Tomorrow is record store day….

Since we can't predict BOCs release schedule, what meme are they gonna send us next

[arvy]

PIONEER 11

Nope, nothing happened.
I'm convinced that whatever is happening, our answers are not within "dates". BoC are far beyond playing any kind of number game, whatever they are doing here is more chaotic.

I think it's safe to no longer rely on dates and numbers for any of this.

You need to be a B(oc)elieber Demo


Hades B(oc)ieber says : " If you look through the timeline you will see activity on or around most pioneer dates. you will also notice if there is movement it happens a day after or before."

Didn’t know that BOC are gangster rap fans

Yo
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin', how, everybody's jokin' now
The clocks run out, times up, over, blaow
Snap back to reality, ope there goes gravity
Ope, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy? No
He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope, he knows that, but he's broke
He's so stagnant, he knows, when he goes back to this mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again, yo, this whole rhapsody
Better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better
His soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a New World Order
A normal life is borin', but super stardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows, it's all over, these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the Globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows, he's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water
These hoes don't want him no mo', he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmo who flows, he nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds, I suppose it's old partna, but the beat goes on
Da-da-dum, da-dum, da-da
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs caged
I was playin' in the beginnin', the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin' and stepped right in the next cypher
Best believe somebody's payin' the Pied Piper
All the pain inside amplified by the
Fact that I can't get by with my nine to
Five and I can't provide the right type of
Life for my family 'cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers
And its no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer
This is my life and these times are so hard
And it's getting even harder tryna feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter, caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama, screamin' on her, too much
For me to wanna stay in one spot, another day of monotony's
Gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail I've got
To formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only motherfuckin' option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go, I cannot grow old in Salem's Lot
So here I go, is my shot
Feet, fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better
You can do anything you set your mind to, man

I think mdg's babylulu message was the antithesis of my downward spiral into exhaustion. Now that we know something is coming, the sparse activity from the bros is slightly less exciting to me. I just want new music, old music, something visual, or mixtapes of other people's music. Hell, I'd even take another Neverman remix.

I'm not going to beg them to release stuff, but it is such a shame the greatest band in the world is taking their sweet ass time to provide the public with beautiful audio and visual experiences.

[Davism]

I’m with you, Demo. If nothing comes by this June, I’m going to be even further confused and discouraged.

Yeah I don't get the point of the memery. At first I was like, it's happening, but now I'm simply confused. Everytime we feel we are turning a corner it goes back to the status quo.

But on the other hand, the waiting game is definitely something that keeps me going. It'll be bittersweet once they finally resurface, perhaps for the last time.

They've mentioned Wu-Tang Clan as an inspiration in at least one interview, I also wouldn't be surprised if they were into a bit of DJ Screw every now and then:

Shoot, just underground cassette rap in general has a lot more in common with BoC than most people realize:

fredd-e noticed that the Featured Channels on the Boards of Canada YouTube channel have been removed. Which lead me to check if anyone else had noticed.

Unfortunately, we don't know when exactly they were removed. We're pretty sure they were still there on the 22nd, when all the other stuff was removed, but we can't be certain because no one ever screenshotted that page on that day.

Using the Wayback Machine, the best we can do is see that they were there on 2022-08-01


and according to niski, of the TMW discord server, they were already gone on 2022-11-27


and today, 2022-11-30, they are still missing


It's likely they were removed at the same time as everything else was, on 2022-11-22, and no one noticed.

If someone here could prove they were there any time after 2022-08-01, that would be very helpful.

It's also noteworthy to mention the Hell Interface channel still features the Boards of Canada channel, but not the other way around. Maybe they forgot to wipe the Hell Interface featured channels.

Still it's weird to cut ties between both of their aliases?

They were there the last week, I'm sure because I checked all the BoC related pages during my monthly routine inspection xD.

Looks like they have started a kind of countdown.

[Echelon]

@Dolochov

Ooh what kind of countdown? I'm still kinda hyped by this news

[shayjakespeare]

I visited the featured channels page on 21st Nov and I can confirm the channels were still there.

[luminousdusk]

Love the confirmation bias going on here sometimes lol

[dolochov]

My internet search history can't lie, I checked the page on november 18.

@Dolochov

It's just my opinion. They are progressively removing stuff which will ultimately lead to a new release or eternal radio silence.

[Fredd-E]

Please elaborate.

This is interesting news. Are you absolutely certain? Browser history check?
