简介：
maudlin of the Well (commonly abbreviated as motW) is an avant-garde metal band from Boston, Massachusetts. Their music contains elements from many different genres including doom metal, indie rock, jazz, progressive rock, post rock, progressive metal and death metal. After a five year hiatus, the band has recently re-united to record their latest album, Part the Second, which was funded by fan donations and released online May 14, 2009 for free.\nBiography\nmaudlin of the Well released three full-length albums before disbanding in 2003. These albums included 1999's My Fruit PsychoBells...A Seed Combustible and 2001's Bath and Leaving Your Body Map. These last two albums were considered companion albums. The band had a consistent core membership, which consisted of Jason Byron, Greg Massi, and Toby Driver. Throughout its career a sort of "revolving door" of members and session musicians participated as needed.\nmaudlin's music, lyrics, and atmosphere dealt predominantly with the subject of astral projection. The band tried to find music rather than compose it. This was done through practicing astral projection and lucid dreams, from which the band were purportedly able to "bring back" pre-existing music from the astral plane (as stated by Toby Driver in the liner notes included with the reissued Bath and Leaving Your Body Map).\nIn late 2001, the band began working on a fourth studio album. During this time, the band lost several longtime members, changed labels, and ultimately renamed themselves to Kayo Dot. This fourth album was later released in 2003 as Kayo Dot's Choirs of the Eye.\nAll three of their albums are now out of print, although Dark Symphonies re-issued Bath and Leaving Your Body Map in 2006 and My Fruit PsychoBells...A Seed Combustible in 2008, all with bonus tracks consisting of early demos.\nIn 2008, webcomic Questionable Content featured a character wearing a MOTW t-shirt in two strips (1051 and 1052). Additionally, Toby announced that there is a possibility of new material[citation needed] including an extended version of Blue Ghost\u002FShedding Qliphoth with vocals and strings. Any new material would be released to the public for free, and thus would be funded by public donations. Even with new material, the band is considered done as an entity.\nIn a blog post on the bands MySpace page on July 27, 2008, Driver revealed that a fan donated enough money to record a new album. Recording started on February 10, 2009, and the album, titled Part the Second was finally released in May of 2009. It is available for free download in various file formats (MP3, FLAC and WAV) on motW's website, torrent networks, or alternately, it can be streamed directly from the site. An amalgam of many different musical styles, the new songs share an ethereal quality with previous motW recordings, but are distinctly more mellow than the group's prior releases.
