that's not a thumbnail

nor is it blank.

*waits for more evidence, cause thread is starting to drag*

Last couple pages have been good, hearty, lols.

So, there ate two camps here. One thinks this means nothing, and finds it humorous. This is a glitch, or a prank, or an accident.

The other thinks its a wink. I'm sure its a wink. What else could it be? Why would it be there for NO reason? Any other thoughts?

Also, it begs the question "how much more black could this be?" The answer is NONE. None more black.

BTW anyone know how long it's been there? Has it only just appeared or did nobody notice it for a while? Must admit I don't ever visit boardsofcanada.com anymore because frankly it's a bit of a crap site that hasn't had much happening on it since TCH! Could that be about to change??!!

I think it could well mean something but I'm still having a laugh and don't get too excited in case it means nothing.

Should keep us occupied until April 1st.

You can be in my camp.

I think BoC are gaybos.

Great. I can molest you while we listen to Campfire Headphase.

well if having a border makes it not blank than neither is the placeholder.

remember, as far as the music goes, boc to the GP is not really known. ask people in the street.

youll get the "boards of what?"

just saying, sure big moment, within this creepy community. but as far as most hype ever.....ha ha ha

that painting caused more of a stir.

the last full length release sucked and

you guys are clamoring like empty cunts for more mediocrity?

i dare them to blow me away like they used to

5 year wait fucking lazy pricks

if you look closely, there are imperfections in it which make it not blank.

how come i just noticed this thread? Genius. I love the enthusiasm of you guys, seriously.

Are you sure it wasn't already blank before?

still skeptic

As mentioned before, they did this with the impending announcement of The Campfire Headphase. A good sign, to be sure

Seriously? Same black box or what? It's been like 5 years but you remember?

I remember the placeholder too from last time. 1-2 month left until release

Thanks. Hope it's announced soon, they can't release it without some kind of promotion.

While I also prefer older material in terms of personal taste, I think the latest stuff could in no way be called mediocre.

I fully expected Geogaddi. A release date was announced, it arrived at my local shop.

I don't really mean "promotion" exactly, I don't care about that. I just meant a release date would need to be announced. It's not just going to appear for sale.
