Thanks very much for the cd Mr Ned. I are very happy. While looking for the tracklisting I was made even happier by the fact there is reissues & box set action happening. Now I must search out the finer indie stores in the area for such things.

In haplessly furrowing my brow, thinking of what to cover for an impending selection for The New Yorker's "Nightlife" section, I couldn't help noticing that uber-meh nightclub, Satalia (37 W.26th street) is playing host to an act dubbed FRUIT on July 21. Could this be that same Fruit that Patrick of the KoD started? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Patrick's new Stephen Hero album it out, if anyone is still listening. His voice is still great and Julian guests on one track - what a tease!
― Mr. Odd, Monday, 17 September 2007 01:56 (sixteen years ago) link
I've had everything but Love Is Hell for quite a while, and love it all pretty equally. Very consistent band. Still can't seem to track down that first record, though, and I've been looking for years...
― stephen, Monday, 17 September 2007 15:18 (sixteen years ago) link
So you're saying you need a CDR burn, then.
(Nothing's turned up on Amazon? Odd, it did get a nice rerelease on A&M over here.)
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 17 September 2007 15:21 (sixteen years ago) link
I don't do a lot of online shopping, too impersonal. Maybe it's time to check Amazon/eBay for this one though.
― stephen, Monday, 17 September 2007 15:24 (sixteen years ago) link
ah yes, Amazon is loaded. i may have to look into that.

Just placed an order for the 2CD version of Capsule, very excited. Are there any key tracks on the b-sides/live/acoustic/etc. disc that I ought to pay extra-special attention to?
― stephen, Friday, 21 September 2007 21:19 (sixteen years ago) link
Post a tracklisting for that again. There are indeed some spectacular ones.
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 21 September 2007 21:21 (sixteen years ago) link
danke
― Vinnie, Thursday, 1 August 2013 13:18 (ten years ago) link
Interesting direction for them to take, but definitely has some of that old magic. I could listen to those guitar lines in the bridge for hours. Can't wait for a high-quality version of this track and the rest of the album!

thoughts on the record? i dunno how much is warm nostalgia fuzzy feelings but i dig so far.
― adam, Wednesday, 16 October 2013 19:41 (ten years ago) link
It's very good indeed -- sorry, thought I had posted on it here already. Very much a maturer band lyrically/sonically but it's still undeniably them, and the fact that they come roaring out of the gate with the first song is a good thing.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 16 October 2013 19:43 (ten years ago) link
I've been giving Folly a few listens this week and am a bit on the fence so far, but I often take a while to really appreciate things. Definitely a few standouts, including "Oak Tree" and "Extravagance" but the one that really gives me the old-school KoD neck prickles is "I Wish It Would Snow", absolutely gorgeous.

Just a heads up, KOD will be playing a live in-studio set at KEXP tomorrow night 9pm Pacific. Stream it online.

The Lost Girls album finally came out! Cherry Red just released it with a bonus disc and it's damn good. Heidi Berry's vocals often bring to mind Sandy Denny and Linda Thompson and the addition of Patrick's sensibilities and early sampling / programming is very compelling.
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Wednesday, 12 November 2014 20:53 (nine years ago) link
Yeah it's a fun listen.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 12 November 2014 21:36 (nine years ago) link
Anyone get the new box set? Unfortunately it seems to be missing "White Horses" and on Love Is Hell "Prize" has skipping on it, along with booklet printing errors according to some reviewers.
It's only the One Little Indian stuff so it doesn't have some singles.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Monday, 15 May 2017 22:46 (six years ago) link
Yeah the B-sides comp was slightly screwed up, so no "White Horses" (or "What We Really Wanted to Do," IIRC). My girlfriend, also a huge fan, ordered it -- it's nice, glitches aside, but the only tracks I didn't have were the radio sessions.
Patrick F was on the Tom Robinson show the other night -- great career-overview of an interview, well worth a listen

I'm game for everything Patrick is involved with. He's just released the second Oskar's Drum album with Yves Altana, it's very dark and heavy:
https://oskarsdrum.bandcamp.com/
The first one's very good too though not as immediate as this one. Frankly, I like these much more than the Kitchens comeback album "Folly".
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Wednesday, 31 October 2018 18:47 (five years ago) link
Patrick's announced his new Stephen Hero album out in November will be his last album.
https://patrickfitzgerald.bandcamp.com/album/deciduous-eccentric
It's a lovely listen -- he very kindly sent me an advance the other day -- and it's a striking note to wrap up his career on. Here's the video for the single:

Did he give a reason for his retirement?
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Friday, 27 September 2019 17:43 (four years ago) link
Maybe he just wants to chill?
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 27 September 2019 18:06 (four years ago) link
???but he's been super chill this whole time???
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Friday, 27 September 2019 20:36 (four years ago) link
I hope he's not ill! I know he's a doctor, and his new single is called "Patient Here Myself."
― henry s, Friday, 27 September 2019 20:41 (four years ago) link
I didn't get the sense from that in our exchange.
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 27 September 2019 21:09 (four years ago) link
Very obsessed with Kitchens right now. Was happy to see this revive a few days ago.
