It is part of the XML code for the BOC discography on their webpage:
Code: Select all
<imgWidth>572</imgWidth><imgHeight>572</imgHeight><thumbWidth>50</thumbWidth><thumbHeight>50</thumbHeight><thumbSpace>5</thumbSpace><backgroundAlpha>1</backgroundAlpha><transitionType>fade</transitionType><imgCorner>8</imgCorner><thumbCorner>8</thumbCorner><thumbnailRows>2</thumbnailRows><thumbPosition>left</thumbPosition>


And the last image, for the black box is labeled as: boc7t_ whereas the title would go after the underscore. The image is in PNG format, I wonder if there's a way to hide steganographic info into a transparent png... hmmm....

hm I don't think there's lots that can be hidden in that image anyways, it's small and the analysis I run over it came out empty...

I guess I'm desperate to find things where there aren't any LOL

Back to work...

Yup.

Album doesn't have to be out in October...just some OFFICIAL news by then would be nice...


i have an idea!

let's give them an ultimatum!


Hopefully you don't think that will work.


He was being sarcastic!


If there isn't any info by October, I'm not saying I'd lose interest in an album, I just won't be paying as much attention/getting my hopes up. At this point there has been little bits and pieces piquing my interest, but if nothing happens by Boctober, then I'll just pull myself back and go back about my business.

What keeps me coming back is the fear of missing an announcement or something

Wouldnt it be ironic if Boards of Canadas new record was stored in Warps storage and got burned up. That would possibly mean a greater delay. Damn british riots!

Me too, although I'm pretty sure I would find out through Warp's E-mails anyways. I find myself bored with all the speculations.

All the new BoC albums were burnt or melted in the PIAS warehouse.

Irony: the new record was called Riot Diet For Ferrets

That thought crossed my mind. Let's hope not. I am curious if this might affect the Plaid release.

BoC, if you don't give us an album right now, I'm going to go listen to Justin Bieber. I swear I'll do it!

Funny. I love how the "new" BoC sounds like it's from 20 years ago! Weak attempt.

I don't get it. Why go through the trouble of making a fake track? If you spent all that time on it, why not release it as your own? Lame.
