Cool. Is your copy vinyl or CD? If not vinyl, has anyone who picked up/got their vinyl copy today (in Germany, Ireland, Australia) able to confirm if it's on the label as well? Curious.. :roll:

Could someone confirm how many hidden tracks there are on the vinyl pressing of this?

Please don't forget to also check for locked grooves at the end of every side

Lol, you can't really "hide" a track on vinyl :P

I would do anything to hear a studio quality version of Spiro.

I suppose, but I wouldn't consider either of those a hidden track in my books..it would be cool! But I doubt it. I imagine any bonus tracks will be released digitally, via those download cards some people already have.

I really think that if there was a hidden track on this album then SOMEONE in some part of the world would have found it by now. Hidden tracks can't be that hard to find.

I'd like to think it was an illuminati propaganda message. I love all satanist or conspiracy theory shit and how Boards' reference or acknowledge it in their music.

Has anyone tried recording the teaser video video to VHS and using a VCR with manual tracking to unearth some secrets?

To confirm, UK vinyl doesn't have "I Overflow Man" on it. I'm sure there's only the Warp and Beat Records (Japan) versions anyway so don't think this is anything new.

My UK CD has 'I Overflow Man', just to say. I haven't read this entire thread as I only found it by curiously Googling the sentence.

Interesting. So it seems like "I OVERFLOW MAN" only appears on CD versions of the album..those cryptic BoC Bros. :lol:

We're else can you hide stuff on a cd? I think they are leaving us a clue.

If you skip back to before the first track starts you can hide a track there but I'm pretty sure a few people have checked this already.

How about typing I Overflow Man into Cosecha Transmisiones or one of the likely candidate anagrams?

we gotta think bigger. i say we go to Bohemian Grove, sneak in, and get to the 40 foot stone owl. i'm betting at its base, they've buried a treasure chest full of stickers, posters, acid, nail clippings, breakfast cereals, orangutans, entropies ...

if no one has yet found anything like a hidden track its possibly just the card with the download code. but we have to wait until the 10th the cards work right? looking forward to hearing what they are all about. perhaps the extra track will contain still another clue to another wild goose chase. i haven't had so much fun over an album release in all my life ... kid for a month.
