Open Sesame is the first full-length album by Shaft.
It was released in 2004 on Lil' Chief Records, although a number of the songs featured had been in the band's live set for almost a decade.
The band played a show to support the launch of the album in which an attempt was made to feature as many ex-members of the band as possible.
The show culminated with nine people on stage, including two drummers and four guitarists.
