"Eerie, unearthly melodies promise to haunt your dreams." - CMJ '08

"...The Art Of Shooting have changed drastically since the last time I saw them play. In fact, most of the band is different (not a new occurrence with them over the past few years) though as I've repeated more than a few times since this show, I think they've finally found the right combination. As the essence of TAOS, Kelly has always been great at doing abrasive post-punk and explosive noise, but with this lineup she seems to have more freedom to soften the blow a bit and take the band's sound in newer directions. While I'm always a fan of a full-on assault on the earholes, it's nice to see a band explore what they can do. It's been a long time coming, but it sure looks like The Art Of Shooting are finally in a position to teach us all a lesson." -subinev.com

We were first introduced to Brooklyn based The Art of Shooting in late 2004 when we received a demo CD. We fell in love with their first effort the moment we pressed play. The thrill and attraction came flooding back the day we heard their new EP, Tyrant's Black Eyes.
The music can be described as artful post-punk or haute couture indie-rock, but it sounds like nothing else youve heard before. It might even have a life all its own... The mysterious origins of the songwriting come from the overactive pelvis, and a love of the ugly. Tyrants Black Eyes is rife with a sort of dark eagerness and bold sensuality. Forceful yet dissonant melodies cross in and out . The vocal interactions between Kelly and Amy are perilously infectious...Lost in Boredom makes our list as one of the best songs of 2005 and The Art of Shooting are a band not to be missed.

well-played, TAOS. well-played. I just realized last night, looking at the band's initials on Jim's kick drum, that if you add a C right in the middle, you'd be promoting a yummy Mexican dish. Somehow, all is now right in the world.
