"Pantheon Of The Lesser was composed over a period of two years in Ocean's home studio in Portland, Maine. As the seasons passed each track was written, re-written, played and then re-played as layers were slowly stripped away until the true essence of the song was revealed. Once Ocean entered the studio it took another two years to deconstruct Pantheon Of The Lesser until they had found the essence of their writing. This disciplined deconstructionist approach to songwriting is how Ocean takes it to the next level of the abyss. The result of this compositional technique is over an hour of strictly bare instrumentation and a kind of natural heavyness that slowly rises and falls in a pure organic fashion. Everything in its own time. Simply profound. Heavy like Schoenberg. Limited edition of 500 copies. Letterpressed dust cover style outer jacket and screen printed inner jackets. Deluxe papers used. Pressed at RTI & cut at Salt for premium sound. D side includes a cover of the Swans 'You're Not Real Girl' and a cover of Roy Orbison's 'It's Over.' Jackets printed at Reuben J. Little's 43rd Parallel Press in Portland, Maine."
