Boards Of Canada: Inferno (Cassette, transparent red) [WARP RECORDS]

Why you'll love it

The wait is over: Inferno is the Scottish duo's fifth album and their first since Tomorrow's Harvest in 2013. Eighteen tracks of warped tape, eerie melody and slow-burning dread, from "Introit" and "Prophecy At 1420 MHz" to "I Saw Through Platonia". And on cassette, the format that suits that warble best.

This edition

• Transparent red cassette
• 18 tracks
• Fifth studio album

About the album

Boards Of Canada rolled Inferno out the way only they could, with cryptic clues and a stand-alone "Tape 05" that isn't even on the album. Robert Beatty directed the video for "Prophecy At 1420 MHz".

Thirteen years is a long time between albums. It turns out the hiss and haze were worth every minute.
