Kayo Dot - Blasphemy (2019)

'Blasphemy' is Kayo Dot's most forthright statement ever - directly confronting the world at-hand, foregoing the encouraged escapism found ubiquitously throughout the rest of their catalogue, and embracing the perspective a band in such a rare position as this can bring. Much more energetic than the ebb and flow of 2003's 'Choirs of the Eyes' and a more straight-ahead rock album than 'Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue' (2006) that channels the playfulness of 2010's 'Coyote'. Pulling from elements of black metal, jazz, pop and Driver's own wild sonic concoctions, Kayo Dot is constantly evolving.
