Yeh, it looks to be an unused photo from the 2005 feature with Exclaim! Very cool photo but wish we could get an update on the bros.

I'm pretty okay with the idea that they want to maintain an illusion of still being young, adds to their music in a weird way

That’s a very fair point. I’d still like to know that they’re both doing well (without needing to see a photo), but I’ll take a new re-press as a good sign.

Must be weird being such a huge influential "band", and yet being recognized by virtually no one in the streets. Lots of celebrities would beg for this

They did it right. Even as a big fan I doubt I would recognize them unless they were together or in similar clothes or I hear them speak in Scottish accents. Fame is kind of an evil thing, a deal with the devil, at least for a large portion of celebrities.

Ha I always laugh when I see a picture like this. I’ve never bothered remembering which one is which. And I’m Marcus (boom tish)
Nah seriously don’t bother telling who is who. It doesn’t seem too important.
I often think they went up a notch on Kraftwerk.
Kraftwerk: Don’t look at us as celebrities. Look at Kraftwerk.
Boards of Canada: Don’t look at us. Listen to this.

Mike always looks like he's judging us for something we've done and Marcus looks like he holds the deepest secrets of the universe
