couldn't disagree more. how come no one ever says stuff like that about folk artists and acoustic guitars?

― mark p (Mark P), Sunday, 14 August 2005 14:52 (eighteen years ago) link

they don't?

― jed_ (jed), Sunday, 14 August 2005 16:02 (eighteen years ago) link

actually maybe they don't. it must be because they abolutely hate electronic music & are biased against it. or maybe they do just find BOC fairly limited.

Blimey, i started the anticipation thread for Geogaddi, + it never got this level of attention. Campfire Headphase may turn out to be the most faked pre-release ever; if I can summon up enough self-discipline for one of my very favourite acts I'll wait until the official release

Wasn't "Human After All" pretty faked out? This is the year of the highly anticipated/fake leaked albums! say what?

― dj Mattiepoo, Sunday, 14 August 2005 21:39 (eighteen years ago) link

mattiepoo i believe that was more a case of people not wanting to believe the leak was real ie "daft punk can't possibly make an album this bad"

― nervous (cochere), Sunday, 14 August 2005 22:26 (eighteen years ago) link

human after all was a total fake, i can't believe everybody fell for that!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Sunday, 14 August 2005 23:55 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm too much of a bum to look through this whole thread...is there samples of this anywhere?

― seahorse genius (seahorse genius), Monday, 15 August 2005 04:54 (eighteen years ago) link

no i don't think so. 222 messages discussing the cover and the definition of viral marketing. check back in a few weeks.

there has never been a good use of a children's choir. it's impossible.

Gavin Bryar's "The Sinking of the Titanic" would seem to disagree with you, as would the resultant Aphex Twin remixes.

― Matt Tuozzo (TheChisa), Monday, 15 August 2005 13:33 (eighteen years ago) link

as would heartbroken children around the world, you thoughtless wretch.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 15 August 2005 13:52 (eighteen years ago) link

bump

I need constant updates and bickering over details of the cover!

― jmeister (jmeister), Monday, 15 August 2005 22:57 (eighteen years ago) link

i think someone should point out that BOC is really Blue Oyster Cult, not Boards of Canada. You should ask Buck Dharma for permission to sample that acronym.

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Monday, 15 August 2005 23:07 (eighteen years ago) link

i think this whole operation is foobar. i hate all the bullshit, the fakes, the dumbass banter. we are all anticipating the release of the campfire headphase, but you don't have to be a dick about it. that's not how mike or marcus would have wanted it. get a life! you are the ones who are the ball lickers!!!!!!

i just listened to it all. and it sucks. cannot be BOC. FAKE.

― johhny number five, Tuesday, 16 August 2005 07:41 (eighteen years ago) link

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 (eighteen years ago) link

having now heard it - a big fat fake

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

This IS the album, mark my words.

I HAVE MARKED YOUR WORDS! THERE'S NO GOING BACK NOW PEOPLE EATER! THIS WILL COME BACK TO HAUNT YOU>>>

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

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

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

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

100% fake

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

Really? the "Pontiac" track is really good!

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

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 (eighteen years ago) link

"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

― Space Is the Place (Space Is the Place), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 23:42 (eighteen years ago) link

xpost haha- PLEASE DO!

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

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 (eighteen years ago) link

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

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

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

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

ooh that would be neat

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

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

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

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 (eighteen years ago) link

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 (eighteen years ago) link

CROSSES FINGERS!!!!!

van, what does this fake consist of?

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

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.

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

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

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 (eighteen years ago) link

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.
