Kayo Dot - Choirs of the Eye (2003)

Genre: Avant-Garde
Website: Myspace
For Fans Of: maudlin of the Well, Toby Driver

What is there to say about Kayo Dot's Choirs of the Eye? This record pushes the musical boundries in every direction possible, manifesting itself as the most progressive (and my personal favourite) album of the last decade. Toby Driver has composed five of the most exquisite arrangements in recent memory; from the atrociously heavy "The Antique" to the beautifully serene and ethereal "Wayfarer", every second of each song asserts itself as deeply experimental, ground-breaking, and above all, emotionally moving. Death metal; classical; jazz; instead of naming every single genre attributing to this piece of work - and trust me, there are many - it's easier to say that this is music: true, unadulterated, heartfelt music.

For fans of music.
