one very important thought
  • It would be wise to remember that the same people who would stop you from listening to Boards of Canada may be back next year to complain about a book or even a tv program. If you can be told what you can see or read then it follows that you can be told what to say or think. Defend your constitutionally protected rights, no one else will do it for you. sopastrike.com

[edit] Comments

"House of Abin'adab" most likely refers to a biblical house in which the ark of the covenant was stored for a length of time.[1] It has been speculated that the track name instead refers to Ahinadab, an officer appointed to the district of Mahanaim[2] (a biblical location referenced in another Boards of Canada track). However, this appears to be a coincidence, as a scan of the track listing of Old Tunes Vol. 1 clearly shows "Abin'adab" and not "Ahin'adab".
