| 4.5 superb | FootToFace | April 16th 10 | dark, evil and moody just like Toby Driver described. fans of Scott Walker's The Drift will like this one, especially if they like some jazz thrown in.

| 2.5 average | Iluvatar | April 16th 10 | There was a review on rateyourmusic that pretty much said this reminds them of Choirs of the Eye minus the metal. I would pretty much agree, except also strip the wide eyed wonder that album made me have. Toby Driver is dead.

| 2.5 average | Cuban Pete | April 21st 10 | While there's still glimpses into Toby Driver's genius here, the overall product doesn't have much direction. Coyote feels like it would be a debut record from Kayo Dot because it's trying to figure out what to do with the insane amount of composition ideas. It's not necessarily a bad album, but it's not good either.

| 4.5 superb | Lions | April 19th 10 | Probably going to become a 5 in a few more listens. This is probably what dying sounds like--and I mean that as a compliment.

| 3.5 great | auraasylumwall | April 16th 10 | So far I'm going to go with a 3. The way I feel about this album is how I felt when I first listened to "Lambency"; I know I enjoy it but I'm not achieving maximum enjoyment. As with everything Kayo Dot, it'll take some time before it "clicks", but when it does, I'll probably soil myself.

| 3.5 great | toolpeth182 | March 27th 10 | off of their myspace:
"The music is also more rhythmically-driven than any previous Kayo Dot work"
god, i can't wait.

| 2.0 poor | EasterInTheBatcave | December 20th 15 | Kayo Dot's weakest album. Most of these songs paddle around, directionless, and end without having gone anywhere. Opener "Calonyction Girl" is the exception-- it has some cool riffs, and though the violin is a little nauseating at times, overall the song works.

| 5.0 classic | AnimalsAsSummit | November 23rd 14 | no, no, no! this one is one of the greatest, most haunting records you'll ever hear. it sounds like anthropomorphic creatures of some sort having a cacophonous, lantern-tinged ritual deep in a mystical wood. the emotional aspect of this album is beyond words; I'd recommend this to anyone.

| 0.0 | Lambda | August 10th 14 | Coyote is frequently regarded as Kayo Dot's weakest effort. I think it's about on par with their last release, Blue Lambency Downward. That isn't a good thing, because I didn't really like that album either. The issue with Coyote is that it is just, well, kind of boring. Most of these songs paddle around, directionless, and then end. Maybe that's because this is supposedly a long-form composition; either way, it's not very interesting music. Opener "Calonyction Girl" is the exception-- it has some cool riffs, and though the violin is a little nauseating at times, overall the song works. 2.2

| 5.0 classic | FewCherMereJets | April 13th 10 | Leaked...
It's amazing.
Not so rhythmically driven like they said, but it's definitely amazing.
Spooky, ethereal.
My only problem is that it's short, but they've got another EP on the way.
