New News!

1) The show at Full Force 2 went spectacularly! Thank you so much to Jesse Krakow and Dave Bodie (of Time of Orchids), Tim Byrnes (of Friendly Bears), and Ron Varod (of So Is the Tongue) for filling in. They did an amazing, passionate, and meticulous job on VERY short notice. You guys are the best! And thank you to their bands for letting us borrow them.

2) Kayo Dot's Toby and Mia have another band called Tartar Lamb which will be touring to Seattle and back starting December 26th. Please check out our myspace page for sound clips and the dates... we'll also be accompanied by Tim and Andrew from Friendly Bears and will be performing some of Tim's music (Hazel-Rah) on this tour as well! The tour concludes January 19th in New York City joined by the James Plotkin/Tim Wyskida duo (ex-KHANATE, KHLYST, BLIND IDIOT GOD)!!

3) We have just very recently secured an agreement with Hydra Head Records to release the next Kayo Dot album! We plan to begin recording in late spring/early summer 2007, and are shooting for a late 2007/early 2008 release date! Wow!!

4) Finally, Greg Massi has decided to leave Kayo Dot to focus on his own music. We will miss him. Go, Greg, go!

 
So it looks like with Massi leaving the band, which is extremely unfortunate (just think of his lead guitar work and solos in the motW and KD albums!)that leaves just Toby and Mia in the band. I DO hope that there won't be a long break between Dowsing and the next full-length album, wish they solve the issue with finding new members well.
 
Another project sounds fascinating, I'd love to hear the compositions Toby has written for guitar and violin.
 
The new band's myspace is, by the way:

Utter PWNAGE!!! Pinch

It's really sad to see such a great guitarist go, but still the good news prevails over the sad ones.

I'll listen to Mia and Toby's band. It Should be interesting.

Thanks for the info Ivan! Big smile

Thanks for the update.

Good to know that they will be recording soon (and i'd like to hear the mia/toby stuff too). Hopefully, it will be as good (or better, if that's possible?) as their latest, which is definitely my favorite of the year.

While it's sad to see Massi go (he was great on Dowsing Anemone...), I still think Kayo Dot still is going to be awesome.

Massi's a loss but it hardly kills the excitement of a new album
