I guess so, but 2012 did too. For the past four or five years, my position has been that if BOC ever do another album, it would be a nice surprise. I know that The Campfire Headphase was the last album proper and the Trans Canada Highway EP followed it, but I wish they could have at least mustered up the gumption to do a stand-alone single or even another EP. Maybe press a note on a keyboard and sustain it for a minute-and-a-half and call it "Hey Everybody, We're Still Alive!"--just something, for christsakes.

Over 14 years since MHTRTC and I'm still hearing new nuances in that album. Their music never gets stale if you leave it alone for a while.

Indeed. I also feel that way about Geogaddi and Hi Scores.

Now, Campfire on the other hand...
Okay...now...wait for fog machine.

Just tweeted for shits and giggles: Well, guys. Less than a month before the "End of the world album release" conspiracy is proven wrong.

i think the actual mayan 'prophecy' is for 1998, not 2012, so i guess they already covered that one

Lol the main synth chorus in this , Nathan Fake - 02 Paean (Lone Remix) , sounds so much like BoC it's ridiculous. Lone never ceases to amaze me, twisting the same sounds so many times into different patterns and still making it listenable.

Can't get enough of these new remixes he's dropping everywhere, guy is really blowing everyone else to shit imo. Fucka Flylo, Lone is king. Wonder what his new EP is going to sound like.

Yes the Lone remix is excellent. Love the original too. Great stuff. Will listen to the full ep tomorrow.

With more and more artists announcing new albums this coming year I'm seriously hoping BoC will join the party. It would make 2013 one of the greatest years in music in a while, at least for me.

I'm still listening to that "fake" leak. I'm enjoying it as just anorher composure. I wonder who made it...
Davefrom2001 perhaps?
