Ornament and Crime is the seventh studio album by American rock band Self. Originally intended for release in August of 2003, it was pushed back a year to August 2004 until it was delayed indefinitely by the dissolution of Self's label, DreamWorks Records.[1] It was eventually released independently thirteen years later, in August 2017,[2] which also saw the physical release of previously Internet-only B-side album, Porno, Mint & Grime.[3] Prior to this, Ornament and Crime was only legally available via streaming on Self's Myspace and YouTube channels. One of the songs in the album, Out with a Bang was first heard in the 2001 Sci-fi comedy film Evolution.[4]
