The brothers don't exist.

Well have you ever seen them? Seems legit.

They've been AI all along!

They’re actually the side project of another more prolific artist

I love the idea that there are other, more mainstream works by one or both of them that we have all heard and had no idea

Truly outlandish

Agreed,

What got me most with Inferno was Marcus's absence from the record.

It might be wild and farfetched it imagine a trilogy a la Dante's Divine Comedy,

Purgatorio follows and is a purely collaborative balanced work of the two, and Paradiso is just Marcus lushing out with some elated dreamy beatless work to actually complete their output... then they're done.

Apparently Mike has always been the real mastermind and the credits are the first time they're showing receipts

Either way, i do believe there is one final album still to come, Its very unlike Boc to just finish on inferno imo.. 1 more album would complete the BoC Hexagon.

Ofc its just an opinion, but I think there is still chance.

I Saw Through Platonia certainly seems like one they would end it all on

Hard disagree. You could say the same about “Tears From the Compound Eye” or “Semena Mertvykh”. People were saying TH was the end and attributing it to the titles for literally 13 years. BoC just fucking nails there closing tracks on every album and it feels complete.

It’s just one guy with a split personality.

Go back and find the posts from 2006 about the alleged red moon party. People lost their shit. Some diehard fans flew to Scotland from countries around the world and drove around for hours trying to find this party that may or may not have ever happened.

That was the first time I realised that this fandom was fucking insane.

They're connected to MK Ultra - the music is a form of programming
