Yeah. I like it pretty well. Not as good as the other ones. I have a feeling it'll grow on me.

Honestly, I actually do really like it. It's a step in the right direction.

Is it?

It has a few good moments. Pretty meh overall though. I guess it might be a LITTLE better than Blue Lambency. I just find it hard to listen to. Dude's a talented guy but the first two albums just kill this stuff.

I like Kayo Dot a lot but I just don't see myself ever wanting to put this album on again after the past few listens.

It is, I really like the ideas they have on this, it's just not pulled off as well as it could. I think the new release will be stronger unless Driver completely changes the sound again.

Also to note is that this didn't start out as a Kayo Dot release so who knows! And of course it's not as good as Choirs of the Eye or Dowsing Anemone with Copper Tongue... but what IS? He'll never beat those albums.

Speaking of which, who likes Dowsing more than Choirs? I do!

I'm curious to hear the EP they're working on. Hope it expands on this sound. I was really excited that they were aiming for a 'goth jazz fusion' thing but didn't think they took it as far as they could. I hope they keep working at it.

Kayo Dot records seems to tire me most of the time even their tadzik album is great.

Seeing them live was fun but it's kind of a buzzkill if you need to tune for 5-10 minutes after every song.

Nope a lot of people think Dowsing is boring. Plus I suppose Choirs is easy to like due to it's post-rock crescendos and it's pleasant sound heh.

Is Mia, the hottest girl alive, still in the band? Then, it'd still be fun!

Yeah she's still in it. The core of the band is her and Toby Driver I'm positive.

Here's some non-album goodies for you guys:
live on wmbr (features amazing stripped down versions of Marathon, The Antique and Wayfarer. sadly lacks the ending monologue in Marathon!): http://www.mediafire.com/?gynnmkqjiwi

live in portsmouth, nh (this recording is really quiet... but the loud parts just seem emphasised due to it): http://www.mediafire.com/?fxmj2t3djw5

split with bloody panda (you've probably all heard this but... I've never seen Kayo Dot so lively): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8S1I2ZU0

All this is out of print or unreleased so I'm sure it's cool to give links.

Wow, didn't realize Coyote was about Yuko Sueta, Toby's ex-girlfriend, who was dying of cancer when they made the album -- and has recently passed away.

That gives the whole album a completely different meaning for me, and is extremely creepy to boot...
