Revision as of 14:54, 1 April 2025 by Fredd-E (talk | contribs)

LP5 (actual title not yet known) is the upcoming fifth studio album by Boards of Canada, which will serve as the follow-up to their 2013 album Tomorrow's Harvest. Although there is currently no official title or release date, LP5 was confirmed to be in production in June 2022 by Boards of Canada's online representative, MDG, in a private message to Twoism user babylulu. Subsequent sporadic but consistent activity on Boards of Canada's official social media, including a reference to "future news and announcements"[1], suggests that the intent to release another album is still there.

Confirmation

  • MDG, June 2022: "Nothing specific I'm allowed to share yet unfortunately, just that a new album is on its way."

  • Bleep, April 2023: "we don't know when the new BoC album is coming"[2]. Note the use of 'when' rather than 'if' implying that the album is confirmed to be in progress.
  • BoC's official Instagram - Starting in March 2025, BoC have liked numerous comments, all of which revolved around the topic of new music.
    • 8th March 2025: BoC likes 13 comments on an 11 week old post of a fan video of "Gyroscope".[3][4]
    • 10th March 2025: BoC likes one comment on the "Gyroscope" post.[3][5]
    • 28th March 2025: BoC likes a further five comments on the "Gyroscope" post.[3] One comment reads "The end of the waiting has never been so near".[6]
    • 31st March 2025: BoC likes a further three comments on the "Gyroscope" post,[3][7] and one comment on their "Dayvan Cowboy" post.[8][9]

Speculation

  • There have been many theories concerning potential release dates of LP5, or announcements relating to it. So far most of these dates have passed with no discernible activity from Boards of Canada.
  • Many have speculated a 2025 release date to coincide with the 30th anniversary of Boards of Canada's first official release, Twoism. There is significant evidence suggesting a 2025 release date, most notably a substantial increase in activity on Boards of Canada's social media accounts. However, a release date for LP5 has yet to be confirmed.
