I’ve had no luck getting my hands on the yellow vinyl version (UK only, I believe), so when I found this one I pulled the trigger.

Honestly, this is the most interesting album they’ve made in a decade. Yes, it’s an odd one with all the faked dialogue and “incidental music”, but it suits the band. And if you don’t like oddness, I’m afraid we won’t have much of a conversation to begin with.

    I’d say its hands down the least engaging album they’ve done. Nothing about it is enjoyable or particularly memorable. If I ever pull the vinyl out again I’d be shocked.

    I don’t even bother with it digitally. 1 out of 5 stars.

    I’ll check which color I have, I purchased it pre order.

      While I appreciate the gimmick of soundtracks to a fake movie, Obviously something Kevin Starr would be all over being a huge movie nerd. The music itself isn’t what I come to Uncle Acid for.

      Why am I only hearing about this now?!? Not even their official website has it listed yet. I listened to the preview of the first song on bandcamp and immediately bought the digital album. Can’t wait to listen to it fully now!
