The Telescopes - Strange Waves (Vinyl) FC117V12

The Telescopes have constantly evolved since putting out their first release (‘Forever Close Your Eyes’, a split flexi-disc with Loop) back in 1988. With an ever-changing cast of musicians to complement Lawrie’s ideas, The Telescopes have never had time to stand still or rest on their laurels.Instead, Lawrie and his band of cohorts have continuously strived to reinvent themselves with every passing record, making them an impossible band to categorise or compartmentalise into any specific genre. Reflecting on his thirty-year career, Stephen Lawrie offers the following manifesto: “The Telescopes are more a revolution of the psyche than the sidewalk. Question everything.”
