So, has anybody figured out which track from the album it is yet?

Getting a "on the first half of the album" vibe...maybe one of the first 3 tracks?

Also the best part of the video is the very end of the song where the beat picks up, got a strong Chinook vibe :music:

I think I can start freaking out about this album now.

It's about 4:30 - 4:35 ish so could be

Reach for the dead

or

Split your infinities??

Unless my math was wrong lol

They must be uber fuckin' confident with this release. Got epic written all over it.

Kind of reminds me of a more calming version of xyz for some reason.

Koyaanisgaddi

Good to see Walter White turn up for the occasion

and, can anyone confirm that those are Posies (see screen capture) in the video?

They looked like roses to me...

Makes you wonder - did BoC go to the States and film this stuff themselves, or is it all stock footage or footage from old movies and television programmes?

If it was their footage, then they most certainly had enough time (outside of the important stuff like family etc).

Nah, when I said "outside of the important stuff like family", I just meant taking care of the essentials before splashing out on a trip to America. I never hinted that they may have ditched their families for a trip overseas.

This all could be a William Gibson novel, like "Pattern Recognition". Nice promo stunt.

Some parts of the video look like footage from those nuclear documentary movies. And the flying parts like Koyaanisqatsi.

So where is a proper release of this music video? It would be dumb to let only a select few Japanese see their first new work in several years on some crummy videoscreen at a busy intersection and the rest of the world on shitty phonecam recordings of the same.

That's just part of the entire epic promo stunt story

Yeah, hope to see it up on their site in full quality.

Also, best quality audio so far. Very pretty track.
