Boards Of Canada Inferno

After thirteen years of silence, Boards of Canada return with Inferno—a long-awaited release that deepens the enigmatic sound they’ve been quietly refining for decades. Instantly recognisable yet more shadowed and immersive, the album blends their signature analogue warmth with a darker, more unsettling edge.

Building on the esoteric textures of Societas X Tape and the foreboding atmosphere of Tomorrow’s Harvest, Inferno unfolds across a seventy-minute runtime of drifting melodies, fractured rhythms and layered, manipulated speech samples. The result is hypnotic and cinematic—music that feels both intimate and vast, pulling the listener into a world that’s as nostalgic as it is disquieting.

Pressed on black vinyl across 2LP and housed in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeves, this edition presents Inferno in a clean, classic format that lets the music speak for itself. A compelling return from one of electronic music’s most influential and elusive acts.
