To be honest I wasn't terribly disappointed by either Octahedron or Noctourniquet because the descriptions Omar and Cedric gave before the albums were released led me not to expect much. What sucks is they seem to have lost interest in doing the crazy psychedelic prog they were doing at the beginning of TMV's existence and there are far too few artists performing that style competently right now so TMV will be horribly missed. :<
