Telekinetic Walrus & the Pride of the Ions


This is a band I like to see. Recommended from a friend, Telekinetic Walrus and the Pride of the Ions is an absurd band with an electronic backbone and quick lyrics. They have an EP available here: http://www.zshare.net/download/66206850b662e8d6/ . It's the same three songs you can find on their myspace.

The first song, Monocle, is a wild repetition of electronic thumps that grow continually louder and more frantic. It's like a strange dream. The dream like quality could be described as transe-esque in a way. It all builds around the lead singers just as frantic lyrics. It's electronic, fairly experimental, and all good. Plus a name you cannot beat.

The other two songs are both worth listening too. There's a pop hint in all three of them but it's all covered over with the same lyrical delivery and varying electronic beep-boops.
