Topshelf Records will be releasing OCTAVES’ first record Greener Pastures on vinyl for the first time in early 2013. Originally released by Hotfoot Records in 2010 via CD and digitally, the vinyl version will feature all-new artwork.

In its review of Greener Pastures, Alterthepress.com described it as, “…technical and dissonant, yet surprisingly melodic hardcore that impacts like a fist-fight but has impressive depth beyond its initial immediacy.”

Release date and additional details will be forthcoming. The Baltimore noise mongers, who have been compared to such bands as Dillinger Escape Plan and The Bled will be heading out on a short fall tour to Fest and back.

- I liked this record quite a bit when it came out, but they fell off my radar quickly. Sounds like a good time to give them another go-round.
