I've got my grubby mits on a hard copy of 'Octahedron'

medulla [Edit] [Delete] 18:39, 18 June '09

a whole 4 days early :D (ad ininitum)

Woosh, it's great! I know it leaked ages ago, so what are your opinions on it (those naughty DiSers who downloaded it)? I really like how subtle it (largely) is. The songs all develop nicely, too. However, they just couldn't resist a pointless 01:40 of near-silence at the start...why?! Nothing's really blown me away in 2009 so far...looks like this may very well top my 'thus far' list.

Don't think much of the artwork this time 'round, mind. Colourful, but they look like kid's drawings throughout the sleeve. And i'm still working out why the artist painted a two-headed tortoise-cum-rhinoceros. The art on the reverse looks like a lizard with a tumour, though i think said tumour is supposed to be a sea enenamy.
