    Barely knew of them when they were out first time around, did a bit of digging via Wikipedia into the My Bloody Valentine/Shoegazing genre and got into their stuff on YouTube

    Check them out if you haven't heard them, anybody else a fan?

    Their first two albums were awesome. They weren't a shoegaze band per se but they certainly had an influence.

    Hell yeah!

    I went down to Dublin from Belfast on complete impulse back in the day (autumn 91 I think it was) to see KOD - supported by Whipping Boy.

    I saw them again in Glasgow. Vastly underrated band, the Kitchens.

    The debut album, Love Is Hell remains my fave.

    Same here, although they could have cut one or two songs from it.

    This is breath-taking though:

    Brilliant band. Editors sound so like them.

    The main man lived in Galway at one point as far as I remember. Maybe he still does.

    Not the same Patrik

    I remember Kitchens Of Distinction playing here in 1989. Think it was in Trinity (Buttery). Love Is Hell just out. I didn't make it but did anyone go? First two LPs rock
