"Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue" captures Kayo Dot's transcendent musical vision -- a combination of doom, jazz, indie, ambient, classical, and noise, recently described by The Washington Post as "heavy rock as a sort of chamber music" and by Blabbermouth.net as "mind expansion though long, unorthodox compositions". The album was recorded at Zing Recording Studios (Killswitch Engage, Unearth), produced by Kayo Dot composer/vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Toby Driver, and mastered by Alan Douches (Converge, Every Time I Die). Hot on the heels of a seven-week national tour this past fall, Kayo Dot returns to the road this January for a string of East Coast dates, beginning with the official record release show for "Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue".
