Octagon by Anton Barbeau
“This song is so messed-up and yet so perfect! There's actually a more conventional recorded version with Ant backed by the Bevis Frond, but I think I like this one just a little bit more. Anton told me that it was written with a 13-year-old in mind ("Octagon" was the name of a school paper), so that explains the first verse that he later altered for subsequent versions so no one would accuse him of lusting after little girls. Love that startling guitar solo!”
