Customer Reviews

Three dimensional wonder...

This album is not one to listen to, say, on the bus. You want to go home and listen to this in bed. It's a great album, I havent heard much of BOC's earlier work, but i've got some EP's and this tops them all. It's got guitar in it, which is different for them. All the songs are kind of three dimensional, so there's usually more than one sound going on at once, which gives it great re-play value. The music becomes distorted and confusing at times, kind of like life I suppose. All the songs have obviously been worked on for a long time, not just bunged together from a selection of sound loops, every song has thought put in to it, it's superb. Not everyone will love it, but once you've heard tracks like Deyvan Cowboy and Satellite Anthem Icarus you'll see why The Campfire Headphase is a very deep and thought provoking album.

Sound to pictures

Been a fan since M.H.T.R.T.C. and this album just carries on a very impressive succession of releases.Listening to it in my ipod the other day ,while taking photographs of glorious autumnal scenes , it seemed to me to be the perfect aural companion to the visual feast in front of my eyes. Highlights on the album to numerous to mention but B.O.C have again provided me with a soundtrack which makes me feel 10 years old , but in an innocent and wondrous way.

Money spent wisely

There's no great shift in direction here for BoC, but that doesn't stop The Campfire Headphase from being a great listen. If anything, the Boards of Canada have reverted back to the style of electronica which made them popular on Music Has The Right To Children, as opposed the slightly more stark (and bizarre) Geodaddi. Initial stand-out tracks are Chromakey Dreamcast and Dayvan Cowboy. Well worth your hard-earned dollar!

Genre: Electronic

Years Active: '90s, '00s

Boards of Canada are the duo of Michael Sandison (born July 14, 1971) and Marcus Eoin (born May 27, 1973). Based on the northern coast of Scotland, the group got its start on acclaimed experimental electronica label Skam in 1996 after recording an obscene number of tracks and pressing the best of them up as a miniscule-run 12", Twoism, an eight-track promo EP the group sent to labels in lieu of a demonstration tape. The pair's first official release appeared on Skam toward the middle of 1996, and...
