The Legendary Pink Dots

The unique sound that is The Legendary Pink Dots is essential listening to gain an understanding of out of the box creativity. Their astounding material continues to evolve, as the band take on new technologies and blend the sound with a plethora of more traditional instruments. The tracks wend their path of sublime experimentation, always refreshing and regularly rewritten.

Rather than try to keep up to date with their never ending tours and releases, I will keep the indie bands blog readers up to date on an occasional basis.

The current ’30th Anniversary Tour’ takes in venues throughout much of the world, so there is little reason to not catch them live.

The most August 2009 album The Maria Dimension Legendary Pink Dots - The Maria Dimension is a good place to start with the material.
