"The Campfire Headphase" is the third studio album by Boards of Canada. It was released by Warp Records in October 2005. The album took the group three years to make.

Overview

This album featured the addition of heavily treated acoustic guitars and the use of more conventional song structures.

The track "Oscar See through Red Eye" was released digitally on September 5, 2005 by Bleep.com, an online shop maintained by Warp Records. On October 4, 2005, the track "Dayvan Cowboy" was released through iTunes.

In April 2006, a music video for the song "Dayvan Cowboy" was released on the Warp Records website. The video consists of footage from Joe Kittinger's famous parachute jump from 19½ miles altitude, and later slow-motion footage of big-wave surfer Laird Hamilton. The video was directed by Melissa Olson.Cite web|url=http://www.barneum.com/twoism/viewtopic.php?t=1411|title=Sky's the Limit|accessdate=2006-11-25|publisher=RES Media Group|year=2006|author=Steve Marchese]

Music from "The Campfire Headphase" has been used heavily in commercials for the late-night television network Adult Swim.

A poster of this album can be seen in the British comedy The IT Crowd hanging in the main characters' office.

Recently the song Dayvan Cowboy was featured in a GMC commercial for the new GMC Yukon Hybrid.
