That or maybe a shorter version of a TH track. I have only listened once but, I feel like it is cut short for some reason. I dunno.


The track length seems reaaallly close to Reach For The Dead. i clocked it at 4:43.
Personally, I don't think so. I would expect a track titled "Reach For The Dead" to be a dark piece. Something with a dirty bassline and a hard beat


Not saying he's right here, but keep in mind BoC names can be misleading.

"Happy Cycling" is a perfect example. That track could have as easily been named "Death Choir".
Really? I find "Happy Cycling" to be a very optimistic-sounding track. To me, "Death Choir" would sound more like "Dawn Chorus." And they're both abbreviated as D.C. so there ya go... a perfect match, made in hell :wink:


Well I never quite thought of Happy Cycling to be "optimistic" but either way, it demonstrates that an uplifting, consonant sounding track could be named "Death Choir" if it can be applied to Dawn Chorus. The point is not to assume what it might sound like just because of the name.
*Shrug* Well, I dunno... usually they're pretty good at naming tracks. A lot of times when I listen to their music and zone out, I tend to have certain images come to mind... sometimes it's a city, sometimes it's a beach, other times it's in a forest, or in outer space, etc... And usually my images tend to at least coincide somewhere along the lines of other BoC fans because I see it in their homemade videos on Youtube

And "Dawn Chorus" honestly scares me a little, dude. There's some weird chanting and stuff goin on in that track

it's more whimsical than happy but whimsical makes me happy

I should have said that the above link I posted saying fake is a pretty good version of the transmission. Just incase some of you dismiss it haha.

It may have been ABP but I didn't see it.

That's fine, to each their own.

Although I tend to wonder sometimes if I'm hearing the same things as everyone else.
Okay...now...wait for fog machine.

Our BoC
Which art in Edinburgh
Turquoise be thy name
Thy album come
Thy will be listened to
High and also sober
Give us this day our daily orange
And forgive us for being impatient
As we forgive thou for teasing us
Lead us not into temptation to torrent the leak
And deliver us from WATMM
For thine is the Hexagon Sun, the music, and the nostalgia, for ever and ever.
Yeah, that's right.

Sounds like a fake


Not sure what the "sounds like a fake" is, but this is great audio quality. I think I like it better than the edited soundcloud file (which is nice, but a little high on the treble), as well as the other recordings I've heard. When the beat comes in, and then the chord change at 4:26- delicious. And the talking really quiets down on this version as well. Nice share.

Would be very strange for them to trickle out more than one track from the album via as many low sound quality mediums as possible. It will surely be the same track. Maybe they'll release the video on their youtube after this :D .

If Zane is broadcasting the song, it is definitively not the Japanese Bonus Track.

Am I the only one that finds it really obvious that there is no Japanese bonus track for this release?

I don't know about the release having no bonus track, too early to say maybe. But I'd be really surprised if the one they showed yesterday was a bonus track. I'd be even more surprised if the one Zane is playing tonight is a different one to that too.
