Ha!
Thanks for watching that. We're fortunate we had someone in the crowd who did such a nice job filming the thing - I think she's a friend of Bob's. My current avatar is a still from that performance, btw.

Yeah I thought it looked familiar. I just heard Be Yourself. I think I prefer your drummer's vocals over Jack's actually. Nice avi Steve-o - and you're wearing a PT shirt underneath your Hells Angels jacket too

Heh, I've got the same thing. I think I prefer the debut, which was intended as the soundtrack for an experimental rock ballet, whatever that means  Pictures From Cyclus 7 though is an entirely different beast. It's from 76 and it shows as well - maybe not in the most flattering way though...

Last 2 tracks of Kayo Dot's HUBARDO |
What's really strange is that these last two tracks, listened in isolation away from the whole album, sound like they are from a completely different album. Hubardo starts out like a dark black metal album and gradually morphs into a jazz fusion album. Really strange. What a piece of work this is.

Hands down better than Celine Dion. Most albums are that way, anyways, by default. 
I think the only reason I discovered Efterklang was because of iTunes. Their albums were on sale, so I bought Parades/Under Giant Trees and Magic Chairs.

I've seen them live a couple of times. The first being at the Roskilde Festival some years ago. I knew nothing about them, but then again some of the best experiences at festivals tend to be the ones you don't plan imo. I do remember dancing quite a bit.

^^So what you're telling me is that there's actually people out there, who aren't Danish, who know about these guys?
I really dig the album and don't know why it's gotten the bad rep it has, but I do prefer their earlier work nonetheless. Hey if you're interested in these guys, then I just posted a recent concert of em in the "I need vocal orientated post-rock" thread. It's a performance with the Wordless Music Orchestra, and the whole thing is professionally caught on film.

Will check it out! I prefer their earlier work as well. In fact, Magic Chairs is my least favorite even counting Piramida, but it still has some great tracks on it, despite its sometimes passionless pathos.
