If you order anything else with this item, the entire order will be held until we have these to ship out.** GIANT SQUID MINOANS 2014, Translation Loss Records San Francisco progressive doom-rock scientists, GIANT SQUID, have been wielding palatial vocals and enormous waves of cello, keys, and exotic sludge riffs for over ten years, garnering universal critical acclaim from all over the world. Marine biology and natural history metaphorically collide with heartbreaking stories of historic human tragedy; resulting in some of the most unexpectedly emotional and sincere music being made today in any underground scene. Cherished by a cult following of fans, GIANT SQUID has maintained and nurtured their fierce originality for over a decade, while still remaining relevant and tactful in the expert execution of their art. Their fifth studio album, MINOANS sees the avant-garde band at their most refined, focused, and vital, as they fully embrace their Mediterranean leanings and lyrically excavate one of the earliest civilizations known to history; examining how the aquatic demise of these ancient proto-Greek people may foretell our own. MINOANS is crushingly heavy, exotically beautiful, and unapologetically musical; GIANT SQUID's finest hour to date. Engineered and mixed completely analog by Tim Green (Melvins, Red Sparrows, Karp, Fucking Champs) ADD TO CART Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Cool artwork. Did they ever release their comic book they were talking about a few years ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeine Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Forgot about this band for a minute. More familiar with The Ichthyologist than Cenotes, myself. Will get around to checking this out eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimpkin Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The orange would probably look cooler, but I went with blue for the limited aspect. Looking forward to hearing this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 Going to clean and spin this afternoon hopefully - maybe some pics to IG. I got both since I have everything except test press for the 7" split so far. Want Cenotes on vinyl! Just do a limited 300 or something, even if they are Black 180gm.

monsterrod Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I'm hoping the blue will still be around when next I have money. Whenever that is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted February 8, 2015 Author Share Posted February 8, 2015 I'm hoping the blue will still be around when next I have money. Whenever that is... They're not flying out the window. You'll have plenty of time. Must be as cheap to press 1000 as it is 300 or 500. Love everything they've done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
