* Contains a slowed down and distorted sample of a video about purported FEMA Concentration Camps.<ref>http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=208665#208665</ref><ref>http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=208758#208758</ref><ref>{{#widget:YouTube|id=0P-hvPJPTi4|width=275|height=275}}</ref><br />
** The full quote is as follows, beginning at 1:45 in the song:<br />
{{quote|"The FEMA plans to imprison American citizens have generated a lot of interest around the country, in locating the potential prison camps throughout the country. These may be facilities currently being used as prisons such as those you saw earlier, or prisons that are being built supposedly in the name of the war on drugs. Or, facilities that have other uses but could quickly be used to detain large numbers of people, such as this Amtrak facility in Beech Grove, Indiana. <br /><br />
We're standing now in the main parking lot, which doesn't look too sinister. At this level it is a very large parking lot, fenced on all sides by fence topped by barbed wire. It also has these electronically operated turnstiles. There is also a surveillance camera just like we saw at the FEMA facility, pointing out to the parking lot, and a helicopter windsock. <br /><br />
All of these apparent security measures are particularly unusual here, because this is a very low-crime area and this facility is nothing but an old train repair station with nothing in it worth stealing."| [http://youtu.be/0P-hvPJPTi4 "FEMA Camp Footage (Concentrations Camps in USA)"]|0:00}}<br />

* "[[Cold Earth]]" could be a reference to a book of the same name by Sarah Moss. In the book, a group of archaeologists visit a medieval dig site in Greenland. They become isolated as a plague pandemic sweeps across the planet, and communication with the outside world breaks down.<br />
<br />
== Samples / Lyrics ==<br />
* There seems to be a brief phrase in vocoded speach saying "You're too old".<br />
* [[Mike|Sandison]]: "We're definitely vintage hardware freaks. We've always used older gear. Everything we use is decrepit. Our studio is full of wooden things covered with red LEDs. We'll go to great lengths to get hold of a specific instrument just to get a particular sound. For example, there's a sound in Cold Earth that is something like only one second of audio. It comes from an obscure old effect unit that cost us a lot of time and road miles to source, and it ended up being one second of audio on the record. <ref>http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2013/jun/06/boards-of-canada-become-more-nihilistic</ref><br />
<br />
== Trivia ==<br />
* "[[Cold Earth]]" was first aired at the [[Tomorrow's Harvest#Movements Electronic Festival|Movements festival]] in Detroit. It was part of the [[Tomorrow's Harvest#Viral Marketing|viral marketing campaign]] in anticipation of the release of ''[[Tomorrow's Harvest]]''. <ref>http://www.nme.com/news/boards-of-canada/70527</ref><br />

* "Palace Posy" is an anagram of "Apocalypse". <ref>http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=206690#206690</ref><br />
<br />
* Teleology is a word to refer to apocalyptic cults' interest and predictions in end times.<br />
<br />
== Samples / Lyrics ==<br />
*Some have suggested the lyrics sound like "We have everything" or something similar to that. <ref>http://forum.watmm.com/topic/79230-palace-posy/?p=2022639</ref> <ref>http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=211496#211496</ref><br />

*MrMessiah on Twoism posted a link to a old VHS clip where the word "eleven" is said to sound similar to the sample in the song.<ref>http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=211327#211327 </ref>. This same Twoism member cut up the sample and played it through a sampler, giving something that sounds quite similar to the lyrics in the song.<ref>http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=211367#211367 </ref><br />

== Trivia ==<br />
<br />
* A palace is the official residence of a sovereign, archbishop, bishop, or other exalted person. The word derives from the Latin palatium, from Palatium, the Palatine Hill in Rome where the emperors' residences were built.<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palace</ref><br />
<br />
* A posy is a brief sentiment, motto, or legend. Alternatively it is a word for a flower or bouquet of flowers. During the Plague, posies of herbs were carried as protection and to ward off the smell of the disease.<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posy</ref><br />
<br />
* The Posy Palace is a florist shop at [[wikipedia:Hertfordshire|Hertfordshire]] in the [[wikipedia:United Kingdom|United Kingdom]]. <ref>http://www.theposypalace.co.uk/</ref><br />

** "[[Gemini]]": track one <br />
** "[[Gemini]]": May 21 - June 20 <br />
** Dredging up of the subconscious mind. <br />
** This past weekend saw the last of three eclipses of 2013 (until the Fall), ending in "[[Gemini]]". <br />
** [[Music Has The Right To Children]]: "[[Aquarius]]". Both "[[Aquarius]]" and "[[Gemini]]" are air signs. <br />
** Much of [[BoC]]'s video imagery involves flying through the air. <br />
** -- end transmission -- <ref>http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=198078#198078</ref><br />
* I read a review (sorry, someone else needs to edit this post to properly cite the reference) noting that Gemini are twins, and suggesting that separation (or invisible, maybe inevitable) connections might be a recurring Tomorrow's Harvest theme. (e.g., [[Split Your Infinities]], [http://www.brainwashed.com/common/htdocs/discog/loci1.php?site=coil08 Last Rites Of Spring/"Twin gods of death at the end of the tunnel"], Beckett's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_Trio_(play) Ghost Trio], Virgil's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeneid#Themes Aeneid], & Dante's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divine_Comedy#Thematic_concerUzns Divine Comedy])<br />
**Many others' comments focus on palindromes, suggesting cycles in the tracks' sequence.<br />

*Gemini is a subcritical nuclear test project ran by The National Nuclear Security Agency (NNSA). The NNSA runs the U.S. nuclear warhead program. See also: [[wikipedia:Project Gemini]]. <ref>http://www.wslfweb.org/docs/WSLF%20Issue%20Update--Subcritical%20Tests%20Fall%202012.pdf</ref><br />
<br />
*Gemini (♊) is also the third astrological sign in the [[wikipedia:Zodiac|Zodiac]]. Gemini were twin brothers.<br />
<br />
* Old tune Julie & Candy refers to how editions of Juloratoriet and a Hitchhikers Guide to the Universe (fun dip) have speckled covers that pair together. The former book's UPC looks 1337 for the Lincolnshire Poacher.<br />

* Telepathy is the supposed communication of thoughts or ideas by means other than the known senses. It was a major field of research for scientists during the early 20th century and into the Cold War. <ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telepathy</ref> Upton Sinclair also conducted telepathy experiments in the 30's.<ref>http://books.google.com/books?id=ZQEmLUlDXz0C</ref><br />
<br />
* The audio distortions on the vocals of this track may have been modeled after the reported auditory distortions present in Microwave auditory effect <ref>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_auditory_effect</ref>, which was a facet of telepathy research during the Cold War. This auditory phenomenon was used to transmit sounds directly from a microwave emitter into the human brain. Researchers described that the auditory distortions inherent to this process caused "the sounds [to resemble] those emitted by persons with an artificial voice box." <ref> D.R. Justesen. "Microwaves and Behavior", Am Psychologist, 392(Mar): 391–401, 1975.</ref><br />
