Scottish electronic act Boards of Canada has been hinting at a new album ever since Record Store Day and today Tomorrow's Harvest was announced for release June 10 in the UK and June 11 in the U.S. via Warp. This will be the group's first album since 2006's EP Trans Canada Highway and their first full length since 2005's The Campfire Headphase.
Boards Of Canada has used a unique marketing approach for the album, leaving clues via an unannounced Record Store Day release in New York City. The artwork contained a mysterious sequence of symbols ("------ / ------ / ------ / XXXXXX / ------ / ------") and the vinyl itself cryptically played static, a little taste of music, and a robotic voice reading six digits, which corresponded with the Xs. The band also posted an equally cryptic ad on Adult Swim containing another series of numbers.
Enterprising fans figured out the puzzle and today a site was launched for the album (http://cosecha-transmisiones.com/) asking for the full combination of numbers (699742628315717228936557813386519225) for entry to the site, which then lead you to a the video you can watch below and a pre-order site.
