Eugene Mirman's 500-track epic includes 195 orgasms

American comic Eugene Mirman is releasing his next stand-up show as a seven-album box set that includes him crying for 45 minutes, 195 orgasms and an introduction to Russian.

I'm Sorry (You're Welcome) contains more than 500 tracks including outgoing voicemail messages and a new-age 'fuckscape' for 'lovebirds and adventurous friends'.

The album is primarily a stand-up show record in Seattle, largely similar to his last Netflix special Vegan On His Way To the Complain Store.

But packaged into a set of LPs (or digital downloads) are 500 extra tracks, including a sound effects library voiced by Mirman.

The comic, who stars in animated comedy Bob's Burgers, called it the 'biggest, longest, dumbest' comedy album. 'I've wanted to make this album for a long time,' he added – but admitted that some of the ideas he brainstormed didn't come off, explaining: 'You quickly run out of secrets to whisper to your dick.'

He said: 'Since so much of what I wanted to do seemed sort of simple, I bought a moderately good podcasting microphone and actually recorded myself crying for 45 minutes on a sun porch in Cape Cod. A lot of people ask me if the crying is looped, which it is not. I cried for 45 minutes.'

In the sleeve notes, Daniel Kitson calls the release 'a parade of excellence punctuated with benevolent explosions of the purist, uncut, nonsense'.

The album is released on Sub Pop on October 30, priced $15 as a download, $60 as a vinyl box set, $225 on bathrobe and $1,200 on chair – the latter two containing MP3 players preloaded with the tracks. Preorder here
