Disco Dust

Solid musicianship, superior production value! I'm forced into a corner trying to make comparisons. Because of the ultra-clean production style my hand is a bit forced to compare them to many 80's bands such as maybe a more mellow Oingo Boingo? (truly vibrant Elfman like bridge in "Let It Go") Maybe like a Madness without an overbearing horn section? "Fate of the World's" silky yet solid chorus could have easily been composed by Brandon Flowers of The Killers -- that is to say from Hot Fuss, their only good album. And the lovely piano harmony in "It Won't Stop" calls back to Neil Finn or Crowded House at their most eclectic moments. All the songs do come off as a bit held back, a little restrained, but that's clearly the style Kahlil is shooting for...a kind of Xanaxy, whimsical enthusiasm. I think. Whatever this is I really like it. "Disco Dust" is a bit misleading...this ain't Andy Gibb, thank God. Maybe track 8 comes off as uninspired, but that is the ONLY one. I'd like to hear this band get a LITTLE more unrestrained, but that is what live shows are for isn't it?! A little techno, a little funk, a little synth! Cheers, Biloxi Boys!!!!! A+

I heard the song on the radio. Hope you guys get a lot more air play! This album deserves to have more attention. :)

Wow! Kaboom really displays a one-of-a-kind sound on their debut offering, Disco Dust. The opening three tracks provide upbeat, dance oriented rhythms with plenty of energy. Let It Go is tailor made for DJs everywhere. Then, on track four, the tempo changes and gives way to smooth, soulful vocals and even saxophones. Each track beyond this has a distinct feel and vibe all it's own. The One or Thing That Made you reminds me of Brian Wilson or even the Beatles. It definitely belongs on mainstream radio! Fate of the World and Yours are both powerful, unique songs that feature great vocal harmonies. Sing! has an infectious rhythm and ends with a nice percussion solo. The album closes with Creatures in the Dark which sounds like a beautiful nightmare and features bells and even an upright bass. Overall, this album is a powerful artistic statement from a band that I can't wait to hear more from.

Great album from a very talented bunch of guys..you won't regret this purchase!

Totally enjoying the full album Disco Dust by Kaboom. It's no wonder these guys have packed shows and screaming (supportive) fans and have held top ratings multiple years in a row in world wide competitions. I listened to all the previews before I downloaded the full album and there is so much to be missed without the full songs. This entire album is Genius! If money is tight, skip the coffee for a few days (the headache will be worth it). Kaboom won't disappoint. These guys are starting to be a very big deal... and rightfully so.
