LOST IN “THE GARDENERS OF EDEN”

I’ve never really gotten into Cattle Decapitation, although I don’t know why. They seem like a fine band – I guess it just comes down to having too few hours in the day and the fact that a friend has never run up to me and said the words “Oh my God you HAVE to hear the new Cattle Decapitation album!” Even album art featuring a cow crapping a human just never got me excited enough to sit down and listen in earnest.

But I’m really digging “The Gardeners of Eden,” the new song currently streaming on the band’s MySpace page. In fact, I like it better and better as it goes along; the epic, trippy part towards the end is just kick-ass. So I guess I’ll have to check out the group’s latest, The Harvest Floor, when it comes on January 20 (here in North America – everywhere else gets it in the weeks following).

So? Any Cattle Decapitation fans in the house who wanna tell me what I’ve been missing?
