'tentacles', the hotly anticipated debut album from crystal antlers, is released via the stalwart indie label touch and go records, home to cocorosie, ted leo, the jesus lizard, and many others. recorded and mixed on 2" tape at san francisco's closer studios in the span of one sleepless week, 'tentacles' is a document of the antlers' vigorous work ethic and breathless vitality. as hinted at on last year's ep, many of the tracks here touch on the fragility of nature and its destruction by humankind, all under a cloudburst of epic sound and energy. for fans of les savy fav, any number of psych-rock classics from decades past, mc5, the stooges and blue cheer.....release date: 06/04/2009

Crystal Antlers - Tentacles

Review by Andrzej Lukowski

13 entertaining jolts of acid-washed garage rock; for sure it’s fun, but where the heavier, weirder EP spoke of ruptured adrenaline glands, weeks without sleep, and more cracked ambition than a Clinton family get-together, Tentacles is content to infer Crystal Antlers are well-acquainted with Lenny Kaye’s Nuggets compilation and kind of leave it at that.»
