{"product_id":"octoberon","title":"Octoberon","description":"With Wolstenholme's keyboards pushed back in the mix, and strangely missing the harmonies that enriched their earlier work, Octoberon is something of a departure for the band. While Wolstenholme's stately \"Ra\" shows a dabbling in mysticism and the soaring sound of their previous work, most of the album is a strangely glum affair. John Lees adopts a pub rock sound in his compositions, although \"May Day\" manages to veer unexpectedly into a glorious choral and organ arrangement. \"Polk Street Rag,\" despite its name, is a slick rocker about a sordid X-rated movie house in San Francisco. There's a black humor throughout, as in this brutally funny line from \"Suicide?\": \"Heard a voice shouting 'Don't jump, please for God's sake let me move my car.'\" Not up to the level of their best work, but worth a listen for fans. ~ Paul Collins","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52638212686111,"sku":"4988031444344","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/4117dce4b5b719db0533d88ea741ec20.jpg?v=1782470097","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/octoberon","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
