Boards of Canada – “Introit / Prophecy At 1420 MHz”

There’s probably not a bigger music note today than the arrival of the first music from the upcoming Boards of Canada record. Following the cryptic album announcement last month, the band releases the first taste of their upcoming Inferno. The band makes a perfect paring with longtime site favorite Robert Beatty who provides the visuals for the album and here in video form. The corroded collage helps drag the listener into BOC’s world of desiccated beats and synth transmissions from the lost reaches of the ionosphere. The pair of tracks are the opening suite to Inferno, slipping from harrowing drone folk to metronomic cult recruitment tactics. It’s good to have ‘em back and blistering this decade. The new record is out May 29th from Warp.
