There are people who prefer Dowsing or BLD over Choirs? Nonsense!

Choirs is one of the greatest albums of all-time, as far as I'm concerned. I love most of Dowsing (especially Immortelle, and to a lesser extent, Aura), but the second half is a bit tough to enjoy in its entirety. I have to agree with Pnoom! about BLD, for the most part. It has its moments, and it sounds phenominal, but ultimately I get little out of it.

hes baaaaacck....

lol nice to see you around again pnoom.
I like about half of the songs on BLd. the first 3 are very good but after that they just fall off. Symmetrical Arizona is nice but its still not better than the first three songs. 3 stars. maybe 3 1/2
Choirs = more than just a five star rating
dowsing = ****1/2

BLD is a rather tedious album.  I used to love it, but then I got over the fact that it's a Kayo Dot album and I find it hard to sit through now.

It's unfortunate.

I thought I heard May somewhere but I can't find the link so maybe my memory made that up.

Besides a couple of loose comments by Toby which basically restate that it's going to be the premiere of a new full-length piece by him, nothing much to go on.

It's all pretty mysteriously veiled.

I must say, the news of the next album kicks ass.
Hoping it's supremely epic stuff.

There's news of a new KD album!? Where?


Dude check out the links in the previous page.

Well, if you didn't notice already, he barely talks about the band at all


Also, he posts around a lot of other bands too, if you look around.

I don't even have an account over there.
I've been lurking at ultimatemetal.com for a while now.
I didn't expect TB to have actually posted that much in his own band forum section, normally the band member don't post much at all (and that's even if they have an account there).
