R.Borlax Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 not my fave warp artist but they are still pretty cool to just sit back and drink a cold frosty one (fresh as a mountains dew) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demon Of The Fall Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 yeah i like them, infact in listening to their peel session cd right now. but they are no way near as good as Sigur Ros, Ulver or Jaaportit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.turgenev Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 i think they're one of my favourite bands. i like both albums equally.i think this sums up my feelings on them perfectly:http://pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/b/boards-of-canada/music-has-the-right-to-children-reissue.shtml"Boards managed to evoke childhood without seeming cute or twee. It's childhood not as it's lived but as we grown-ups remember it, at least those of us with less-than-fond recollections. The shades of darkness and undercurrents of tension (qualities which came further to the fore on 2002's Geogaddi) accurately reflect the confusion of a time that cannot be neatly summed up with any one feeling or emotion."the weirdest occurance of one of their songs was 'happy cycling' in the background of a scene in six feet under, series 2. al - is that a photo of gordon cole as your avatar?...I SAID, IS THAT A PHOTO OF GORDON COLE AS YOUR AVATAR?!! YOU'LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP!!aces! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon Of The Fall Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 the weirdest occurance of one of their songs was 'happy cycling' in the background of a scene in six feet under' date=' series 2. [/quote']i love it when stuff like that happens! sigur ros has been background music on tv twice this weekend (untitled 4 at the end of the film "vanilla sky" and untitled 3 during some holiday show with the guy from countdown) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.turgenev Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 agreed. though i think it was the fact that boards are reasonably unknown and have never played live in america (and hardly even over here), and probably have a small select fanbase in the US that makes it so weird.mogwai on sex in the city was odd, but more understandable.

qzdiablo Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 but yeah, someone told me that they think listening to boc is like dipping your head in a bowl of warm waterand i listen to geogaddi more cos i prefer drones to beats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripey Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 personally i think they are over-rated, i got bored of their stuff very quickly, there is like 2 tracks that i actually like and listen to out of choice occasionally, the rest are really quite bland and feel like its a chore to listen to them.
