Introit reminds me a bit of Bibio's 'The First Daffodils' (first track off Silver Wilkinson).

Unfortunatly i think, Tape 05 might be just an extented version of the intermission between introit and prophecy. That or it's going to be a reccuring tone through out the album.

Nice - I can confirm that it sounds better on Apple Music, too! :mrgreen:

Right, I played it loud on a reasonable system with a big telly. Sounds epic. The robot stuff at the beginning, thought had wrong vid but that did not repeat after 3pm launch. The tune itself is great, sounds fresh. Does sound like NIN / D. Mode expected D Gahan to start wailing. Visuals are are on point. Loved the ending / vintage synths. Wonder where the sample flute ? at the beginning / Introit is from ? I preferred TAPE 05 but thats just my preference. I month ago ATP soundboards from 2001 were miraculous, now we have 2 new songs + interludes ! Good times

Big fan of the ominous drone they use to transition the two tracks. Wow wow wow.

Still cannot wrap my head around the fact I just listened to some new boards of canada in the big 2026. What the fuck! All these years of speculation, over. All questions, answered. Oh well, now the real wait begins.

I note the copyright at the start is from 1979, Watch out for the strobing and photo-psychic stimuli, lads.

Wow the visuals real go well with the sound...I love the intro with the logo flash. With Prophecy the guitar chord sounds like Cocteau Twins...it was really odd sounding track at first and the vocoder voice threw me off and it feels like a transmission...its partly familiar but also different at the same time. Tape 05 (which I love) and this track are very far apart. Going to need repeated watching to fully absorb it all.

I didn’t think I was in the right mood for it but when it came on and as it developed I found listening and watching to be an otherworldly experience. I’m astounded by what is possible.
Unintelligible (take the L to the i).
ON THE AIR. Pre 1000. Cheese.

So far, it's everyting I could have wanted: Stangely alien yet familiar nostalgia, creepy but beautiful and hypnotic, dystopian but optimisically ambivilant! To say I am hyped would be the understatement of eternity! The past is most definitley inside the present right here! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
