Yeah, Lollilove is cool! Fun mockumentary. Glad they kept it short.

Stained Glass EP is out there on the internet and I don't have a computer right now to obtain it. Bummer.

atsonicpark · 11.21.2010, 10:22 AM

well, Stained Glass EP is weird. weirdest thing they've done. derek, you know in scissor shock songs, how it'll get to those really odd ambient parts? this album sounds just like that! no shit! like the ambient parts on the 2 title tracks from my last album -- that's this album! no kidding.. it has that same type of "ambient but not really" unsettling thing going on with lots and lots of layers of hard to discern sounds, with quiet subdued droney layers constantly going while things on top are swirling around and bleeping. there's also parts -- mainly in the guitar -- that sound like uuuuuu. i'm not even joking. similiar tone.

It's going to take like 10 lsitens to reallly get into this one, but its certainly.. neat.

Derek · 11.21.2010, 11:27 AM

You're making me wet my pants in anticipation.

atsonicpark · 11.21.2010, 06:33 PM

I'm not kidding, you'll start laughing when you hear this new ep, when you envision what I mean.. it's as if you and I collaborated and Toby Driver just happened to be there, too! The first 2 minutes has all this xylophone and some weird distorted sounds.. the whole thing really has a completely new view on production. It really sounds like ASTRAL TRAVELS era uuuuuuu meets HOLE IN THE HEAD OF GOD era ss with some stuff from my last album, haha! It's killing me.

There's this weird ass keyboard going through some of it too.

It's honestly one of my favorite things they've done, the drums are so ridiculous.. they're just barely being played for some of it.

At about 3:42, it goes into this distorted-as-hell prog-rock riff and then all these bells and strings come in. There was a choir a few minutes ago.

It sounds like a soundtrack to Christmas or something.

I'm listening to Tartar Lamb now. Amazing.

That new Kayo Dot ep is the best thing they've done since Dowsing, btw. It's also a huge inspiration on me and the stuff I want to do on my next album!

Poor Kayo, they deserve the funds that they're lacking but I imagine they'll continue pushing.

EP was self-recorded, successfully done. I need to absorb this more.

Derek · 11.22.2010, 07:57 AM

Yeah Tartar Lamb is amazing, they've played live here more than Kayo Dot actually have! (Though I think whenever they've tried to play the UK some members get held up so it turns into just Mia and Toby playing. Hm.)

And yeah, Toby hates filesharing.. he said one time that he could barely sell any copies of the first Tartar Lamb album and was running at a huge financial loss because it was self-released and that he found a download link of it with over 1200 downloads or so (near the number he'd have to sell to break even). I SHOULD be able to hear it tonight. I'm going to download it... but I'm obviously going to buy it when it comes out, I own everything they've done besides the Bloody Panda split 12" (which I would own if it hadn't sold out)!

Derek · 11.22.2010, 11:16 AM

Just bought the new EP, didn't know it was available yet.

Derek · 11.22.2010, 11:42 AM

I read somewhere that the release was in January and this is just a limited release? Not very definite.

Yes! Have either you or Derek checked out Cleric? I heavily recommend that album Regressions they put out on WoM if not.

I didn't know the Kitty Song was still online! Thanks.

Adam, have you heard the Friendly Bears? They're good friends with Kayo Dot and have done a split with Infidel?/Castro!
