Now that the show is over and we have jointly exercised our constitutional rights; we would like to leave you with one very important thought. Some time in the future, you may have the opportunity to serve as a juror in a censorship case or a so-called obscenity case. It would be wise to remember that the same people who would stop you from listening to Boards of Canada may be back next year to complain about a book, or even a TV program. If you can be told what you can see or read, then it follows that you can be told what to say or think. Defend your constitutionally-protected rights. No one else will do it for you. Thank you.

This post was deleted for the following reason: This is a really great example of taking an admirable idea and a lot of effort and completely compromising them by a miserable, easy-to-misunderstand stuntish abuse of the guidelines. Why shoot yourself in the foot by going out of your way to make your post piss people off like this? -- cortex



 
I have omitted duplicate songs, favoring the latest released song. This is far from complete, I could find none of BoC's releases prior to Twoism, and there are just a few songs that haven't been made into videos by anyone and some are just clips. Some of these videos might be considered NSFW.

Heh. Too many links, not enough links, too much explanation, not enough explanation... and another day dawns at Metafilter.

So, you ike the Boards of Canada, then? Cool!

Radical touch, no actual links on the front page.

Take heed, Caribou.

This post links to itself

Does that make it a self link?

Wow, you've obviously put a lot of effort into this post, and yet you've failed to put any links on the front page.

Heh. Too many links, not enough links, too much explanation, not enough explanation... and another day dawns at Metafilter.

Not to mention all the derisive oversimplification.

Speaking of literal self-linking, does anybody else remember this Nethack post?

This place is crawling with Canadians looking for cheap links.

I blame the falling value of the dollar against something called the loonie, whatever that is.

Great post bigmusic! And to anyone who complained: shut up, bitches. This link set is gold to any Boards of Canada fan. If you don't care, move on to the next post. Boo fucking hoo, wasted 30 seconds of your evening on an unexplained link.

Some of us would like to understand what we're looking at before we care or not care. What is this?

Excellent stuff, thanks!

I'm a huge Boards of Canada fan, but having already understood what he was going for here, I thought it was clever. And probably took hours upon hours to compile.

That said, from the vantage point of a non-Boards of Canada fan, it's a giant steaming bowl of "...wha?!"

File under: "Brilliant!" and/or: "yr favorite cult experimental ambient electronic linkswamp sucks." Season to taste.

It's hard for me to be angry listening to Boards of Canada.

Wow, this is really neat! Thanks! I had the same 'Wha? No front page links' initial response, but, then again, I also thought, 'Wha? They're trying to censor Boards of Canada?'

But then I remembered, and everything was okay. Great post.

When did BOC stand for anything other than Blue Oyster Cult?

shut up bitches
I don't like being called a bitch, by anybody. Nor do I like hearing/seeing anyone else called a bitch. I jumps off the page at me. It's rude. Do you think you could have made your point without the shock-value?
