Perhaps we'll get the Peel Session backwards at Warp 60 so it'll sound more trippy. XD

In all seriousness though, was that Peel Session played from the BBC's archive? Surely that must mean something if they were willing to play the copy of the full program that BOC fans don't even own...legally at least.

Or perhaps, that's simply the Pollyanna in me again haha

Yeah... I can't see it having any relevance to any new material.

BBC plays old BBC session from 22+ years ago.

Hardly a reason to get too excited is it? ;-)

Yeah I agree. Simply partaking in the forum past time of clutching at straws. :P

I also think I can finally disprove that sketchy guy on reddit. He said "the album is all black with a small logo at the top." Isn't that Autechre's LP5? I cannot imagine BOC simply doing a knock-off of someone else's album cover, especially on Warp. Besides, then BOC will be part of the Smell the Glove Club along with Prince, (Black Album) Metallica, (also Black Album) Autechre and who knows who else.

Actually, this could be fun. I'd love to here people's guesses on the new album cover: what color(s)? what kind of image (nature, people, structures, or no image other than text, etc)? busy or simple?

It would probably have some 70's vibe images from the Buzludzha interior. Drawn in Hazzy orange-turquoise with 68Mexico olympic logo style minimalistic BOC.

I theorize that the overall theme of the album is pretty eerie. I've been thinking it could have the same overall vibe as ATP-7 for some reason. I feel like the cover's gonna be some very interesting nature formation, rocks or volcanoes or something underwater, but kinda distorted. Colours would probably be themed around something black, turquoise-y, silver-y maybe?

I want a cover like IABPOITC or Twoism again

Re: GENERAL NEW RELEASE SPECULATION TOPIC

I will be honest (and I've said it before) I do like the idea of an all black cover with the logo. As much as a rip-off of Autechre it would be, I think it would very much suit what happened after the final track of Tomorrow's Harvest. Doesn't it feel like sinking into utter darkness and everything is completely dead?

I think it would be fun to imagine the next album as simply floating in the darkness of space waiting for the next big bang after everyone is gone.

Something simple, like a cross between Boc Maxima's and IABPOITC's covers. Would love to see Mike & Marcus on the cover again.

Just in time for Sundays highly anticipated Hell Interface drop, I hear side A of the new record is exclusively reinterpretations of classic 80s power ballads pitched down 10 semitones (with added synths) Side B is Bowie Covers played on a recorder then resampled 40 times down to a hiss. :mrgreen:

@MDG can you finally confirm this for everyones sanity?

Funny you mention those colors coinciding with the 70s aesthetic.

I think the album cover will be dark and minimal, and the music will be more eerie and mysterious. My hope is that they release two more albums. The last one representing the hopeful-happiness of old, eg. Children's Prison, Olson or Roygbiv.

Re: GENERAL NEW RELEASE SPECULATION TOPIC

I don't know if this is justified, but I feel fairly certain that we won't be getting more than one other BoC album.

Re: GENERAL NEW RELEASE SPECULATION TOPIC

They will make a big room house album a la 2014 or a eurodance album. I'm calling it.

*tin foil hat on*

Two days before Feb 27, aka when the sketchy guy said it would be announced.
