The Octagon's new album "Warm Love and Cool Dreams Forever" was recorded on 2 Tascam 4 track cassette recorders - which will force us to move them from our "indie rock" chart to the "lo-fi" one. But the band's music has always been lo-fi even when it wasn't so on a technical level: their songs are brief bursts of almost disorganized energy somehow tied together by Zachary Mexico's concise pop songs. The new album - out in early January - will be supported through an extended East Coast tour starting in Philly on 01.05.
