BoC trailer
 

Apologies to anyone already on the WARPBOT mailing list but here you go. The video is Flash-powered

Anyone else think that knew song may be better than anything off Campfire? I think it's gorgeous.

Re: The Boards of Canada Thread
 

yeah, but thats about it though.
what a wierd and wasteful ep. i just canceled my amazon order because i'm not even sure i want it.
left side drive is okay. skyliner is amazing, dayvan we've heard, remix is bleh, and the rest is completely disposable as they seem to refuse to develop their intriguing 1 minute excursions into proper tracks.

Re: The Boards of Canada Thread
 

Got the ep today. Left Side Drive is cool. The short songs aren't amazing by themselves, but sound good as part of the whole package.

The video is nice also. I wish that weird trailer had been on the dvd.

Am I losing my mind or at the end of that flash video is that a chick getting bumped from the back?

LOL

Good stuff. :)

Avant-rap folkie Why? (aka Yoni Wolf) and crew (pictured leftward) are set to release a pair of 12"s for new single "The Hollows" in the U.S. and the Europe on Anticon and Tomlab, respectively. The Anticon-issued "Hollows" single is due November 19, and in addition to the title track, it sports a remix by Dntel, and covers of older Why? tracks by Xiu Xiu and Half-Handed Cloud.

The Euro Tomlab single-- out November 18 but subject to change-- gets a Board of Canada remix and covers by both Dump (James McNew of Yo La Tengo's other thing) and Islands. Hey, Boards of Canada! Glad to hear you guys are still around.

"The Hollows" features the three main Why? dudes (Yoni Wolf, Josiah Wolf, Doug McDiarmid) along with guest stars Doseone (Subtle), Nedelle (the Curtains/Cryptacize), and Andrew Broder and Mark Erickson of Fog.

But wait, a single generally accompanies an album, right? Correct. Alopecia, the forthcoming Why? LP, will drop March 11 from Anticon in the States. Again, Tomlab will handle things in Europe, though the release date for that has not been nailed down. "By Torpedo or Crohn's", the track that Dntel remixes on "The Hollows" U.S. single, and "Good Friday", the song Boards of Canada tackle on the Euro version, will also be included on Alopecia. Yup, they're releasing remixes before the originals.

Why? currently have exactly one tour date scheduled, and it's a special one. They'll play New York's Knitting Factory this Sunday, October 14, and the cost of admission is exactly $1.00. Being cheap, the thing's gonna sell out fast, so be a smarty and shoot an e-mail to whyrsvp@gmail.com to guarantee entry.

U.S. "Hollows":

A1 The Hollows
A2 By Torpedo or Crohn's (Dntel remix)
B1 Xiu Xiu: "Yoyo Bye Bye"
B2 Half-Handed Cloud: "Pre-teen Apocalyptic Film Acting (Medley)"

European "Hollows":

A1 The Hollows
A2 Good Friday (Boards of Canada remix)
B1 Dump: "Yoyo Bye Bye"
B2 Islands: "Broken Crow"
