That is awesome, always liked most everything by this band.

There are no plans for a similar situation for the next cd, of which we are currently knee-deep into recording.

Great news! The current album is easily good enough to make me buy the next one.

Finally spent some time with Op:Mock and I think it's a terrifically entertaining album. If you like the zaniness of past FTV releases, get this one. Noble Obelisk is hilarious and tricky (the crowd chit-chatting in the middle is glorious). And I like the Strawser-rich intro & outro tracks (but then, I would, wouldn't I?).

Thanks, BD. On the crowd chit-chat: Pat's funky Wurlitzer electric piano on that section gave it sort of a Ramsey Lewis/Cannonball Adderly vibe, so we stuck the crowd noise on it.

You might be interested to know that in addition to the next cd, we're re-mixing FTV6 and re-releasing it along with FTV7 as a double cd, complete with bonus tracks.

As for that next cd, here's a clip of Patrick Strawser knocking out a synth solo:

^^That was fun!

Finally got around to picking this up via Mr. Wayside. Fantastic stuff! So much going on--it will take a lot of listenings to digest.
