Double posting to ask an important question that the Lex press release has confused me on: Did it take them 4 years to make this remix? Or were they asked about 12 weeks ago?

If it took 4 years, don't expect anything else this year or next for that matter :lol:

To me it strongly implies that they had started work on remixing other Nevermen tracks back a few years ago but never finished them, and then a few months ago Lex Records asked them for a remix and they had a rough draft that they spent a few months finishing. After all they said they "had to wait months" for the finished remix, not years.

Thanks for clearing that up, Drifter! That makes perfect sense. I love the remix, but if that was what they'd been doing for four years, it would have been a blow to my morale (joking, of course) :lol:

I wonder if this coincided at all with the Hell Interface prank back in April.

Super disappointed by this tbh. Not the remix itself, but that this is what we get after so long. Ah well, the wait continues.

hasn't this been the norm since 2018 (a remix every 2 years or so)?

haha holy fucking balls! that is in plain sight. wow, good catch. the "hey satan" is pretty obvious but something about the way "I feel different" hits sends shivers down my spine.

“Anyone who can write a song played forwards and have it say something else backwards has got to be some kind of genius, and that I ain't! I was upset at first by the accusations, you know, but now, but now I would find them funny... we're totally innocent of all those claims... and we're all God-fearing chaps!”

We're more likely to get an instrumental of this, considering Lex was nice enough to give us an instrumental of Mr. Mistake.

That said, I've got no issue with it as it is now. All the Anticon rap tracks they pick have catchy melodies that get stuck in my head as much as the music. Much like Societas, they're good at sniffing out the winners.

An instrumental would be missing the point and in this case pretty boring and repetitive, even though BoC's parts are funky and fun. Find it kinda rude to disregard the original artists parts just because you're fanning over the remixer rather than the actual music... And when the OG artists part is the integral and most interesting part of the track anyway. That goes for Mr Mistake too.
I really like the remix by the way!

I like the vocals fine, and love the track in general, but tbh I don't really care if it's "rude" to prefer one version of a song over another. Especially considering BOC is my favorite band, so yeah, definitely gonna be more interested in them than the original artist they're remixing 95% of the time, sorry.

Like am I supposed to pretend I'm just as excited to hear the Nevermen singing as I am to hear Boards' beats and instrumentals, so I don't hurt Mike Patton's feelings? Lol.

This track is rocking my world. It's definitely been a gift in these shitty times. Happy I was around when it dropped :D

BOC are and will forever be geniuses

Don't be a dick sam!

If i'm not mistaken, there is no instrumental so wishing for the original artist to fuck off from the mix is pretty cunty ;)

It's all getting too serious. Listen to the big fat penis song. It might not be BoC. But at least it's fun. We need fun and love for one another. Thats when life really works best.

If hoping for an instrumental to be released makes me a cunt, then call me Cunt Drifter.

In case Mike Patton reads this, nothing against you guys.
