Big D and the Kids Table new CD/Songs

[Zack]

Well Big D has a new CD coming out July 7th called "Fluent in Stroll"

"The band calls the style of their sixth full-length record "stroll" – a mix of hopscotch, double dutch, soul, ska, and reggae. They also feel its most like their first record "Shot By Lammi". Produced by Joe Gittleman (The Mighty Mighty Bosstones). Mixed by Paul Q Kolderie (Radiohead, Dinosaur Jr., Uncle Tupelo)." - From Interpunk

Well, I've given a listen to the songs they have posted on MySpace beginning with Doped up Dollies and Fluent in Stroll as they were posted first. My first reaction was oh no, what are they doing? i was hoping big d would go back to their punkier sound and return to the big d i fell in love with, even though strictly rude was an amazing cd and got many plays. Now they posted a third song called Describing the Sky and i'm liking this song a lot more than the other two and reminds me of strictly rude some.

Anyway, can't wait for the CD to come out. I'm for sure picking it up and giving it a few spins before creating my final judgment.

If you haven't checked out the songs, i recommend heading over to their MySpace and giving them a listen!

it's disappointing to me that you didn't like it because i thought the album was amazing and i'm a huuuuge fan of gypsy hill, how it goes, and good luck. now i'll have to admit i was hoping for an album similar to those cds but i like the direction they are taking. i couldn't stop listening to this cd, the style was just so different from anyone else.

but, to each their own i guess.

i like it... its different, but i found it to be a fun album.

Personally i feel like they took a step backwards with this Cd. it wasnt bad but their older ones were much better
