Electric Jellyfish: blues-punk from Melbourne
Melbourne Australia's Electric Jellyfish are an incredible psych-punk band, who harness the power of experimental minimalism with anthemic blues-rawk energy. Their music is released in Australia on their own Spectacular Commodity label (named after a piece by minimalist composer Glenn Branca). Other labels around the world are starting to take notice as well --Thurston Moore and Byron Coley's Ecstatic Yod imprint released a limited cassette run of The Woods EP back in 2008, and Connecticut-based upstart Twin Lakes Records picked up their latest EP.
"Imagine of Power, Poolside" and "Hellhound" are two tracks off the 2010 EP, which is now available on 12'' vinyl as well as digital, available here.
Check out the Twin Lakes Records label page for more sounds from the label's artists Myty Konkeror and Closely Watched Trains. And keep an eye out for the next time Electric Jellyfish come to your town -- they tour frequently and their live shows are not to be missed! No tour dates on the EJ myspace at the moment, but looks like there's also a new split EP with Pony Bones.
