Why is this Kayo Dot album gay?

nobody said you have to like it, you just aren't allowed to hate it without hearing it first. :loco:

nah, if anyone is interested in this stuff, maudlin of the Well is the place to start. Kayo Dot would be pretty weird for first-timers. i mean i listen to bizarre shit and i didn't even like it for like 6 months.
 
ranking them for shitz and giggles:

Choirs of the Eye
Bath
Leaving Your Body Map
Spoonion shitz
My Fruit Psychoballs (i don't much care for this album, too random)
 
I'm listening to "Dreaming Shrines" by maudlin at the moment.

How can any self-respecting music fan not like this stuff? :p
 
Dude...

My Fruit RULES!!!!

I've given it less time than the other two, yet I still enjoy it more. "Undine and Underwater Flowers" might be my favorite by the band.
 
The song I'd reccomend to a newcomer would be "Birth Pains of Astral Projection." I think even the band has said that it is their most "comprehensive" song (i.e. it contains all of the elements that make them great).

Bath and Leaving are being reissued.
yeah with boner tracks and everything, i'll swipe them up post haste!

shit, the freakin office at my apt. has had the toby driver solo album for like 5 days now, i keep forgetting to go pick it up.
 
Well, we get there after driving for 3 hours, find out the show starts at 9:30 instead of 8, dick around in downtown Wilmington for a while, sit through 3 bands, play pool with Toby Driver, buy a bunch of merch, see KD play for 30 minutes, show ends around 2:15, we get lost for a while trying to find I-40 again, finally make it back it Chapel Hill at 5 and I'm skipping class, still tired as balls.
 
KAYO DOT Complete National Tour, Prepare To Release New Album - Dec. 1, 2005
Boston metal/jazz/noise octet KAYO DOT have completed a seven-week national tour of the U.S., returning home to Boston last week to play the final show of the 46-date run. KAYO DOT played shows with a diverse array of bands on the tour, including STARKWEATHER, MOUTH OF THE ARCHITECT, THE WAYWARD, GAZA, and dozens more.

KAYO DOT vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Toby Driver made this statement about the tour, and about KAYO DOT's plans for the near future: "We played with some awesome bands and generally had ourselves more together this time around than last time. It was our second time out as a band so we knew what to expect. We got an amazing response for the new material. Next, we're going to do a few long weekends when the album comes out in January."

KAYO DOT violinist Mia Matsumiya commented: "Our most successful shows this time were definitely in Columbus, Hattiesberg, Boise, LA, Denton, Miami, DC, and New York. Thanks so much to everyone who supported us in any way, whether you set up any of our shows, attended our shows, bought some merchandise, performed with us, let us crash us at your place, hung out with us, fed us, promoted us, flyered, anything!"

KAYO DOT's Robotic Empire debut full-length, "Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue", hits stores January 10.
