Title: One of the Best Albums of 1994
Review: The first show I ever saw in Boone, NC was Octopus, in 1994. Years later, when I moved away, that show was still the best I had seen. Songs like Guidance Counselor, Skinner Box, Mercury, and Souvenir still play in my head from occasionally, when relevant to whatever is going on at the time, over 15 years after I lost my copy of the tape I bought after the show. I search for Octopus every few years and today was the day I finally found this album online for purchase. Huzzah!Octopus was a blend of sounds from Nirvana, Sonic Youth, your Psychology 101 class, Violent Femmes, and the Sunday morning wasteland of an afterparty's ground zero. Sound and fury, signifying so much.
