Boards of Canada favourite boards of canada album

yeah it is quite BoCish, I guess that's why I have it.

This is also quite BOCish

Oh, and Geogaddi is my fave album by the BoC. Gyroscope still blows my mind, especially if i'm biking around the outskirts of town under the influence...Edmonton is about a 3 hour drive north of Calgary, where BoC grew up for a short period of time...and that's really cool to know when you're high :jedi:

i prefer twoism. cheers

That's an EP

Geogaddi - nothing comes close. It is the pinnacle of their body of work. Their patience, care, and vigorous attention to detail is apparent on every second of the album. A fucking masterpiece.

MHTRTC, i just keep going back to it. much as i love geogaddi. haven't got campfire .

Geogaddi

I'd pick Twoism if it was on the list, but that aside Campfire is my favourite. MHTRC is the record I like the least, though it's not bad by any means.

if EP's were included as in a favourite release poll instead of just albums, then i'd say 'A Beautiful Place out in the Country'.

they were at their peak then, imo.

favourite album, tho, is MHTRTC. what a great title, for a start!

yup

anyway, one vote for new clear dawn.. ehm I mean campfire headphase

It's hard for me to choose because I was introduced to all of the BOC albums except Campfire Headphase together.

Geogaddi definitely stands out though. It's so rich and clever, and I agree it has an attention to detail that is remarkable.

With that said, I absolutely love Campfire too. It's an emotional collection of tracks that sets itself apart from previous BOC work. Showed us that BOC have the ability to diversify themselves. Their use of analogue instruments absolutely worked.

Geogaddi for sure! MHTRTC is great, but as an album Geogaddi is on a whole 'nother level!

in my opinion (at the moment)

Geogaddi > IABPOITC > MHTRTC > Campfire Headphase > Twoism > Trans Canada Highway > Hi Scores

Geogaddi will always be my favourite by them, but my preference of the rest regularly changes

I really like BOC Maxima, but I suppose that wasn't released. It has the Twoism/Hi Scores sound, with the addition of a few more tracks. I wish they'd release a high quality version of all of their old stuff. It could just be in mp3/flac format for all I care.

M9 goes on for too long imo, though.
