Didn't see the spoiler pics. They do look good. Stop making me regret slagging off Primark.

Boards of Canada
To me it just sounded like Nile Rodgers having Daft Punk guest on a few of his songs. Daft Punk going through the same formulae. Then a few Pharrell tracks. It was like they'd taken a back step, let the others do the work and just added sprinkles of their signature sound. That's obviously not what happened, it's just the other two guys work really pushes to the front and that was a shame for me. As for Boards of Canada it is their signature stuff, but with plenty of layers and very subtle in terms of picking things up on every listen. On first listen it seems pretty basic but appealing, then on further listens you get into new bits. With Get Lucky you get what you hear first time.

I think it's up to Chris to decide who goes next since he's receiving questions. (Basically a way of passing on the decision making)

Never heard of Consequence Of Sound. To be honest, I'm not too bothered what the press make of this album as it isn't set out to be a crowd pleaser. It's its own thing. Like I said, it's missing some singles (which is likely why it's been criticised on Consequence Of Sound) but if it's simply taken as where BoC are up to, and just appreciated for the sounds then it's great. Daft Punk was set out to be 'amazing' and there was a lot of effort put into making it accessible. There was also an awful lot of hype driven up to, so I've probably reacted a lot differently to both albums due to that. Had it been roles reversed I still wouldn't have liked the new Daft Punk album but not held such negative emotions towards it, and if BoC had been released like the DP album, and with as much focus on pop then (whilst I still believe it would have come out better), I would likely be simply regarding it as decent. A lot of it is about the entire aura of the albums and the expressions behind them. That's my own personal opinion anyway.

I'm not longer in control of the interviews, so decide amongst yourselves. I'm looking forward to the future ones though, with some of the names being banded about. Also interested to hear how Irish Emma sounds.

Crests of Daylight/Glacial Fox/Crests, Foaming at the Mouth
This forum is the slowest I've ever seen it. There were pretty much no posts throughout the general discussion area, outside of random chat threads. And those threads are shit.

I have. I really like it. It's missing some singles though. But it's great for what it is. I was worried it was gonna be like the Daft Punk album - massive disappointment and loads of hype.

I live near there. You should have told me and we could have met. You could have explained why you dislike 'ladyboys'.

I requested we do another one 2 months and twenty days ago and got told we'd do it in a while. So I think we should do one now. Even if it's just a mini one.

Some pay good money for that. See it as a freebie.

I wouldn't recommend doing it in public until you know what you're dealing with, especially after your first experience. And the sunglasses thing probably won't make a difference. It would more be your behaviour that would change. Some people don't change that much, others do. I'm not saying don't wear the sunglasses though. Simply saying that might not stop people realising or finding your behaviour odd. I've never had it cooked before so can't help you on that side of things. Dosage is very hard to estimate when ingesting it.

One man band it. I think you should do a video too.

Getting to know you (The Cping interviews)
I'm afraid not but we're gonna end up like the Polyphonic Spree in terms of members, so if you play anything else let me know. Cowbells don't mix well with triangles.
-
Getting to know you (The Cping interviews)
That was awesome. I really like all these videos. I'm fascinated by them. Adds another dimension to those willing to share. Do you play any other instruments? If you buy your own triangle you can join. We actually have a vacancy for a triangle player at this moment in time.

I usually have that and Crime & Punishment as my noted faves.

Getting to know you (The Cping interviews)
I'm four and a half minutes in and I want you in my band, and also I'd like you to spend about an hour every evening teaching me about the art and music that I don't know. Judging from the rest of your posts on here, also just general philosophy and politics.
