Telescope Mind

Historical Arc: A few releases on US indie Troubleman Unltd., genre defying tours behind !!!, Stockhausen, Eye, and Deerhoof, a Pitchfork pick as one of the 5 artists to watch, and a personnel move (the bassist leave to join D. Banhart's band permanently, drummer Alexis moved to bass & Damo Suzuki/Daevid Allen drummer Warren moved in) actually making the band stronger. Now: Tussle move from the overt nod to Jamaican dub on their earlier releases to a more experimental and yet more pop approach on this new album. Dance jams meld w/Cluster-like ambience, Tropicalia-esque experimentation and even Bollywood rhythms. Also joined by legendary NYC duo Liquid Liquid on one track.
