why would anyone want to listen to it reversed?

aside from the fact that boc fans are pretty weird and crazy.


weird and crazy aside, it actually sounds great reversed. You Could Feel The Sky reversed is absolutely stunning, just to name one. Go now, and listen to it....GO!....NOW!

Dandelion, I Saw Drones, Over the Horizon Radar and A is to B as B is to C are all awesome reversed if you ever get around to trying it.

that is sattelite anthem icarus reversed.

the beginning is obviously meant to be played backwards.


if you listen to some songs backwards, you realize what the voices are saying when you were playing the album forewards.. for example, at the end of "a is to be as b is to c" you cant understand what the voices are saying.. then when you listen backwards, you hear a bunch of really creepy. i love you's

you should def. go on youtube and listen to some of their work backwards. its incredible how awesome their timing is.


it just means boc used reversed parts to build their tracks. pretty much anything with this ambience will sound good backwards. it's kinda normal.

but i will listen anyway because i'm loco like that ;)

I always thought te cool thing with that 'WE LOVE YOU ALL' can be played forwards and backwards to hear the same message. Try it. (we love you all/ looped, all we love you/ looped).
I think that's what you call a palindrome. Palindromes are cool (nerdy me :-))

True dat. Bocpages tells that too. And I think that Dandelion contains one of my favorite melodies when reversed.

The melody that pops up at the end of A is to B as B is to C when reversed is really heart warming. Sounds like something off of MHTRTC.

I it definitely sounds more like MHTRTC / Old Tunes/Random 35 Track tape stuff than Geogaddi.

After reading this, I inverted The Campfire Headphase art and it looks like two other people are behind the main guy

That's the look I'm expecting from the new album, sort of a dark blue/purple look.

Heh, thanks for the input about the baby!

As much as people are joking about the album being all black, I would love to see a solid colour album cover from BoC. If they used black on this album, I would die from laughter. No one around me would get why though, lol.
There are a lot of different 'me's, you know. There's the mad me, when I get angry.

Guys , this picture at the end of the Bleep-newsletter , is it BoC ? :
Image
It looks a lot like BoC to me... but then again it says something about 'Kompakt' night which BoC isn't affiliated with. If I'm wrong please ignore.

Ah ok , I knew I should have done more research. But you have to admit the picture looks a lot like the brothers. Especially the guy on the right looks a lot like Marcus.

I don't agree. If it was meant to be played the other way, they would have revered it. The fact that it sounds good or the fact that it sounds like the beginning was recorded and then reversed is no evidence that BoC wanted people to play it in reverse.

I would love it if they bring out the new album on one disc, and a selection of rarities on another. A 2 disc release would be just perfect! :D
Die hard BOC fan since 1998!

A multi-disk release would make me a very happy man!
