8 legs are better

Fanatic has let us know that The Octopus Project has just announced details of a new album and fall tour. The release date from Peek-A-Boo Records is October 9, 2007.

The band's new album (title and artwork to come!), was recorded and co-produced by The Octopus Project and Ryan Hadlock (Blonde Redhead, The Gossip) at Bear Creek Studio in Seattle during February, 2007 and was mixed by Erik Wofford (Voxtrot, Explosions In The Sky). Guest musicians include Stacy Meshbane (Cue) on Violin, Jherick Bischoff (The Dead Science) on upright Bass and Violin, and Nick Smith (Nick and The Six Sick Sticks) on Trombone. It is supposed to be a perfect blend between high-end studio trickery, and lo-fi home experimentation.

Their tour is an extensive one, lasting THREE months from August 17th until November 17th ending in Texas.
