Boards of Canada 2026 (New album "Inferno." out 29th May)

i still dont have my physical copy

Incredible to think in a year that brought us the newly remastered boc maxima/ few old tunes uploads, the sound desk recordings from that warp event and that straight-from-source upload of a selection of older stuff, that they’ve all been well and truly trounced by a whole new album. in years gone by, that amount of activity would’ve kept us going for YEARS

MANCHES slowly opens TWOISM’s bedroom door

MANCHES: Shh, look Lisa from off of Blackpink - they’re sleeping

LISA: They’ve had a big day, they’re beat

MANCHES: Heh heh, yeah

Same :sob:

Had a few weeks off but gone back two or three times recently. It’s incredible. It stands proudly in their discography imo. Still can’t quite believe I get to say that

It would be hard to think of a band/artist that made such a great album so late into their career. Obviously they don’t release much, but even so Inferno is a masterstroke. I’m pleased for them and their fans.

Literally 40 years after forming

There’s a thread in this I think

In my view, Deftone’s Private Music hits the same.

The Weatherall book they did recently is very very good

I have the Aphex Twin one and while understandably hagiographic it’s excellent overall.

Thought I had a bit more time to pick up the Weatherall book but it’s out of print now, though they’ve already reprinted other books in the series so I’ll wait for it to come around again.

Either way, well up for a BoC BooK.

I very much enjoy hearing The Word Becomes Flesh over the end credits of the film Backrooms. BoC must have liked the film’s wonky aesthetic.

Very similar feelings in both of exploring the dichotomy between comfort and menace in nostalgia.
