5.0 out of 5 stars would burn anything if only my KOSP would be left untouched, March 9, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Bridges Worth Burning (Audio CD)

Having first heard Kind of Like Spitting 6 months ago, I am still blown away by the musical genius that is the man behind KOSP; Ben Barnett. Bridges Worth Burning is an amazing album and obviously kosp's most solidly structured full length to date. First heard this album at a party, where as it seemed to be, the clever thing to simply name drop unique and interesting bands. After dropping my few and (pinback, related) I confidently subsided any attempts of actually indulging myself in any of my peers choices. That is until a friend maniacally forced me to listen. Thankfully his taste easily transcends mine, and as they say the rest is history. Kind of Like Spitting is an amazing band that deserves all the recognition in the world. Thankfully that will not happen. My advice to you is check it out, and feel wonderful knowing that you are one of the few who's ears have come across such musical mastery. Ben Barnett is a musical genius. For fans of Death Cab For Cutie, Bright Eyes, Modest Mouse, and Ugly Casanova. Fans of Elliott Smith and Tom Waits might want to try his older stuff. Recommend 'Nothing Makes Sense Without It'.

5.0 out of 5 stars brilliant, April 20, 2005

really the only way to describe this album is brilliance. i admit, when i first heard this album i was only used to the old acoustic simple stuff, which i loved (i somehow missed that this album had been released until 2 years after its release), i had those common "sell-out" thoughts, but after listening to it over and over again, i realized how brilliant and amazing this album is. the music itself is great, and the lyrics, as always are brilliant, honest and of course really brilliant. all of KOLS's lyrics are honest, which is really a refreshing change from really almost any music.

4.0 out of 5 stars more than kind of like it, August 23, 2002

i bought this album after it was recommended to me by a record store owner. i had never heard of them before. the cd is excellent, kind of a Cursive meets Harvey Danger type sound. the only fault is that it gets a little slow towards the last few tracks. i recommend it to anyone and everyone.
