The Telescopes - Static Charge [CD]

Step beyond the realm of natural vision with Static Charge, the 19th studio album from boundary-pushing Alternative Rock pioneers, The Telescopes. Embraced across genres including noise, space rock, dream pop, and psychedelic, this release delivers a lean blitz of seditionary hits following a three-month tour of the UK and Europe. This album unites stone age beats, outsider sounds, and low end disturbance in resistance to the new weirdness of existence.

Album Lineup & Recording Details

The Telescopes experience is known for its ever-revolving lineup, but on Static Charge, the band operates as a tight four-piece.
