Kayo Dot is an American avant-rock/experimental music group that was formed in 2003 by Toby Driver. They released their debut album Choirs of the Eye on John Zorn's Tzadik Records label that year. Tzadik's descriptive label on that album reads: "Kayo Dot powerfully integrates elements of modern classical composition with the layers of guitars and vocals more common to rock and metal. With a compositional map that is strict in form yet malleable in execution, Kayo Dot uses a vast array of instrumentation to create an exciting convergence of violence and serenity."

Since then, Kayo Dot's music has undergone several identity shifts, largely influenced by the band's constantly-changing lineup and instrumentation. One predominant element of Driver's compositional voice which remains consistent throughout all of Kayo Dot's output, however, is the band's use of abstract timing and performance cues. This lends to the music the element of "malleability" mentioned in Tzadik's description above.

The music of Kayo Dot is commonly categorized as post-metal, post-rock, progressive rock, or avant-garde. Their songs involve complex instrumentation (composed by singer and frontman Driver). They are substantially longer than typical rock songs, usually ranging from 8 to 18 minutes in length.

"Torture chamber pop." "Darkwave jazz." "Siren rock." These are a few of the many attempts to describe the sound of Jaggery, an art-rock collective which weaves harp, viola, piano, contrabass, and drum kit into a universe of its own, setting the scene for "one of the most beautiful voices in modern music." Powerful enough to harness the fiery churnings beneath a volcano as well as the ethereal light of a dying star, frontwoman Singer Mali's voice regularly leaves listeners viscerally stunned and with goosebumps.

Alluring mélange:
the lack of care in the
toss of a hand barely holding
a cigarette,
the boredom and lust of
nonchalant breasts,
yet suddenly the firm insistence upon
perfection—
like a finely crafted bustier
with small stitching—
ever fluxing between
tension and release.

Flights of Song, Gigs of Fancy
April 28, 2015
dear robins, sparrows, and chickadees,

i write with news of noteworthy shows! as feathered things and forsythias get the spring party started, i am ready to join the excitement and burst open with new songs and collaborations. may will be bookended with performances that i am thrilled to share with the finally-thawed world!

our concert coincides with a temporary exhibit of some of Leonardo's works rarely seen this side of the ocean, and is not to be missed! and though we are always happy to play and collaborate on songs written mostly by singer Mali Sastri, for the first time ever, each of the band members has gotten a chance to write a song inspired by da Vinci for jaggery to play. i myself have written a song inspired by Leonardo's codex on the flight of birds, and i am super excited to debut it, especially with how amazing my bandmates make it sound!!!

with chirps in my heart,
petaluma

apart from cricket and £football£, which sports give you the biggest formalist boner? and what are the most esoteric sports you follow?

regularly watch 3-cushion (carom) billiards on youtube - it's formalist near-perfection - a standardised table, no pockets, 3 balls and essentially only one rule and yet a multitude of methods and considerations arising at each visit to the baize, the sainted baize, the verdant carpet of dreams

tennis is a great formalist sport let down only by the physical limitations of the human body - but less so than in certain other sports

water polo is foul & dreadfully contrived and were rugby to not exist it'd probably be the worst sport in any formal sense, i feel such a void in my soul whenever i glimpse it

golf is anti-formalism but in a nice way

i'll listen to that song tomorrow :) it's too late for loud sounds now

but yeah, carom billiards. would very much like to own a table later in life - it is one of only a very few material ambitions i have

also while i hate rugby i actually, truly, think that afl is kinda ok-to-good based on what i've seen - it's formally much looser and more chaotic, and has a far more satisfying scoring system - spiritually much closer to the gaa sports than to the abysmal trench warfare of rugby

Is it known *why*...

...he doesn't use his surname? 31.52.198.186 (talk) 03:46, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

The article doesn't really say he doesn't. It's hard to tell what, if anything, is different here compared to, say, Madonna, Elvis or Morrissey. JöG (talk) 21:19, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

He's Lawrence. That's why. End of discussion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.104.195.40 (talk) 13:35, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
