It would be nice if the new album could "improve" on TH and add real drums, electric guitars etc. A one-song album would be cool too (or several songs that just blend into one another).

I was thinking something like this, too. I want them to do an album in the style of a supernatural western movie soundtrack, if that makes sense. Something dirty, gritty, and spooky. There were hints of this in TH but it would be great if they elaborated on it.

I miss Opothecary. He was the OG. That said, I love Hexagon Fox too. (Very nice guy too)

His stuff is fun. He is the Bibio to Opoth's BOC. ;)

May September prove fruitful at least! And let us be happy that BOC aren't Peter Gabriel. He's been putting off an album for 20 years, whereas BOC are only nearing 10.

FWIW, as cynical and pessimistic as I typically am, I actually did think there was a slight chance of something big happening today. That'll learn me.

I'm ready to jump on the negative train. I've officially ran out of things to post or even talk about these guys. They're cool and all, but one can only talk so much about a band that hasn't released anything (aside from some dope remixes) in ten years!

That said, it's gonna be awesome when it finally comes out and yeah, "they don't owe me anything." I simply hope I'll be around when it finally comes out!

Don't worry I'm still positive! I simply feel that I will be repeating myself on BOC if I post in this thread without new content. I'm still in it til the end! Even though I feel like shit due to pulling a muscle in my chest really bad.

I only wish I knew how long it took, because I've given up on checking the Warp website too. If I had the IDM Beatles on my label, I'd post more about them :P

If speculation was a light switch, If I could, I would really like to switch it off right now.

Here are my thoughts, If there is silence but you would like to continue to talk, go for it mates! but if you want to, lend some of that enthusiasm to other parts of the forum. please.

It's good for the soul?

Oh ps: To pique your interest in The Playground further, you will be inducted into our special members club. Yeah, we include a tie and blazer badge combination pack so you can look real dapper as you sway from post to post there. :wink:

I'm feeling more convinced that whatever BoC do next, it won't involve numerology.

Keep it mind, it may be quiet at the moment, but it's actually only been 1-2 months since MDG's message to Babylulu, it feels longer than that, but really it hasn't been that long at all.

As for September 30th, that's the date Clark releases an album on Warp, so I definitely wouldn't expect any kind of announcement on that day.

I'm just biding my time at the moment, checking out other music, Bjork is releasing an album this year which has me exceptionally excited. No doubt activity from BoC will happen again, I just hope that the next activity we get from BoC is truly the start of the LP5 campaign.

Thank you, Orbited, for saying what I was going to say but opted to tell a lame joke instead :P
