Manchester space rock trio Amplifier released their new album ‘The Octopus’ earlier this year. In the near 14 years of their existence, Amplifier have suffered from more than their fair share of the kind of pitfalls that the music industry can throw at a band, nevertheless they set about creating their own music for themselves and their fans. ‘The Octopus’ is two hours long, has sixteen tracks, none of them short and several very long, and took four years to make. The Octopus was entirely self-funded and self-created. Watch the video for Planet Of Insects here:
