 | CALLA Televise Label : Quatermass Year : 2002 Format : LP Style : Rock Availability : Out of stock | |
| Description : | Televise is Calla's third album of strange, noise-infected indie pop. Static-filled drones hover and pulse and function in the way a rhythm section would in a traditional rock outfit. The band builds itself carefully around the electronics contributed by bassist/keyboardist Sean Donovan and drummer Wayne Magruder. Guitarist/vocalist Aurelio Valle's melodies don't stand out, particularly, except for their framing -- and that alone is enough to make them function differently from most of Calla's contemporaries. Even forays into more traditional songwriting, such as 'As Quick as It Comes/Carrera,' are successful, revealing a tender, Yo La Tengo-like sound from the group -- albeit equally informed by the ambient side, as demonstrated by the subtly stereo-panned drums on the same track. Televise is an impressive and adventurous -- if occasionally mopey -- collection of songs. ~ Jesse Jarnow Recorded at Gigantic, New York, New York. Calla: Aurelio Valle (vocals, guitar); Sean Donovan (keyboards, bass, programming); Wayne B. Magruder (drums, percussion, programming). Rolling Stone (2/6/03, p.62) - 3 stars out of 5 - '...TELEVISE is a seductive piece of work and a solid step forward for Calla's songcraft...' | |
