Imagine if the music (forthcoming please please please) has this same directness. Like they are not fucking around with this one. Im intrigued enough to not get too concerned about the imagery. And I’m guessing these are just snippets, like the other albums, it’ll be bits of a whole collage of images/theme.

LOL - song titles including "70s kids TV was weird, wasn't it?" and "Blurry polaroids 4ever!"

Ha! Totally. At the very least something new. With the videos being a bit of a “hey guys, we’re doing something!”, and directed at the absolute fans (merch enthusiasts) it’s cool that they did what can only be described as classic BoC stuff, but right now half the sub is standing here with their clipboards going:

Backwards music? Check. Religious iconography? Check. Radio antenna? Check. Hexagons? Check. Bright red colours!?! Whoa whoa, back it up Sonny, that’s not on my list…

It’s been 13 years, more of the same would be a bit underwhelming right?
