Nice, the shirts look great. I might well pick one up... you can never have too many electronic music shirts.

Oh wait sorry

OMG HAVE BOC SOLD OUT? :laughing:

No, they are getting money they deserve for their art

SARCASM DETECTOR VERSION 0.1 NOW INSTALLING.

ps - they are nice and i am going to buy one. bye.

But which to get? I prefer the light blue colour but I can't make out the design too well, is there a way to view a bigger version and I'm just too retarded to find it? :laughing:

I think it's the porn scene from the promo vid, but I could be wrong.

I went for the classic trees & house jobbie. does what it says on the tin.

these are so gay and fagggish and blue and they remind me of skytree. warp are gonna be so rich after this one.

I will wait to see the other two designs. I probably still won't buy, but they look pretty cool.

I love how they say they were hand picked and designed by the artists themselves, and then you see the same (admittedly cool) building and trees logo they've used before, and which has been copied by innumerable ebay sellers...If they really wanted to differentiate themselves from the bootleggers, they could have been a bit more creative.

the light blue mhtrtc one looks a lot like that prefuse 73 shirt warp had a couple of summers ago

lol

Copies of the first one have been up on ebay for donkeys and look much better - esp the green/yellow version

Blue. Shite.

they look pretty nice and I'd like to have one but they're pretty expensive.

damnit, it's more than $30 canadian !

Why do they have to be so fucking expensive?

WARP's site says "These T-Shirts were designed by Boards Of Canada themselves right down to the selection of T-shirt style, anything else you see on the market is a low quality bootleg."

But I have seen 'bootleg' shirts that are not at all low quality. WARP have, strictly speaking, made the sort of illegitimate inference in their marketing description that makes me despise all product-selling culture. I know that they just don't want other people making money off the BOC logo, but the way they phrased it makes it seem like too much of a slight to people like Mr. Plotkin, who was making some shirts only out of the best of intentions.

I know this is just a little thing, but it is sad when a series of little things starts turning you off of a band you used to absolutely love. :~(

£15.99 is fair game for any official artist tee.

The MHTRTC tee is a line-drawing of the MHTRTC cover - rotoscoped like the Aquarius insert or more recently, A Scanner Darkly film.

If it makes you feel any better about them, I doubt the band wrote the catalogue blurb themselves.

Don't worry about it. I think they just called the 'bootlegs' low quality so people will buy from WARP, instead of eBay and stuff. I don't think it's BOC actually insulting the fans who made other shirts.

actually the ebay shirts are pretty low quality

if the shirts are like the other shirts i bought off warp before they're pretty high quality and arent $5 walmart shirts with a shitty logo that'll fade in a month and that fit like a trashbag

Yeah! 15.99GBP equals to about 32CAD + the shipping.

I'm expecting a t-shirt with the geogaddi art on the next designs.

my shirt from herr plotkin is great, i've had it for yonks and i still wear it regularly.

i'm not sure about getting one because i've had mixed quality with warp shirts i've bought. i got the brown squarepusher one a couple of years ago which has been brilliant, still wear it - great quality. same goes for my vibert acid shirt. but i got that black ceramics chris clark and it was shit, cheap material and didn't fit nearly as nicely as the others, waste of 15 quid

i like the tree one

but id only buy a boc tshirt with

this design
