Telekinesis is a group led by Michael Benjamin Lerner young songwriter from Seattle, WA.
After releasing a debut album enjoyable Telenkinesis! in 2009, Michael returned this year with the difficult second album, entitled 12 Desperate Straight Lines at Merge.
Recorded in analog at a studio in Portland, again with the help of God production Chris Walla (Death Cab For Cutie) multi-instrumentalist BJ turned to a much more rock than its predecessor.
Always so rooted in tradition indie pop, this album still has a more sought after, with guitars very Smiths / Cure ( Please Ask For Help ) and a much lower present (50 Ways , Palm Of Your Hand ), so that sometimes it sounds very power-rock like Superchunk.
While all groups are turning to things in fashion that work (such as electro), BJ fate still a hard fact that we still love the simple and effective pop.
2 extracts: its mégatube Coast of Carolina (I even heard on tv in the series Vampire Diaries) and a song from his second album Please Ask For Help .
