Just like KID A two years before it, GEOGADDI is an electronica masterpiece, not because you can instantly pluck a handful of classics out of its tracklisting, but instead because it is an album in its truest form; it reveals its many layers with each listen. You will be pulled into a unique world; unique because it will be different for every single listener who interprets it in their own way-- and this is the beauty of art: Boards of Canada have created an album so personal, so real, no two people will have the same experience deciphering its endless intricacies. This is music in its highest form; full marks.

A great follow-up to 1998's "Music Has The Right To Children", this one has some truly outstanding songs. "Over The Horizon Radar" might just be the best Boards of Canada song ever written.
ikram c gave it a 10:
dark and brooding music, the type you would play to freak your friends out. the impact of boards of canada's music can not be understated, i feel they are the one of the few electronic music producers around who can actually create either playful or haunting melodies running around in your head for a long long time. if only all musicians put more of their thought and feelings into their work. sigh
Benjamin Bunny gave it a 9:
Like listening in on a series of disturbing childhood dreams--or reliving your own.
mnky gave it an 8:
sonically evolved from the "Music Has the Right....cd" Geogaddi is less produced (less butter......more trips)......BOC is one of the few bands that either cares too much or don't give a damn.........either way......revolutionary.
Mac M gave it a 10:
Music as daring, scopic and inventive as this just doesn't seem to be made any more.
Nick P gave it a 9:
There is so much to explore on this dark journey into occultism, childhood, drug use, nature, paranoia and eventual releif. What sets Geogaddi that mark above Music Has The Right... is simply that it is more polished, more cohesive and thought out. Astonishing attention to detail.
