Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Kindo, formerly known as The Reign of Kindo, is an alternative/jazz/progressive rock band based in Buffalo, New York.The band started out as four out of five former members of the indie band This Day & Age, after its vocalist Jeff Martin left in 2007. Joseph Secchiarolli, who originally played bass, took over as vocalist, and they recruited Jeffrey Jarvis to round out their lineup on bass. After their second album This is What Happens was released in 2010, pianist Kelly Sciandra left the band and was replaced by Danny Pizarro Jr., who first featured in the band's live studio performances of some of the aforementioned album's songs. After the release of their third album Play With Fire, guitarist Mike Carroll was replaced by John Baab as they toured to support the album. Later, percussionist Geraldo Castillo, who had collaborated with the band on several live videos, became an official member as well. After the release of their fourth full-length album Happy However After, however, the band's lineup changed significantly, now leaving Secchiarolli and Jarvis as the only remaining original members.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })They have several live studio performance videos uploaded on YouTube, which can be viewed here.

comment
New Sound Album: Happy However After is the first album with John Baab, a blues guitar player. Accordingly, some of the songs incorporate more distorted rock riffs. Aside from that, there are also a lot more percussions and electronics throughout the album.

Uncommon Time
 The Reign of Kindo (Music) / int_38da8916
comment
Uncommon Time: "Thrill of the Fall" is set in the highly uncommon time signature of 7/8 (though there is one 4/4 measure in the bridge, when Joe sings "I keep knocking at the door"). It's incredibly difficult to follow the rhythm on the first listen. "The Hero, The Saint, The Tyrant & The Terrorist" uses 5/4 (like the Mission: Impossible theme). The instrumental refrain of "Sing When No One's Around" is a mildly complex 11/8 (6/8 + 5/8). "Feeling in the Night" plays fast and loose with this trope. It starts out with a relatively consistent 5/4 timing, but it only gets more confusing starting from the end of the first chorus, which introduces 7/4 measures in the mix. "Let Me Be" is in 12/4.

Word Salad Name: According to Joe, the band got their name from a bunch of nonsensical phrases Mike Carroll made up. A decade later, they officially decided to just go by "Kindo" instead.

And I Must Scream: The singer in "Nightingale" is a man left paralyzed and unable to speak after a car accident, who's lamenting not only that he can't tell his girl how much he misses her, but also the fact that she left him for another man.

comment
Take That!: "I Hate Music" castigates the shallowness of modern radio music and meaningless "talent shows" on TV, and rants on how the quality of music in recent times seems to have gone down the drain. Note that prior to this album, none of the band's songs ever included a swear word before this song, in which the word "shit" is sung twice.

Love Nostalgia Song: "Nice to Meet You" is about a solitary man who screwed up his one chance to escape his loneliness. "Nightingale" is this trope combined with And I Must Scream. "Return to Me" counts as well.

Album Title Drop: The album title This is What Happens is taken from one of the lines in "Comfort in the Orchestration", while Play With Fire comes from the very last lyric of the album, from the song "The Man, the Wood & the Stone."

Lyrical Dissonance: "Breathe Again" is about a man who chases down and brutally murders a thief who broke in and robbed his house on Christmas Eve. "Nightingale", as indicated above in And I Must Scream, is about a paralyzed and heartbroken man. The former is set to a mellow jazz melody, while the latter is a more fast-paced song with a peculiar rhythm.
