CD ReviewsGreat Album greenletter | Houston, Texas United States | 02/04/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "I typically don't listen to much instrumental stuff, but this album is the exception. Perhaps because it still has pieces that qualify as 'songs' rather than just experiments. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of experimentation going on here. It's just that these 'songs' actually elevate themselves above being background noise and become living, engaging pieces of music. Few other instrumental albums accomplish this." Love that Octopus! Julz | right here | 01/31/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I bought this album a couple of months ago and then went to a show in Austin. They're great on cd and excellent in person. They put on a fun show (sorta loungy costumey pinata strange themed) and the fact that they're truly fantastic musicians really comes through on the album and live. My favorite tracks are Exit Counselor and Six Feet Up. And the lead 'singer' (the keyboardist) is really fun to watch in person. If you get the chance, see them live. The album is completely instrumental dominated by keyboard effects. Sorta like Four Tet. Sorta like Amon Tobin. I don't know Broken Social Scene well enough to comment on them... but you get the idea." Instrumental electronic rock at its best Evil Mr. Egg | Holland, MI USA | 01/26/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I first saw the Octopus Project as an opening band for Trail of Dead in D.C., and I was instantly hooked. Their catchy, instrumental songs got stuck in my head and finally I broke down and bought this album. I wasn't disappointed in the least. If you're a fan of experimental post-rock along the lines of Broken Social Scene, you definitely should check this band out."
