Dowsing Anemone with Copper Tongue
Dowsing Anemone with Copper Tongue is the second full-length album by Kayo Dot, released on Robotic Empire Records in 2006. The album is considerably heavier than Choirs of the Eye, and received high praise from Pitchfork, Lambgoat and Sputnikmusic. It was voted the #2 album of 2006 by SputnikMusic.[4]
Shortly before the recording of the album, longtime collaborator and former maudlin of the Well member Sam Gutterman left to pursue outside projects, and was replaced by Tom Malone. It was the group's first and only release on Robotic Empire. The group embarked on a lengthy and highly successful tour after the album's release, and would be the last tour in which the band was mostly made up of formerly motW members, as Greg Massi left shortly after the tour to pursue solo projects, eventually forming the band Baliset. Ryan McGuire and Forbes Graham also left after the tour.
