Yeah...wow...I'm not disappointed about that song at all. It's definitely Boards of Canada-esque but they definitely have changed their sound a bit from The Campfire Headphase. It's got just a hint of the nostalgic vibe they like to put in their music and definitely sound more foreboding (which goes with the cover and album title, I'd say). I just hope they haven't completely abandoned the use of live instruments just because a lot of the fans got pissed about it...personally I think it added to their music brilliantly. Either way, I think I'll be pretty happy, though.

I didn't understand the backlash at all. I think it was the next logical step to their sound and it added to the feeling that they've been trying to evoke since the mid-90's. I'm almost thinking that's why they may have moved on from that happy nostalgic vibe and moved to more serious sounds...The Campfire Headphase was a masterpiece of the moods they were trying to get across.

They've used guitars in their music before anyone even really started to pick up on them. If I recall correctly, they didn't exactly start out with synths, drum machines, and samplers when they started making music together.

I really like the new song and I'm glad it's not just pure ambience.

Keep in mind this is a single, and the rest of the album might be tributes to John Cage and silence.

Regardless of how good it is, it's either going to get that or a 6.8
