No, New Boards of Canada 2026!

But def do it

Start with Old Tunes?

I would do it myself, but the Aesop Rock one I did started about 3 years ago and I’m only a quarter through it because the lack of anyone discussing the albums traumatised me :sweat_smile:

I’ve never done a listening club before, maybe I will!

Actually listening clubs are a lot of pressure. Sometimes it’s nice to listen at my own pace without the pressure to keep up or listen with a critical ear.

It’s also nice for revisiting or trying out overlooked releases, and reading other people’s thoughts.

Theses are my thoughts, thank you. I’m listening to Twoism.

I’d be well up for BOC listening club. The Bowie one is (with respect) a chore for me and a brain drain. And obviously I’m not into it as much as I should be. I’ll still like and dislike exactly the same tracks I always have done for decades, it’s hard to get excited about a glam Bowie album from the year I was born (74) :slightly_smiling_face:

BOC? Different kettle of fish mate :fist_right::fist_left:

I’m listening to MHTRTC at the mo and I swear I must have listened to this a tonne pre last.fm as so much of it is so familiar. I know Roygbiv is probably their most well known song, but I can’t work out why I know it and a few others so well bar listening to it loads at some point between probably 2004 and 2005. I sure as hell wasn’t listening to them during my metal/hardcore phase before that.

Realised last night that I’d have to tell my mum about this bleep/ VHS tape thing, as a few years ago she bought me a BoC t-shirt from Bleep as a birthday present, so was suddenly mortified at the thought of bleep picking her address to send this thing to, and her just throwing it away. Needless to say, they hadn’t picked her yet, and she was just a bit confused by the whole thing haha

Haha I was in a similar situation with my mum actually, realised my Bleep address was still my parents’! She’s a big fan of BOC tho so was excited to hear about it all :blush: I got her into them about 10 years ago so we’ve never experienced new album excitement together before, it’s lovely.

Been trying to temper the excitement and realise this could still be a hoax or unrelated, but you know what? It’s SHIRT OFF, FLARES LIT, STEEL CHAIR TO THE CRANIUM.
