    From MothLife Recs:

    Bubblegum Octopus's newest release is available exclusively on cassette! This is a professionally duplicated, high-bias chrome tape for maximum fidelity. It is packaged with a color insert (pink and white!) and light pink plastic shell!

    The third long-form release by this New Jersey spazz-out unit is a mini-album of picopop-IDM and fierce chibigrind. What you've got is 10 tracks, 22 minutes of prismatic macromusic. BgO unifies, for his own purposes, a crossover of melodic breakcore, chiptune, Japanese shoegaze, speedcore and 00's-era cybergrind to express personal visions and fantastical situations.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Critters via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

about

Composed in 2008 for the canned Bubblegum Octopus album, "From The Magical Prince's Mouth"

Naive love, inside jokes.

lyrics

I hope that you don't mind if I call you
This is the final chance I have to save
Your name makes me feel propitiously
White stars float out of the screen and into my eyes

Take a bath with cotton candy
Eat a marshmallow or seven
I don't like religious imagery
Living in ungracious heaven
This is something so insane but nothing to be done about it
I was meant for something better
Feeding hopes for future journeys

For so long I've been a fucking joke
These words and sounds meant nothing outside
Now I see that there is more than one
Who sees why I spend my time drowning

Get back /////// what's your problem?
Don't ask, we all know that digital is just better
How did you manage to stop coming doomsdays?
I lied, but now the truth is here forever

I will not
This is not my spit

Sing along, until your throat explodes
A languished world, so melancholic
Find yourself, floating among pink smoke
And talk about the thoughts behind it all
