2005. This is what classical music was looking for in the 2000s. But if it saw this album, the treasure along the path it was walking, it would probably write it off. Total sonic control. Complete compositional awareness. Toby Driver is a master of his craft. And the music here is otherworldly.

In the newfound popularity of Kayo Dot, it may be easy to miss Toby Driver's debut solo LP. This album contains some of Toby's compositions that he considered too weird and off the wall for Kayo Dot. Despite the inherent quirkiness implied by that premise, Driver delivers some fairly interesting and palatable pieces just left of his stuff on Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue. Read the full review to check out the cool techniques he used to compose and record each song.

A really odd album. Toby Driver whining on some experimental-ish ambient-ish rock. Really liked the first track, tracks 2-3 are really forgettable, track 4 was ok. Meh - better jam some Kayo Dot, or another album of his. 3.4

I don't think I've been so disappointed in an album since Scott Walker's "The Drift". I really thought I was going to like this but I got about an hour of boredom with some occasionally unnerving sounds that just weren't enough to save this album.
