Background information über 'Every Rock, Every Half-Truth Under Reason'

Kayo Dot returns with their eleventh studio album "Every Rock, Every Half-Truth Under Reason", commemorating the 20th anniversary of their seminal debut "Choirs of the Eye" by reuniting the original lineup. This bold musical statement from ever-evolving composer and mastermind Toby Driver marks both a return and a progression, revisiting the compositional practices that defined their debut while pushing forward into uncharted territory. Rejecting traditional rock structures and the more predictable contours of metal, the album shapes a sound that feels familiar and alien at once, where custom-designed microtonal organs and guitars weave an effort to reconcile the impossible tension between past and future.

Moving away from the typical emphasis on low-end frequencies, the album floats instead in the upper spectrum, where textures become more fragile, more intimate, and simultaneously more abrasive and terrifying. This Kayo Dot release is also haunted by the ghost of a future to come - the spectre of AI-generated creativity. The increasing presence of artificial composition and algorithmic aesthetics caused Driver to write in ways that resist prediction, composing music that slips from the grasp of systems designed to anticipate us. Much of the album is an effort to move against the grain of legibility, creating something that defies pattern recognition.

For fans of:
Maudlin of the Well, Ulver, Swans, Neurosis, Blut Aus Nord, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and Deathspell Omega.
