5. Kayo Dot - The Manifold Curiosity

In the fifteen minutes of "The Manifold Curiosity" we’re thrown into a long forgotten world – the environment of dark, fantastic motifs of, perhaps, Odilon Redon, covered by spider web and monochrome dreams in decay, haunted by father time as he whispers death to our ears. Instruments shadow each other in polyphonic restrain and yet culminate in excess when the central theme surges like an opium vision of melodic saxophone metaphors, the calm after the storm then leading to a final orgasmic nightmare of guitar wails and demon screams. A piece of symbolist art two centuries late, a complex, grand composition that distills the best of the band’s metal years as maudlin of the Well and enchants it with the alchemy of romantic decadence as much as with the intellectuality of modernism, "The Manifold Curiosity" shows Kayo Dot at its tightest, which in 2003 (and even now) meant one of the most ‘new music’-sounding bands in popular music.
