Awright. Which one(s) of you magnificent postfurryfunkskuckers were alienheadband? And why didn't you say so earlier?!

There is no way the track listing of Omphalos isn't an induction sequence. @.@

@Momentrabbit ... now I can only wish it were me. =@.@= Link me?

@literorrery I wish I could!

Ok, so. I've been listening to Spotify at work, to keep my spots from fading out entirely without network access to refresh their eInk? Y'know, like one does. And I was on a TMBG kick, and heard "Omnicorn". Which, between my own explorations of monohorn on main and crushing on Doctor Neon's scrapgoat, really fit the groove. So I asked for the song by name today, and it pinged thrice - two TMBG, and one by a band called alienheadband...

@Momentrabbit Makes complete sense so far. And yeah, keeping your spots fully darkened is important. I was worried it'd been too long since we'd changed your toner cartridge! =n.n=

@literorrery So I put it on and suddenly there's this spacefusionjazzsynthguitarflange between my ears. Which is big muff warm fuzz, so I try to viddy more data and what can I scrape from the web? Not much. The music's on all the usual suspect sites: the band is named alienheadband which is as close to deeliebopper as you'd want to get, three or four albums, and the tracklisting for Omphalos...

@literorrery And there it was. open.spotify.com/album/1qctOtY
So, spacey trippyprogfloydsynthrocksorta, and what pics I can find of the band suggest Einstein was their keyboardist. ::shrug emoji:: Their domain's expired and now sells... alien headbands. Which is very Endcap.

@Momentrabbit *looks at the album art*

... they're one of us. Or maybe we were one of them all along.
