Kimosabe (album)

Kimosabe is the debut studio album by Everything Everything, released on 30 June 2007. It was initially available as a digital download only. The album is known for its experimental and eclectic sound, blending elements of art rock, electronica, and alternative pop. It features complex arrangements, unconventional song structures, and frontman Jonathan Higgs' distinctive falsetto vocals.

The album's tracks often explore themes of paranoia, social commentary, and technological anxieties. Critics praised Kimosabe for its originality and ambition, though some noted its challenging and sometimes inaccessible nature. It established Everything Everything as a band willing to push boundaries and experiment with their sound.

While not a major commercial success upon its initial release, Kimosabe is considered a foundational work in Everything Everything's discography, foreshadowing the band's later critically acclaimed and commercially successful albums. It remains a cult favorite among fans and is frequently cited as an example of the band's early, more experimental work.
