Tartar Lamb is the duo of Toby Driver and Mia Matsumiya (of avant-garde rock group Kayo Dot), put together specifically to perform and record Toby’s long-form violin and electric guitar duet, “60 Metonymies,” and with the potential to move on to other pieces in the future. Tartar Lamb was augmented by the participation of Tim Byrnes (trumpet) and Andrew Greenwald (drums) of The Friendly Bears for the recording.

This self-released, full-length CD package features the title piece, a modern electroacoustic quartet exquisitely recorded by Randall Dunn (Sunn0))), Earth, Kinski, etc) and beautiful hand-painted artwork by Toby printed in a high-quality parchment insert and contained in a classy fiberboard jacket. Twenty-one months in the making and 100% self-financed, the artists went through great personal strife just to bring you this delicious CD. It is on sale for $12 plus shipping (see shipping costs below). If you’d like to buy a copy, please send payment to shirts@kayodot.net. Thank you!

Brilliant stuff. Far from Toby and Mia's best, but still better than 99% of what's out there.

K, so I am a HUGE maudlin of the Well fan and a Kayo Dot fan as well, but I thought this project was a total abortion. To my surprise, I did not like it one bit.

Couldn't hear the song on this site/page. I'd probably buy this if I could hear some of it first. I hate dial up but that's how I'm able to save to buy Cd's. Not knowing which ones I like enough to buy becomes a problem though :)

I haven't seen a bad review of it, that said I think I only read one. And the album is fantastic, but it requires both a very silent environment and the right mood, kind of an introspective and relaxing affair.

I have been reading a lot of bad reviews of Tartar Lamb and I have come to the conclusion that people don't know shit. This album is musically brilliant and highly ambitious.
