Tubelord.
A fetish for screenprinted wares, cryptic lyrics and obsessions with fifth dimensional time travel helps garner sense of their erratic sensibilities.
Original members Joseph Prendergast (guitar/vocals) and David Catmur (drums/vocals) being joined by Tom Coulson Smith (bass) and James Elliot Field (keys), Tubelord are reincarnate. Beginning 2011 with a mammoth 40-date headline tour of Europe, developing on from a Glastonbury 2010 slot, touring alongside And So I Watch You From Afar and Oceansize, a devonshire cabin is where they have chosen to record the follow up to debut ‘Our First American Friends’ (Hassle/Vagrant) and the subsequent EP ‘Tezcatlipoca’. The band have left their roots of London for Bristol, their reasoning, according to drummer David Catmur, being “”there’s a better internet connection here”, “and if the theme we’re tackling is the internet, we’d best nest up here” adds ivory-banger James.
For now, Tubelord are broken projectors, patiently awaiting someone to plug them in to a power supply (preferably with wi-fi to stream their imaginations into your screens) and a helping hand to focus their lens. In the meantime, the new video for ‘Bazel’ will have to do.
Release date and tours to follow.

I don't understand how feed me a box of words isn't in the top tracks [2] It's probably because it's on an EP rather than an album so it's less well known to newcomers

What a different sound on the second album but my I like it too. Less original sound though, but draws you right in.

This guitarist/singer is getting lazier every album, he used to play some awesome guitar parts. Beside that, Romance is a very goood math-pop album :D

I was expecting so much more from the new album. I waited really long, since the first one. The EP made me think of some kind of a new genre they would have exploited, but then, there is nothing special about this new release. I'm not disappointed, because some tracks are really great, but it's far from what I thought it would be.
