KAYO DOT - Presents Third Single From Upcoming Album

USA based avant-garde doom project Kayo Dot has released their intricate percussive maze and third single entitled "The Necklace", taken from the forthcoming new album Moss Grew On The Swords And Plowshares Alike, which is slated for release on the 29th of October via Prophecy Productions.

"The track "The Necklace" is a visceral elegy to the catastrophic effects of despair", explains lyricist Jason Byron. "Life is a weight that crushes some beneath tremendous pressure, and these are not to be shamed or exiled or damned."

The stark frailty of the human condition is the overall theme running through the veins of Kayo Dot's tenth regular studio album Moss Grew On The Swords And Plowshares Alike. In the sprawling, churning musical multiverse of mostly multi-instrumentalist Toby Driver's creation that has never accepted nor cared for any artificial borders of genre and incorporated for example rock, metal, classical music, goth, indie, pop, and jazzy structures, this avant-garde album appears to tilt towards a more harsh as well as heavy approach than on some of the previous recordings - and considering its dark and melancholic undertones may be given the epithet doom.
