Originally recorded over two sessions back in 2013 – one over a harsh Berlin winter in the Brian Jonestown Massacre studio with Fabien Leseure, and a second back in Leeds with early Telescopes producer Richard Formby – it’s a lost treasure that nearly never was. Succumbing to a hard-drive crash nearly a decade ago, the sessions were presumed lost and soon forgotten, until now. Miraculously rescued from the digital ether and finished by founding member Stephen Lawrie in his own studio over the pandemic, the album is now finally set for release in February 2024 via Fuzz Club and reveals another side to where The Telescopes were at in 2013. Where their physical output at the time mostly consisted of experimental noise improvisations, so far removed from any obvious structure, ‘Growing Eyes Becoming String’ shows how The Telescopes – Lawrie backed by London experimental unit One Unique Signal – were actually creating more song-based music in a parallel existence. Across its seven tracks are all the trademarks of quality that longtime fans associate with The Telescopes’ music. Solid songs, melody, harmony, noise, dissonance, improvisation, experimentation and an all-embracing journey beyond the realm of natural vision. “The objective with both sessions was to go in blind and be entirely in the moment”, Lawrie recalls: “There were no preconceived ideas, everything was written as it went along. Much like our drive to Berlin, through an intense blizzard with almost zero visibility, we were relying on the heightened instinct of being entirely in the now.” The result is another masterfully hypnotic set that matches its more melodic spaced-out moments against heavy drone-rock blow-outs: “Loaded with guitars, noise and melody, swirling around pounding repetition, this is a more vocal document of where The Telescopes head was at during that time.” Artist Telescopes, The Genre Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label Fuzz Club Buying Options 180g 1LP Coloured Vinyl Includes Download Code Format 180g , 1LP , Coloured Vinyl , Includes Download Code Condition New Country UK Track Listings Vanishing Lines (In The) Hidden Fields Dead Head Lights We Carry Along Get Out Of Me What You Love There Is No Shore Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Telescopes, The and more from Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo View Product Quick View Telescopes, The Songs Of Love And Revolution Rock And Pop | Tapete | 1LP Released 5th February 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Telescopes, The Songs Of Love And Revolution £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Tapete SKU: TR480LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 5th February 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Telescopes, The Exploding Head Syndrome Rock And Pop | Tapete | 1LP Released 1st February 2019 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Telescopes, The Exploding Head Syndrome £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Tapete SKU: TR409LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 1st February 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Tigers Jaw Two Worlds Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Run For Cover Records | 1LP Released 22nd November 2010 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Tigers Jaw Two Worlds £18.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Run For Cover Records SKU: RFC030LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 22nd November 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Flat Worms Witness Marks Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | God? | 1LP Released 22nd September 2023 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Flat Worms Witness Marks £22.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: God?
