D.A.M. Don't know whatever happened to the two individuals responsible for this albums creation but thank you infinitely for it. Has been such a beacon of sonic refuge in the last buncha years. I can't even explain, this album speaks louder than any summary ever could. Favorite track: Remove The Inside.

@maxfenton Been carrying around some early-2000s music blog pirate copies of this for ages and just this morning found a link to the Bandcamp reissue page in some discogs comments. Thrilled to finally close the loop and pay for one of my favorite musical bathscapes.

about

SP 046

"October Language" is the debut album by New Orleans based duo Belong, comprised of Turk Dietrich and Mike Jones.

Since it's release in early 2006, Belongs debut masterpiece has accumulated a dedicated cult following, with comparisons to the work of Tim Hecker and Gas, with some claims that it plays like My Bloody Valentine's "Loveless" sans the songs. While these comparisons are useful for filing this album into a particular bin in the record shop, time has proven that "October Language" is a unique album which remains unmatched by its contemporaries.

Despite the warm and welcome accolades of the albums arrival, there was no vinyl pressing until 2009, of which a limited one-time pressing vanished immediately. Spectrum Spools is pleased to present a pristine vinyl cut to go with reimagined album art for the definitive edition of this legendary classic.

Physical copies include a download card with extra tracks from the impossibly rare Tour EP from the same era. These tracks are exclusive to the vinyl purchase and are not available through digital outlets.
