    It's a pipe-dream and part of me wishes I could go back to a time where I blissfully ignorant of their existence, but apparently there's enough lost LLO material to make up a Vol. III and Vol. IV.  It's either forgotten in storage or perhaps discarded; no one really knows.  I guess when they recorded LLO, they captured tons of material and cherry-picked what would make it onto Vol. I and Vol. II.  It's safe to guess that the band probably opted for what they felt were the best cuts, at the time, but they've said that there was way more content that wasn't written as an afterthought or a b-side, but in tandem.  Same recording sessions, etc.  If they ever recovered those tapes and released a 6-LP set of LLO: Vol. 1-4... I think I could die a happy man.

     

    They were initially going to tour Low Level Owl at the end of this year, last I heard, to commemorate its 20th year.  (Technically next year, 2021.  But I believe the tour dates spilled into the start of next year.)  Not sure how committed they are in light of all the Covid developments, but if nothing else I imagine they'd probably do some kind of LLO 1+2 reissue around that timeframe.

    I saw them tour LLO years ago at the Middle East downstairs in Cambridge (in case we have any New Englanders here) and it blew my face off. They played everything front to back, and a healthy portion of Mare Vitalis as well - if I remember correctly I snagged some OG vinyl that night too.

    They throw whatever shit they have lying around in the pressing machines for bootlegs. It's typical to have them all be different. You're a dick for getting a refund after saying you don't care about what the pressing is though.

    As much as I appreciate being called a dick, I asked for a replacement because the C side had a divot in it so large it was unplayable and the seller promptly refunded my money on their own accord.
