It's probably my favourite of all the Dope releases so far. The latter two tracks are all kinds of awesome. If you like the more playful side of the Dope canon, you'll love it.

Mine has arrived today and I have to say the whole package is stunning. The artwork really benefits from the 12" format.
Dabs is about 5 minutes shorter than the CD version, but I don't think it suffers from being edited down. It's still over 10 minutes long.

Happy birthday, hope you feel better soon, 'moronic neighbours...guess you're living in washington, look up he'll be gone on 20th'
Anyone knows how many copies of this one, 'odin on acid' only had 200 copies pressed. Maybe that could be next reissue.
They're just a really ignorant couple, loud,break lockdown rules by having over more of whatever species they are, they have no concept of how to live in a block of 8 flats. And their letting agents basically say "They pay their rent, they can do what they want". Unfortunately, the stress has done mental and unsightly physical damage to my head, but I won't go into the details.
From what people have said it sounds like my kind of Dope, I'm more into the accessible side, rather than the Black Math stuff. I just hope the cretinous neighbours like it, as it'll be going on at full blast!
Hopefully someone on HH can pass on my thanks to Julian and everyone involved with his work, music can do wonders for mental health, and gems like Self Civil War really cheer me up and give me light at the end of the tunnel.
Right, time to play the LP!

In reply to Citizensmurf post above re: bad neighbours:
Sympathies. I know what it's like. On both sides my neighbours have often broken lockdown rules since the Spring (parties/visitors at weekends/home business bringing customers to the house etc). The old guy on one side regularly uses a metal grinder when I'm trying to relax reading a book and having a quiet drink in the garden. It's like living in an industrial estate. I could give them a blast of Brain Donor in revenge but I'm too polite.
HH a bit slower than usual. Haven't received my vinyl yet but could be due to Royal Mail Covid sickness delays.

Mine arrived this morning, ordered directly from here.
Could be missing something but I can't see a number anywhere. The packaging follows the same format as Odin on Acid which had the number on a sticker on the transparent outer plastic sleeve.
Looking forward to disrupting home school with it.

Mine came through today too. Great service from HH even in Lockdown. There's no number or sticker anywhere - Norman must have got it wrong.
Anyone know if the plastic sleeve is PVC? Might have to replace it (I want to be the only one reacting with the vinyl) ;-)
