"Longbox Option Package" is the name of a 2006 retrospective box set by the surreal prank call artist known only as Longmont Potion Castle. It was released in an extremely limited quantity by the independent label D.U. Records, and only occasionally appears for sale on eBay. [ [http://www.thenervemagazine.com/2007/02/article_template.php?id=9 The Nerve Magazine Online. Longmont Potion Castle ] ]

The set contains seven audio discs and one DVD. Included are "Volume 1", "Volume 2", "Volume 3", "Volume 4", "Late-Eighties-Vein", "Volume 5" and "Volume 7". Although most of the recordings had been previously released, the majority of them are out of print and difficult to find. "Volume 7", the box set's only disc of new material, is actually comprised entirely of grind/metal music that was included on the original cassette pressings of the albums, but had to be cut due to the time restraints of compact discs — the cassette versions were all approximately 90 minutes, whereas compact discs at the time could only hold about 75 minutes. The DVD contains the videos "Live From Longmont Potion Castle", "Return to Longmont Potion Castle" as well as several other clips.

In 2006, the artist behind Longmont Potion Castle claimed that "Longbox Option Package" would be his final release under the moniker. About two years later, an album of entirely new recordings, "Volume 6", was also porported to be Longmont's last.

Reviews

"Longbox Option Package" was named as one of 2006's best releases by San Francisco's Aquarius Records. [ [http://www.aquariusrecords.org/2006faves.html [ aquarius records staff faves 2006 ] ] They also cited it as "Easily the best, funniest, most bizarre series of crank calls ever," and likened his demeanor and humor to that of alternative comic, Steven Wright. [ [http://www.aquariusrecords.org/bin/search.cgi/keyword=longoptibox Aquarius Records: Search Results for Keyword: Longoptibox ] ] The release was also hailed by comedy and music critic, Mark Prindle.
