from saidthegramophone.com:
The Octagon - "The Narrow Road to Oku". It's a little disoriented, this sandy rock-song. It went wandering into the desert with a bottle of red wine, a Pavement album, and a few hours later is like: what the fuck? Whoever it was supposed to meet with didn't show up; whichever stars it was expecting to see didn't make an appearance. And now its shoes are tied in unfamiliar knots, its hair is filled with grains of unfamiliar minerals, and it's got a catchy song in its head - something it found in a dune, burnished and hopeful and even a little buddhist. Whereever the hell it came from, The Octagon's gonna carry it around for a while. (Tip o' the hat to former Montreal drummer, Will Glass.)

It's like this: You are sitting at your typewriter, simulating work. The city editor approaches with great celerity. He's the big shot in the roofless cement office, and he speaks a name and a location - a horse stall in a deficiently populated town, with nary a sawmill. Then he turns on his heel and is gone. Can you beat that for service?
hey guys, thanks for adding us, you're awesome!! we got a show tomorrow night at luna lounge, itd be really cool to chill if you can swing by! we go on around 8
I have eggs and I have other tools and resources at my disposal. For the moment let's leave it at that. Icksnay on the ousehay, as the teenagers say. BUT the sales clerk hasn't seen the last of me. He will soon learn that Abe Heller is smarter and faster than him, in all possible ways. Lesson learned is, as Mother used to tell me, all too often buying cheap costs dearly, so please don't look at price as the ONLY deciding criteria.
Salut!!
