Acid Memories is the name of Boards of Canada's second known release. The Jockey Slut article "Boards of the Underground" by Richard Southern describes Acid Memories as follows: "Absurdly rare, cassette-only release from the barely teen Boards, then six-strong. Guitars meet electronics in embryonic but recognisably Boards-ian melodicism." It has been said that the album is "even less imposing" than its predecessor, Catalog 3.[1]
Of the album's six tracks, only a 24 second excerpt of "Duffy" (posted on the EHX website in the late 1990s) has been heard by those outside of the band's friends and family.[2]

Web images of the Acid Memories cover show the name "Boards of Canada"; the album was released as a cassette in 1989 and was never re-released. However, the band claimed that it did not "officially" use the name "Boards of Canada" until 1994[3], bringing the authenticity of this image (or perhaps the existence of the album itself) into question.
