I assume your post is sarcasm, but I'll bite anyways: MDG literally told us (via babylulu) a new album is on its way. If that doesn't equal something is happening, what does?

This goes to show some people will never be happy unless the official Twitter sends out the pre-order link or something similar. But to me, when someone like MDG, their official spokesperson, tells us it is happening, it is happening. And that should be more than reason enough to be happy. He made it official enough by sending that one message to babylulu. I know his worth by now.rodox_head wrote:I mean, nothing really has happened since then, and that wasn't really a formal announcement of anything.Fredd-E wrote:bocbocbocboc wrote:Y'know, for a second I really thought something was happening.

If this is finally going to be goodbye, it will be bittersweet. I've been following the BOC community and activity since Societas so it'll be sad having nothing to wait for if they pull a Daft Punk. (Though luckily it'll be a Daft Punk with actual content!)

Ahem...rodox_head wrote:since then
Nothing major has actually happened between then and now other than this whole deletion thing.
I never said the album isn't in development and I never doubted MDG's credibility. Just because it's an "official" statement, doesn't necessarily make it "formal"; hell, it wasn't even technically public. With all due respect, please don't put words in my mouth.

I'm almost 100% certain they won't pull a Daft Punk so do not despair my friend!
I remember the same feeling after seeing 'Farewell fire' on the tracklist of Headphase, thinking it was all over!
Yes they have a 5 album contract with warp apparently which will be coming to an end soon but I don't see any reason why they couldn't continue with a new contract with warp, go back to skam, music70 or start their own label. As Marcus said in one interview after TH..
"we’ve no intention of stopping, so this is just a continuation"
Even MDG said, I think, that just before TH came out they had more than one record in the final stages!
So that definitely gives me hope that they out for the gusto and they gonna keep it raw.
Also the fact that they redesigned and expanded their studio space.. Which sounded apparently quite a mission, before TH tells me that they have long term future music plans.
I'd even hold out hope of seeing them live one day, as they've said in numerous interviews that they are working towards this in some capacity.
I remain eternally hopeful.. I just keep Satellite Icarus and Skyliner on repeat and try not to get too bogged down in Semena Mertvykh vibes.. That's one hell of a dark place..
No.. Keep the light shining in, see those billions of photons penetrating into prisms.. Splitting the light into infinite lines of colourful sevens, bursting with glistening neon fractals and hear those warm analog rainbow arpeggios cascading through the ethereal bocosphere!
