VV lol, pretentious bullshit below. I don't understand all the hate either. it certainly isn't their most daring effort, but fuck that ... it's great music nonetheless. love listening to this album on headphones at night. and no ... I certainly don't defend any ORL related release. for example I never cared for Amp ... and some of ORL's solo records are outright annoying in my books. Octa is a decent TMV album and a great record as such. suck it!

shit album. the only people who defend it are the omar dick riders that defend EVERY tmv album like it's a masterpiece. the people who listen to this are the same clowns that call amputechture a work of art. LMFAO. tell tale sign you're dealing with an omar dick rider: they defend this piece of shit

I don't understand the hate for this album. Since We've Been Wrong is a great song (when those drums kick in... wow), Teflon and Cotopaxi retain the pace and energy of the previous albums, Halo of Nembutals and With Twilight as My Guide are great as slower songs and Luciforms is a fucking epic closing track too. Give it another try people.

Not as crazy as the others, but it's still pretty mad in its own right.

it probably gets more hate then it deserves, but on a song for song basis it probably is their weakest. I dig most of the songs at least a little, I mean, they're all better then that really awful song at the end of Amputechture, and there's no Tourniquet Man, so I guess it could be worse.

this is not a pop record, there are catchy songs, there are infectious melodies, but there are also some of the best and most natural/cohesive odd time riffs and ideas, and the playing is as exceptional as it has ever been in this band. Just because you both find a way to get better at being complex without sounding complex and you throw out 10 minute droning noisy interludes doesn't been you're making a pop record.

Octahedron is good. For a pop album...VERY good. Pop is exactly what they said it was going to be, so people should never have gotten their panties in a bunch over the music having that kind of structure. They're not trying to just release the same shit every album, and Omar has said so himself. You can't even compare this album to their previous ones. That said...it's definitely not my favorite. But fuck it. If TMV "hates their fans" as everybody says, then I'm not trying to talk about them like they're gods. They're mere men. Making music and putting it out so you people can listen. Obviously your opinion on it is of no consequence to them. They "still have your money".

"there is no best or worst, art is art." No, there's definitely "worst art". Ever been to Deviantart? Jesus fucking Christ... On topic, this album is criminally underrated. Awesome shit.
