Recorded at Hexagon Sun studio in Pentland Hills, Scotland, Inferno was the duo's first studio album since Tomorrow's Harvest in 2013.
Inferno's promotional campaign began in early April 2026, when unsolicited VHS cassettes were mailed to physical addresses that had previously made purchases from Boards of Canada's longtime record label Warp Records, and posters were put up in various cities around the world. The tapes contained stylized vintage visuals similar to the aesthetics of previous Boards of Canada releases. A website previously used for clues in Tomorrow's Harvest's marketing campaign was also revived with a message reading "nobody home..." in both English and morse code. On 16 April, Boards of Canada shared a video entitled "Tape 05" set to a then-untitled track which was their first original piece of music released in thirteen years. Initially thought to be the fifth track on the album due to its similar length, "Tape 05" ultimately appeared on the album under the title "Deep Time".
Inferno was announced on 22 April 2026, accompanied by a 42-second trailer featuring a snippet of new music. The clip features a hexagonal shape associated with Boards of Canada bathed in morphing colours. On 7 May, a music video directed by Robert Beatty for the first two tracks of the album, "Introit / Prophecy at 1420 MHz", was released. Listening sessions for the album took place in Barcelona, Berlin, Glasgow, London, Los Angeles, New York and Tokyo on 22 May. |
