fuck off
If you don't like Boards of Canada, you're not going to like this. BoC is infamous for evolving their sound very little over the course of their career.
That being said, this album takes on an alluringly creepy tone in comparison to their previous record, Music Has The Right to Children. Whereas that record feels like you're swimming through a sugary-sweet vat of nostalgia, this one feels like trudging through a demented fairy tale. The childish undertones are still there, but in an entirely new perspective. The track "Gyroscope" is a perfect example of this. It was actually a part of the soundtrack for the blockbuster horror movie "Sinister", which is about children who are taken control of by an evil deity and record the deaths of their families using a vintage super 8 camera. That one sentence pretty much sums up the feel of this record for me. Twisted and nostalgic at the same time.
Once again, if you can't get into anything else BoC does, you won't get into this either. Because take away everything I just said and it's still BoC.

Beware the Friendly Stranger and The Smallest Weird Number pretty much describe the entire album for me, just unsettling in the weirdest way possible.
