Does anyone have the actual hard-copy yet?

 

If so - add it to Discogs!

yep, got it on Tuesday and btw there´re no real tracknames on the CD just some weird signs, well some are familiar...

 

The intro almost gave me a heart attack, I set the stereo to high volume and waited for what´s to come, OMG now this is what I call a proper bass. :blink:

So when are we going to figure this out?

 

1: inverted ankh (intro)

2: "Plastic"

3: Mars/man

4: Om

5: numeric 5 (isn't this Ntagathi?)

6: numeric 6

7: numeric 7 (short track)

8: SPQR (oldest acronym in use "Senatus Populusque Romanus" or "the senate and people of Rome")

9: Icthus (the real name of the "Jesus fish" - short track)

10: (X)

11: ?? steps ?? or something Egyptian

12: I think it's called the wadjit eye (Egyptian)

13: (there is a 13th track but no symbol or sign for it)

 

On the back of the liner notes there is a cartouche with a CD, an alien head like on the cover, and the steps again.

 

Maybe the inside of the liner notes possesses the clues... I see some correspondence to the symbols that represent the tracks. There is a roman, a credit card (plastic?), an eye, and a crucifix, all of which could correspond to tracks. There are some other images here which I don't know about... a medieval woodcut of an execution or torture chamber perhaps? Leonardo's famous diagram of a man with outstretched arms? some old porno? two angels in the clouds... a devil overlooking - a snake? there's a festival shot off to the left here as well... and a coin - also looking vaguely Roman...

 

It's just a first look. It's got the feel of a little puzzle though. Maybe the track names can be figured out. Maybe they're supposed to be made up as people try and sort it out? That would be pretty wild.

Overlap is not right either.

Let's say like this...There isn't a silent moment on the whole album.

The albums sounds gooood indeed! :) Not really dancefloor oriented, but more made for home listening I would say personally..

 

Check out these (well rather short) samples of the upcomming Pitch Hikers album if you have some spare time :P

That album will be sweeeet as sugar too I guess!

There are longer samples for some tracks here.
