Revision as of 13:20, 22 August 2008

Important: I'm working on a redesign of the boc wiki to make it less general wiki styled, but more in line with the theme of boc's music. Not only visual changes are planned, but the goal is to import all the info from the boc pages to the boc wiki. This implies that the boc pages will be made redundant.

Also I've updated to the latest MediaWiki version and have installed a proper captcha system in order to stop the anonymous spam edits and anonymous bot registrations. If there's anything you like to suggest you can do so by using my contact page or the new guestbook. --Fredd-E 14:00, 22 August 2008 (GMT+1)

The Bunker is a great place to start reading about some guidelines.--Fredd-E 12:20, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

FAQ

I downloaded Catalog 3 / Acid Memories / Closes Vol.1 / Play by Numbers / Hooper Bay on Soulseek. Legit?

No, they aren't. Please read the first paragraph of the discography. Also copies of these albums were only given to friends and family of the band which implies that it's not possible to acquire them on the internet.

I downloaded a collection of BoC tracks labeled as A Few Old Tunes Volume 2. Are these tracks legit?

There is no such thing as A Few Old Tunes Volume 2. The tracks you downloaded however are most likely a collection of tracks from genuine BoC compilations; probably compiled from the following authentic BoC material: A Few Old Tunes, Old Tunes Volume 01 and/or Old Tunes Volume 02.

I downloaded a BoC track labeled Eno Test / Parson / Trillions / Treeline / Nskino / Gridlock / Lavender Trapezoids / Golden Hinterland / Rhomboid. Are they legit?

No, they are just a bunch of mislabeled mp3s floating around the internet. Please see the discography for more information.

Are BoC pagans / satanists / [various other strange suggestions]?

No, they are just normal lads like you and me. Please read the interviews for more insights.

Are these pages stolen off of Davidac?

No. Not at all. If there are any doubts about this please ask Davidac himself. You could also read his section about the BoC pages over here.

Will this site remain up-to-date?

Yes. Besides, any help to keep this site up-to-date is really appreciated. Feel free to contact me or post someting in the guestbook if you got new & relevant information. You could also edit freely edit the bocwiki if you've got something interesting to add.
