Anyone like Kayo Dot?[views:4387][posts:19]___________________________________ [Jan 28,2006 12:23pm - brian_dc ""] I just got their new CD on Robotic Empire in the mail. Drowning Anemone with Copper Tongue. The Gracenote tag on it actually labels it as "classical" it's a very bizarre album but I think a lot of people into artsy-type music would dig it. oh, they used to be Maudlin of the Well. |
| _________________________________________________ [Jan 28,2006 12:25pm - whiskey_weed_and_women ""] i enjoy their music |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 28,2006 12:27pm - brian_dc ""] I never would have heard of them if I didn't have the same guitar teacher at my college as Greg had. |
| ______________________________________________ [Jan 28,2006 12:27pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Didn't like it as much as 'Choirs of the Eye' or the Maudlin of the Well albums (or demo), but it's still quite fascinating. |

| __________________________________________ [Jan 28,2006 3:27pm - CarrotsandSticks ""] [img] I saw them live in Providence last week and they were epic, heh. Took that pic. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 28,2006 3:28pm - brian_dc ""] dammit! I missed them. |

| ______________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 1:38am - the_reverend ""] I've had rthe new CD for a while... but I forgot to listen to it. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 1:47am - anonymous ""] kayo dot is problably the best band to come out of new england um...ever. in my opinion america as well. but i am just a fucking huge fan. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 3:18am - Anthony nli ""] kayo dot is one of those bands that I appreciate conceptually but just sounds pretentious and long winded when I sit down and listen to them. I want to like them but just can't really care about it too much. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 3:22am - brian_dc ""] I think it's some quality music...I think you could dissect it and all that stuff, but that's probably where it would become stale and pretentious. The songs/sounds are just good and different from pretty much everything else in my collection. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 3:24am - cdan nli ""] the reviews make them sound amazing, but all the stuff i've heard bores me to tears. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 3:26am - brian_dc ""] yeah, i think reading reviews about music like this are a bad idea. Every reviewer must think they can make their career sucking the dick of experimental band. I just think it sounds neat. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 29,2006 10:24am - wade ""] I've had the new record for a while. Up to this point, I've spun it a total of 3 times and I found it to be pretty forgettable, unremarkable, etc..BUT it's definitely one of those records that at least seems like it'll get more rewarding over time so I haven't given up on it. I certainly give them credit for not trying to get popular the easy way, cheesing out and all. |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 11:51am - Joe/NotCommon ""] I am pretty sure everyone likes kayo dot |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 1:07pm - almost.ian ""] i did a show with them last night. good people and a very good band. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 1:12pm - infoterror ""] I LIKED MAUDLIN OF THE WELL BUT THEY DRIFTED AWAY FROM COHERENCE LIKE A DRUNK PASSING OUT UNDER A DONG EXCEPT VERY COMPLEX ZZZ, WHERE IS HAVOHEJ CD? TODAY I AM RUSSIAN-ENGLISH JEW. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 29,2006 2:24pm - anonymous ""] They played with that depeche mode band from Providence honeyhander last week |
