Kong - What It Seems Is What You Get (2009)














Found this little gem at my local music store, thought I'd share it here.. A little history: Kong is a progressive/ experimental group from Amsterdam, formed in 1988 by guitarist/synth programmer Dirk de Vries, guitarist Aldo Sprenger, bassist/synth programmer Mark Drillich, and drummer Rob Smits. They play a fully instrumental & distinctive mix of genres, from electronic-industrial to more heavy riff oriented rock.

From wikipedia: 'The band is perhaps most notable for the quadrophonic approach to their shows: live performances are played in a quadraphonical live set-up, an idea that came from one of Kong’s very first gigs. On the opening-night of an art exhibition in a squatted Amsterdam bathhouse there was too little space for the band to play together, so each band member took his/her own independent stage and P.A.-stack by his/her side to one corner of the club. It proved an interesting set-up for the band and created a strange experience for the audience.'

This is their latest work 'What It Seems Is What You Get', a reunion album. Check out myspace.com/kongnl for more info & older albums on iTunes.
