resolve itself in the same way as that shitfest.

hmm should I risk taking the day off work, slim chance of getting my hands on it if I do, and if its not a big wind up by the store.

Few thousand in the bank account would be nice .

Hey guys. I put together an Unofficial BoC ------/------/------/------/------/------ Album. It's a zip file of 9 tracks. All the clues in the best quality I could find, in Mp3 format. I leveled all the volumes about the same. The original AAAA and BBBB wavs form the banner clue are in there too (I was one who got the OG quick DL's). Also the final Tomorrow's Harvest Transmission. All in the order they were given to us. In anyone wants it, here's the DL link: http://www.mediafire.com/?kqofjosck1mrjrj

I put this on a couple threads so everyone sees

Top Yardie Creek Road Australia?

No one will let you onto a naval base, but the road sign where you stop is what matters. Is there graffiti on the back of it, or nearby?
Someone is closer to Langley Wood so we're hoping to see that one first.

VLF transmissions are very interesting, and somewhat relevant aesthetically but that won't be the frequency we tune into. Latest bets are that it's either a stream of the new record that you can hear early if you crack it, or it's that long lost acoustic version of MHTRTC (which would fit the way the track titles correspond to the locations). Personally, I like the idea of a crispy clean record (which might be why they shelved it) broadcast over short-wave so you have all the lovely crackles and whistlers to complement it. But if nothing else, some very interesting reading is coming from this.

It's probably a dead horse spray painted in the same blue found at the Yermo bathroom.

I'm guessing this is ending up with some loaded celebrity fan. Peter Serafinowicz perhaps?

That has got to be a ruse! - crazy people!!

I may have found something in the number.

I noticed that there are no zeroes:

699742628315717228936557813386519225

So it could be a base-9 code. So I subtracted one from each digit to make it base-9 compatible:

588631517204606117825446702275408114

I then converted it to base-36, which contains all 26 letters (plus digits 0-9). I used Wolfram Alpha to convert using the following query:

convert 588631517204606117825446702275408114 base 9 to base 36

The result (hiding block form) is:

v6v0cr75impurum6rit8id

I immediately noticed the word "impurum" in there. It's a Latin word that means "impure", which could relate to the theme as implied in the track titles ("Sick Times", for example.)

The word "id" is also in there. And "rit", similar to "Uritual"?

I think it's fairly unlikely for a random 36-digit number to have a 7-letter word in it. For example, if you take the original number and convert from base-10 to base-36 you get:

14e2kw9k0sjatmadp7ejvnax

Anyway, I thought it was interesting.
