''[[Catalog 3]]'' is [[Boards of Canada]]'s earliest known release. The use of the name ''[[Catalog 3]]'' could imply the existence of two prior releases. It should be noted that the ''name of the album'' is Catalog 3, while the ''catalog number'' (for the fledgling Music70 label the band self-released their music on) is CANC19, alluding to the original cassette format. It is unknown if the CD repress in 1997 has a different catalog number.

The same source felt that "their mellow, disjointed electronica was not particularly revolutionary."<ref>http://www.scaruffi.com/vol6/boardsof.html#boc</ref>
