I will be saying "I told you so" to all my friends saying this is fake, just like when Daft Punk leaked. This IS the album, mark my words.

― People Eater, Tuesday, 16 August 2005 08:11 (twenty years ago)

having now heard it - a big fat fake

― zappi (joni), Tuesday, 16 August 2005 08:28 (twenty years ago)

This IS the album, mark my words.

No matter who did these (and I believe they're real), they're really good!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 20:31 (twenty years ago)

why are you posting those on your blog, they aren't real.

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:00 (twenty years ago)

100% fake

― a, Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:44 (twenty years ago)

Really? the "Pontiac" track is really good!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:51 (twenty years ago)

SPENCER! IT'S FAKE! I'LL MAKE YOU A BOC RIPOFF ALBUM IF YOU WANT AND IT WILL KICK ASS!

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 21:53 (twenty years ago)

"pontiac" sounds like amateur Fennesz....two synced, semi-corroding synth loops does not a "really good" track make...an easy approximation, but definetely NOT the real deal

xpost haha- PLEASE DO!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 18 August 2005 00:08 (twenty years ago)

the first one posted, "dreamcoat", gives its fakeness away with the drums, they sound like something off of a demo...both of these tracks mimic the meloncholy, repetitive nature of BOC without the gradual development and sharp attention to sound detail...so unless BOC are completely burned out and beginning to sound like an imitation without a recording budget, someone's having you on

― Space Is the Place (Space Is the Place), Thursday, 18 August 2005 00:22 (twenty years ago)

been too long since last album, these guys should do much more. looking forward to this.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 18 August 2005 09:13 (twenty years ago)

they should play live again when this comes out. or is that completely out of the question?

― thomas, Thursday, 18 August 2005 09:38 (twenty years ago)

ooh that would be neat

― Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 18 August 2005 09:51 (twenty years ago)

Guys, "teams" leak full albums...not two tracks.

― sam g (seahorsegeniurs), Thursday, 18 August 2005 10:53 (twenty years ago)

uh SAM G, there is a whole album of this shit.

sharp attention to sound detail

OTM.

― cutty (mcutt), Thursday, 18 August 2005 11:03 (twenty years ago)

For those who were wondering - the 'leaked' version of Campfire Headphase is actually a bunch or tracks by Freescha, Arovane, as well as a few really old alleged-BoC tracks from 'Old Tunes Volume I'. I didn't listen to the whole thing - I got as far as track 2 and realized I had heard it before. Ditto track 3, track 4, etc. I've said it before - anyone who wants to create a fake, go ahead. We should see who can mastermind the best fake.

― Octopede, Thursday, 18 August 2005 16:56 (twenty years ago)

CROSSES FINGERS!!!!!
someones posted a new one up on Piratebay...hoping this is fuckin REAL!!!! pleaseeee!

― van der who (van smack), Friday, 19 August 2005 01:21 (twenty years ago)

Nevermind. It apparently is another bogus dud.

― van der who (van smack), Friday, 19 August 2005 02:44 (twenty years ago)

van, what does this fake consist of?

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 02:45 (twenty years ago)

I didn't download this torrent. I figured it was another fake. At least that's what a few of the comments left said at that torrent site.

i am seeding this and i currently have 20 peers, but for whatever reason this page is not updating and shows no seeds..this is wrong.

neoneon at 2005-08-19 02:42 GMT:

for those who have Pm'ed me YES this is the real deal. Enjoy and purchase the retail copy in BOCtober! :)

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 02:53 (twenty years ago)

van, i highly doubt BoC_Fan is your most reliable source whether this is fake or not based on the cover art.

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 02:54 (twenty years ago)

Hah you're right. Maybe it was just me getting tired of having no luck with this album with the past fakes and all. I dunno, maybe it is real. I'm not going to download it tonight anyway.

― van der who (van smack), Friday, 19 August 2005 03:02 (twenty years ago)

BOCTOBER!

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 03:04 (twenty years ago)

i was gonna say

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 19 August 2005 03:04 (twenty years ago)

(not real, although it seems to be an entertaining mix which contains "goodbye horses")

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 07:09 (twenty years ago)

BOC is the easiest band ever to fake.

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Friday, 19 August 2005 07:13 (twenty years ago)

or so people seem to think

― danny b, Saturday, 20 August 2005 02:55 (twenty years ago)

Reminds me of camping around a fire listen to boards with a few mates up north a few weeks ago!

― fabkat, Saturday, 20 August 2005 17:09 (twenty years ago)

Arrrrr!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Saturday, 20 August 2005 17:16 (twenty years ago)

I'd like to join in the discussion now.

― sickhead, Saturday, 20 August 2005 17:53 (twenty years ago)

BOCTOCOPTER

― sickhead, Saturday, 20 August 2005 17:53 (twenty years ago)

i have it... havnt listened to it yet.

even if it isnt BoC... if it sounds good, ill like it.

i hope it sounds like hell interface.

pleeeeeeeeeese sound like hell interface, and everything before geogaddi.

― bachrodi, Sunday, 21 August 2005 01:52 (twenty years ago)

I downloaded a shit load of boards of canada fakes so far, a couple full album fakes. I still can't believe loyal boards of canada fans would buy into this obvious mirage. Everyone says they are easy to immitate hmm? in theory yes...abut at the same time its nearly impossible. They have been making music forever and nobody else besides them can create that dinstict sound we should all know so well. Although...a few of the fakes have some pretty good songs,plus i just needed something new to listen to. October is a million light years away.

― SamuraiPizzaCat, Sunday, 21 August 2005 17:13 (twenty years ago)

pff. two months, thats nothing. otm about the inimitable sound tho

― fe7 (FE7), Sunday, 21 August 2005 17:21 (twenty years ago)

A month and a half = a million light years?

― mike h. (mike h.), Sunday, 21 August 2005 17:30 (twenty years ago)

I've heard that all of their releases so far have been fake!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Sunday, 21 August 2005 18:25 (twenty years ago)

I phoned up boards of canada today and they confirmed that no they don't have a copy of the album either.
