Gatefold 2LP Version, Pressed On Red Vinyl. If Spock's Beard have taught us anything over their 30+ years in the business, it's that they have no interest in becoming their own tribute act. The Archaeoptimist - their latest offering \u0026amp; first release on Madfish - is not a retreat into old habits, but a recalibration. Just when you think they're settling in, they kick the walls out instead. At the centre of this particular storm is Ryo Okumoto, whose fingerprints are all over the album - not just as a performer, but as a driving creative force. Teaming up with co-writer Michael Whiteman (I Am the Manic Whale) \u0026amp; longstanding bandmembers Alan Morse \u0026amp; Ted Leonard, Ryo has helped shape an album that is undeniably Spock's Beard with a characteristic wry smile to boot. The album was produced by Okumoto \u0026amp; recorded at each band member's respective home studios. Esteemed producer Rich Mouser (Dream Theater\/Weezer) takes up the mixing \u0026amp; mastering duties. Over more than 30 years, Spock's Beard have established themselves as one of modern progressive music's most exciting \u0026amp; consistent acts, with live shows as renowned as their studio work \u0026amp; tours that draw sold-out audiences across the globe. Their albums regularly chart worldwide, with 2018's Noise Floor reaching #3 on the UK Official Rock \u0026amp; Metal Chart \u0026amp; #6 on the Official Progressive Albums Chart. This edition of The Archaeoptimist is presented as a 2LP gatefold package \u0026amp; is pressed on red vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvisible (06:33)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Electric Monk (06:16)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Afourthoughts (07:31)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e St. Jerome in the Wilderness (08:46)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Archaeoptimist (Part 1) (16:53)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Archaeoptimist (Part 2) (04:14)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Next Step (10:58)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e UPC \u0026gt; 636551832618 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Format \u0026gt; New Vinyl \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Label \u0026gt; Madfish Records Imp \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Release Date \u0026gt; Release Date: 11.21.25 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57420402295119,"sku":"636551832618","price":8.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/8725\/2047\/files\/4457114-3447873.jpg?v=1775623097","url":"https:\/\/vibesvinyl.com\/products\/spocks-beard-archaeoptimist-140gm-red-vinyl-preorder","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
