Tera Melos
Patagonian Rats
Sargent House
ADDS 8/31/10
Have Tera Melos gone pop? Well, no....but yes. Much like the band's intricate and complex song structures, it's not quite that simple. Patagonian Rats is packed with melodic hooks and jabs that on paper might seem to defy the band's experimental edge. There's even clear and distinct vocals throughout - a first for the band, where vocals, if any were previously awash with distortion and layered in the mix. But, particulars aside, Patagonian Rats is the type of album that sticks with you.
"Akin to the type of freak-pop perversion dished out by daring pioneers like Devo and The Flaming Lips." - Wired
"Tera Melos has turned its experimental denseness into melodic infection on its upcoming album, Patagonian Rats, due September 7 via Sargent House. First single “Frozen Zoo” is packed with contagious vocals, rhythms and beats that are too audaciously complex to be pop and too systematic for the band’s label of “noise rock.” Tera Melos has unleashed layers of new expectations for itself with Patagonian Rats while completely creating something new for fans." - Magnet
