As Approved by the Committee

The Committee is delighted to announce an affiliation with one of the greatest-ever British bands: THE TELESCOPES. As Approved by the Committee is a compilation of this prolific group's best work, now all out of print (and all of it previously unreleased in the USA), which originally appeared, with frequent chart success, on labels like Creation and What Goes On in the early '90s. Part of the British shoegazing movement given impetus by the JESUS AND MARY CHAIN and spearheaded by MY BLOODY VALENTINE, the TELESCOPES' sound borrowed from those two bands while adding their own garage punk flavor, experimenting with violins, trumpets, and dynamic contrasts.
