Hackers typically spam advertisements and re-sell personal info so they can make money. The idea that a hacker broke into an official BoC account just to post a silly video and change their profile picture seems absurd to me, frankly.

That would be a pretty specific hack out of the ~500 million exposed accounts, lol!
There are a lot of different 'me's, you know. There's the mad me, when I get angry.

Woah, now that’s a connection! There was a lot of talk about that specific post when it first hit.

Not sure if people already caught this, but the facebook account liked one of the comments on the video post: "Melted within the James Brown Hot Tub"

I’m definitely missing the obvious here but what’s the connection?

Well, if we know anything about the BoC fanbase, it's that they're no strangers to playing pranks on each other...

This is a pretty complicated prank just to fuck with the BoC fanbase. Hacking into a long abandoned account 10 years after its last post, posting a stupid video and changing the pfp/banner? On a significant date no less? (Pioneer 11 anniversary) I don't know about you, but we've never really had a prank on that level in here. It's always just "new rip" or "new remix" that ends up being easily debunked as fake. Frankly, everyone here is still stumped on this.

As I said, if all the affiliates of HS stay silent on this for the coming weeks we can safely assume this is part of the plan.

I don't see a connection either... that AS bump sounded like BoC, but most likely wasn't. It certainly has no connection to this.
no information at this moment in time

The caption says, "feeling bad can feel good." The Hell Interface video features James Brown's "I Got You (I Feel Good)."

My mind is leading towards this being legit, but this doesn't seem like something boards would do.
All I can say is that these are extremely exciting times! They've been assuringly active lately and I just feel like something has to happen this year.

I mean, how couldn't I?
Got my hopes up. :D

Exactly. Pretty interesting that the melting nazi is deepfaked to sing "I feel good" and the AS bumper was "feeling bad can feel good"

A melting face singing "I feel good" to describe that is a pretty...fascinating coincidence, although I'm not quite willing to buy it as more than that.

Dang dood, that's pretty perceptive. To my dying day I will always believe the music in that AS post are the bros.

Considering that, I think it's fair to assume that the smile on the Adult Swim video is actually meant to symbolize a face, not the moon/snow/etc..

Also small (surely inevitable?) coincidence: both Midnight Star and Whitney Houston have a track called "Feels So Good". :wink:

Totally understand that - but from what I understand, the Catherine madness didn't involve any official pages/sites being updated though, right?

The only outlier, and it's minimal, is that the Hell Interface account *may* have been part of the big Facebook account dumping, but the only way this would make sense would be if someone plucked this account out of the data dump and managed to alter that profile with some legit (Pioneer Plaque pic) and some questionable (melting face video) content. To me, it seems more unlikely that these updates were from a hack vs. a real update.

That all being said, hellinterface.com, hexagonsun.com and music70.com all go to a black page - very reminiscent to me (at least) of the old black box mystery....seemingly ages ago now.

I do find it odd that only their FB page seems to have been updated - however, there were several folks here reportedly seeing blue dots showing up on the Hell Interface YT page, which usually signifies new content. I could see the blue dot showing up, then disappearing, if the videos were uploaded and then immediately made private? Who knows, coupled with MDG's recent logins on here, there's been a sense for a while *something* is happening, hopefully this is only the beginning...
There are a lot of different 'me's, you know. There's the mad me, when I get angry.
