at 2:15 turn up your speakers as loud as they go. I dare you not to feel a wave of emotion rush you.

If I could only listen to one band the rest of my life, KoD might be the choice.

@vegankennedy Also it's from War of the Worlds, the book by H.G. Wells

@simionTheOne So true -- I remember thinking this as that great era came to an end. (I'm 44.) I'm glad you're enjoying the music of that time. Though I'm encouraged that pop/rock is getting better again as of late -- melody and texture are being rediscovered by musicians.

i tihnk the bad side of the 80's was that there was way too much good music in comparison with today, many of the great bands like this or the sound or wathever will be forgotten sooner or later,
let's just hope i can teach my kids in 20 years or so to listen to good music!
(only 18 now so i've got time i guess)

@heighzeus I thought that once too. Although now I might say The Verve.

I remember buying the Love Is Hell album (vinyl) in Antwerp. I still have it and it still is one of my all-time favourites.

Man, as soon as the vocals started my mind went way back to the days of living in the East Village in NYC, blasting these guys in my apartment with a btl of wine and some bud.
My bass player at the time introduced me to KOD...couldn't thank him enough...

Fitzgerald is like a gay Henry Rollins.

I still have LOVE AND HELL album , early CD I bought back then....

@KITCHENOFDISTINCTION: presumably some form of interior decoration store? Not a Kitchen salesman, surely?



One of my all time favorite bands and this has to be one of my favorite songs (along with Mainly Mournings). Does anyone have any idea what the title of this tune means??? Pls help.

This came from the liner notes of "Capsule, The Best of KOD 1988-94". The CD came out in 2003.
"One of our first songs. Julian wrote the music in San Sebastian in '83 whilst waiting for Dan to turn up on our of their European jaunts. The title, from a sci-fi dream of Julian's, came before the lyric. It was our second single on OLI, and almost got played on Radio 1. Recorded in London at Berry St. Studios."
