The samples sound fantastic, planning to order the vinyl, but the thing that annoys me is the album artwork, that's a little too much for my taste, but the vinyl labeling looks cool

I very much like the look of the art work. The only thing putting me off is that this is a 35 minute, free-flowing, stream of consciousness album split up onto two discs. Why? How much music is there likely to be on any one side of vinyl? Eight minutes? Maybe nine?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My guess would be that he really wanted to have it split up that way. Perhaps there were 3 logical breaks in the music, and he couldn't really bring himself to stuff it in a package with only one. I didn't really think about this on first listen, but I'll consider it next time.

Perhaps he wanted to show us how cool it is to waste oil! This cat just begs to be popped

Haha, the video for Ready Err Not. By David Firth. For people who don't know David Firth, he's behind Weebls Stuff, made stuff like Salad Fingers.

Trippy as fuck.

Fatpie and Weebl are two different people, dude.

Really, I thought some of the stuff from Weebls stuff was made by Firth? My bad I guess.

Yeah, it could be that there isn't a "half way point" that divides it neatly. Listening to it on record it doesn't sound bad as far as flow is concerned. It is funny how few grooves there are on the A side though, it's practically blank.

Fatpie = David Firth A.K.A. "Sick Fuck"

Mr. Weebl = Jonathan "Jonti" Picking

David's stuff is grim, dark, gory, and twisted, while Weebl' stuff is more happy, trippy, nonsensical and often sing-songy.

MEH. MEEEEEH. I wanna like the whole thing as much as I liked Cosmogramma, I really do, but there are some tracks I find really niggling and break it up for me (dead man's tetris especially) Then again there's some stuff I really like in there too, and the overarching theme of death is executed really well.

To be honest, living up to the eclecticness (NEW WORD FOR TWENTY FOURTEEN)OF cosmogramma has to be tough, in my opinion.

And the album art is uh, UH, PRETTY BUSY YOU COULD SAY HEAHEHAHAHERGH
