Widely regarded as one of the best and most collectable underground hip-hop albums of the ‘90s, Dr. Octagonecologyst introduces the character of Dr. Octagon, a homicidal, extraterrestrial, time-traveling gynecologist, and surgeon. Kool Keith’s abstract lyricism explores themes of medicine, space travel, and more setting it apart from mainstream hip-hop while redefining underground hip-hop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe outrageously offbeat humor and psychedelic storytelling gives the album a cinematic quality which is perfectly complimented by complex and moody trip-hop inspired beats produced by Dan the Automator (Handsome Boy Modeling School, Gorillaz, Deltron 3030). The Boom Bap beats are further enhanced by the legendary DJ Q-Bertwhose remarkable scratching gives the album its turntablism edge.\u003cbr\u003eIt's hard to exaggerate the role that Dr. Octagon played in revitalizing underground hip-hop. Dr. Octagonrepresented the first truly new, genuine alternative to commercial hip-hop and continues to gain popularity as a true hip-hop cult classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2LP IVC Collector’s Edition\u003cbr\u003e* Gatefold jacket for the first time\u003cbr\u003e* Matte finish album jacket\u003cbr\u003e* Embossed Dr. Octagon image with red foil artist logo\u003cbr\u003e* Disc 1: Opaque Bone with Red Splatter\u003cbr\u003e* Disc 2: Opaque Bone with Black Splatter\u003cbr\u003e* Remastered audio\u003cbr\u003e* Individually numbered\u003cbr\u003e* One-time pressing of 3,000\u003cbr\u003e* Printed sleeves\u003cbr\u003e* Includes bonus remixes:\u003cbr\u003e    * Bear Witness (Automator's 2 Turntables And A Razor Blade Re-Edit) 6:46\u003cbr\u003e    * Blue Flowers (Automator Remix) 5:22\u003cbr\u003e    * 3000 (Automator 1,2 Remix) 3:24\u003cbr\u003e    * Blue Flowers (Prince Paul’s ‘So Beautiful’ Mix) 4:04\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Dr. Octagonecologyst's afterlife is nearly as weird as its conception and its essence.
