    I would also love to know this, I have an original of EVERY boc album EXCEPT this one, they all sound amazing. The campfire headphase reissue sounds great as is, but I can’t help but wonder if there’s something more I’m missing out on with this original…

      May have found a way to identify the 2005 original press from the 2013: compare the font size of the barcode # between both variations, and you will notice that the 2005 has larger font than the 2013.

        Trying to identify my copy. It has the barcode and runouts listed here, but the cover colour is more like the represses (according to discog's images). Was there a colour difference between original pressing and represses as the image above would indicate? Any help appreciated. Dayvan Cowboy, Oscar See Through Red Eye, just wow! Beautiful album all round.

          Is there any point sonically in trying to acquire a regular copy of this? I am pretty happy with my reissue but would be tempted if the original sounds better.

            Dayvan Cowboy is one of the best songs I've heard in my entire life

              A permanent fixture in my all time top ten albums.

                The drop off in complexity and intensity that accompanied making room for unremarkable live instrumentation guts the mystique and excitement of their previous two Warp LPs and leaves a disappointing product: A well polished but highly forgettable downtempo record that would not be out of place on any of the ceaseless Youtube chill-out lo-fi streams.

                  Take more time than others BoC albums to get into. But once, it is as valuable as others ihmo

                    Probably their most underrated album. How can somebody give this one/two stars with tracks like "85 Pontiac Dream", "Satellite Anthem Icarus", "Sherbet Head" and "Constants Are Changing"??

                      The argument often goes that this album does not match up with the level of accomplishment of "Music Has the Right..." and "Geogaddi." And my retort is simply this: it's still Boards of Canada. And Boards of Canada are LEVELS above most other producers working with beat-backed electronic music. Everything they've produced since "Music Has the Right..." - this album included - is rich and rewarding. They have one of the most refined aethetics of any electronic music producer or group - ever.

                      To any fan who feels this album falls short, I suggest this. Imagine this album were the debut by couple of previously unknown people. What would you think?

                      Campfire Headphase is WELL worth your time.
