Over the course of our body of work, we have accomplished a great deal of things. A bunny played guitar for us, we made a symphony with zippers, explained why you should hate Dakota Fanning, produced an entire rap album, recorded while eating at a Korean Restauraunt, invent a our own language, Collaborated with Lady Gaga, and ate a Quesadilla.

After all of that, what is left to do? As it turns out, the number of strange noises in the world is quite limited, and once you've turned them into one hundred songs, your resources become a little strained. The first decision that allowed us to expand on our creativity was to altogether eliminate elctronic instruments from this album. Actually, this is a direction we've gradually been moving in since we first started. All of the sounds and music you hear On My Hairy Latin Arm are found and recorded. There are no Synths or Keyboards created in program. As a result the sound is much more organic, and infinely more psychadelic. Things get wierder than they ever have on this album, I am pleased to report.

The second important decision we made with this release was to hammer out the concept ahead of time. All Octopocalypse albums are concept albums, but I felt like Beef Over the Nighthawk, our most recent EP, gained a lot from having a more structured plot than the other album. Before creating any music for this album, I wrote a short story upon which it was based. I had been watching Twin Peaks at the time, and was reading a lot of H. P. Lovecraft, and so as far as the concept goes it draws a lot from those two sources. It's like a love story written by Lovecraft as directed by David Lynch.

The story is a bout a man who, out of curiosity, follows his cat out into the night, and soon discovers that the cat is at the center of a cult. The cult worships the cat as a destroyer of worlds and a bringer of doom. Sacrifices are offered to the cat on a nightly basis. Here, our hero meets a woman, Ms. Ford and they fall in Love. As it turns out though, Ms. Ford's dog is the cults Anti-Christ. It threatens everything they stand for, maybe the Universe itself. The Hero is left with a choice between one thing he loves and another. both of which are totally evil.

Sonically, we were left to seek new muses. I wanted to keep a distinctly Industrial and Dissonant sound but take it in a new direction. Seeking inspiration from bands like Lightning Bolt,Set Fire To Flames, and of course Coil and Shinjuku Thief. Much of it ends up sounding still very much like the post-modern wastelands of Beef Over the Nighthawk, but it still is very much it's own thing.

This all came together to create what is ultimately are noisest album, but also our most musical album. It's our most complicated album, but also our most minimal. The first act provides a straightforward, sensible introduction, and then dives into the maddening, lost dimensions of it's second, escalating into the dark, cuddly reaches of the third.
