SPA-005 (2011) - Kimono Draggin'
Kimono Gold (LP)
"10 of the group's craziest tracks yet...pressed on limited edition gold vinyl. Jumping from genre to genre without a care in the world, New Haven's trio have outdone themselves with this record. It's a frankenstein medley from beginning to end, orchestrated by mad scientist, Joe Nolan. Recorded and Produced by Matt Labozza (We are the Dudes) specifically for analog, this is how Kimono Draggin' was always meant to be heard!"

SPA-004 (2010)
Kimono Draggin'/Bobbie Peru split 7" (EP)
"…KD's "Frank Zappa/Mothers of Invention" influence is writ large with a comic sensibility as heightened and hyper as their arrangements' endless gear-shifting, plus constant surprises that compete with the shock-parody cover art. Whereas Manchester's Bobbie Peru's ode to anti-depressive/anxiety meds abuse plays a more streamlined, but equally oddball post-punk."
-- Big Takeover, Jack Rabid

  



SPA-003 (2009) - Kimono Draggin'
We are the Dudes (LP)
"Dudes has punchy production and tight playing. Although they're still wild 'n' crazy, they've toned down their experimental features, sometimes resembling a cross between Big Black/Shellac, The Didjits and Dead Milkmen. They have the chops to undertake any style that suits their fancy. Fans of avant-garde, off-kilter and just plain fun, devil-may-care rock should find this album to be a treat."
-- The Big Takeover, Mark Suppanz



SPA-002 (2006/2009) - Kimono Draggin'
Space Orphans (LP)
"It's so wonderfully odd, so beautifully un-mainstream. So not what most of your friends are pumped up about, dude. While the rest of humanity is figuring out a way to be the next band to sound like the 34th generation of watered down pablum that crimes Dave Matthews, Shinedown, Hatebreed, Sabbath, Rush, or who-the-fuck-ever, these cats plainly don't give a toss and are letting the shit just flow out of 'em."
-- Verbicide Magazine, Craig Gilbert



SPA-001 (2005) - Kimono Draggin'
My Summer in Paris with...(LP)
"Crazy genius pop rock. Picture the Dead Milkmen if they could play Zappa tunes as a soundtrack for an adult Japanese beach movie. This is so tweaked out--beautifully amusing, even with the pottymouth lyrics. Jagged, angular guitar noodling covers solid bass and beats, topped off with Dada lyrics. Catchy, intricate and out-there fun. Bow to them."
-- New Haven Advocate, Craig Gilbert

  



SPA-000 (2003) - Kimono Draggin'
The Essence of Dik Chin (EP)
"The very first recording of Kimono Draggin', recorded and engineered by Scott Amore on "reel to reel" tape (remember that?). These 5 original rock anthems were originally sold as a super limited demo EP. Now they are available to you in Triphonic Digital Sound. Feel the fatness and warmth of these great rocks songs...feel the Draggin'!"
