It's funny how this collection of demos almost acts as a stepping stone in the folk sound between 2007's "Sucks Blood" and 2017's "MOACOH"; though the general focus changed, the firm roots of OCS never quite left
The "Dog Poison"/"Castlemania" jingle-jangle guitars are here in force ('Wait Let's Go'/'Say You Love Another') along with more traditional folk like 'Cat Food' and 'I Am Smoke'
Other curios here include the odd groovy synth on 'The Finger' and the gloomy and trudging 'Regular Meat'

For what is effectively an outtakes album (the first three tracks being from the sessions for 'Face Stabber'), "Metamorphosed" doesn't fuck about in any sense of the word.
Said first three tracks get your shit pumping hard; 'Saigant' especially is a god-tier starter. The following 37 minutes after that (moreso alluding to 'I Got A Lot' here) is purely "yeah, we love CAN; here's our take on a Tago Mago-style jam".
Two complete polar opposite extremes, and yet they work together magnificently. Xtra Happy
