When the band finds out about fake accounts they either take control of them or shut them down quickly. There was a small fan-run Myspace page back in like 2010 that they took over as soon as they found it.

This one has been up since 2011 untouched. Combined with the fact that the account was started on the same day the Nuevas Semillas video was uploaded to the known legit YouTube page, this account was at least started by them.

It's technically possible that they could have been hacked, but that seems really unlikely. Normally hacked accounts just spam ads and whatnot. They would have had to be hacked by a fan with an extensive knowledge of their history, style, and fan community... For the purpose of what? Posting a single video? I don't buy it at all.

That leaves option 3, they're fucking with us. And pretty much everything they've done under the Hell Interface name has been bizarre shit like this, so it seems pretty well in character.

Why do you say that? Their Invocation video was full of silly Satanic references (the counter flashing "666" and "kill" repeatedly), the old "Devil" clip on Old Tunes. It feels very in character IMO.

I don't know, I would agree with you otherwise, but editing a picture of a singer who died relatively recently (2012) to be a demon just seems strange to me. You could be right, I'm still not sure about all of it

TBH, I'm not sure that some of the Branch Davidian references were in the best taste either (though they are actually sympathetic to them, but people who don't read the interviews wouldn't know that) but I feel that BOC occasionally do things that are provocative.

I think it is in character for them. And perhaps one of them finally wants to deflate their mythos after 26 years.

I agree that they're definitely not new to being provocative, but this seems bad taste to me. I'll stay skeptical for now

Well damn isn’t that fitting, as we’re all raiders searching everything for the enduring BoC mystery...

Hell Interface stuff has always involved creating twisted versions of pop music and pop culture. Like a lot of Discordian humor it's both tongue-in-cheek and deadly serious at once.

To me this seems pretty clearly part of the wave of bizarre social media activity we've been seeing from them across both verified and unverified accounts over the past year or two. I feel like something is on the horizon.

Oh I could so go for a Hell Interface discordian shit show right now. I mean seriously, what better way to sum up the last year and a bit?

If they are following, by some amazing synchronicity, Discordian-level awesome - then buckle up for a wild album!

Think Hell Interface could pull off a space theme? I mean, it would be a weird space theme - new soundtrack for Dark Star? haha!

FWIW: hellinterface.com's history on The Wayback Machine was a mirror site for boardsofcanada.com, then redirected to cosecha-transmisiones, then, as of Aug 6 2018 until now is just an all black page.

Any ideas for the Whitney Houston image?

My only guess is they might be referencing that fake BoC Whitney Houston remix that surfaced years ago.. The title could sort of align with it being a troll or whatever lol.. "How Will I Know", and they made her look like a demon.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMNUdjhxef4&ab_channel=DiscoNinjaTunes


If that is a reference to the Whitney Houston fake, can we expect a reference to the Chameleon track from 2010 too? :lol: Maybe the fake Headphase album?


We'd be getting into real meta territory then and I'm down with it 8)

Edit: I think my favorite fake is the Acid Memories fake. You put it on and it simply plays Kaini Industries. I hope they (or the trolls) pay tribute to that :lol:


Wouldn't suprise me at all, the fake remix is the 6th result for me on YouTube when I search Hell Interface

They also used some of the other "hell interface" YouTube channel uploads on their last.fm I believe, like the Persona 5 memes the guy was uploading.

SPEAKING OF
I noticed a few weeks ago that the fan account called "hell interface" on YouTube changed its name to hell i/o
https://youtube.com/c/NikolaMihaylov

Maybe someone reached out to them and told em to change it...

interesting to say the least... I think that this page being fake is highly unlikely due to the dates lining up, but it is possible. The video honestly does fit in line with the Hell Interface vibe, so I think its's real.
no information at this moment in time

Wow this is weird and unexpected. For me, this doesn't add up to something M&M would put out as a promotional campaign. It almost feels as something an algorithm would suggest based on the name 'Hell Interface'.

By the way, there was a Whitney Houston fake a while ago (viewtopic.php?p=222454#p222454). Is there any other connection between Hell Interface and Whitney Houston?

Maybe they are letting AI take care of their Hell Interface moniker. That whole fb profile looks like it is run by bot. Something I found interesting, the man on youtube banner seems to be saying "Hi" so that banner might have been made just for Hell Interface purpose. Also top left, Hydrogen with a 1 or I in the middle. Just speculating.,,
