"This is a hot new release from a band which is taking a different approach to their music than many Canadian bands these days. These guys are definitely worth a listen." -- CALVIN DANIELS

We took a quick spin through our own back pages to see which local releases we like best in 2007.
TELE - Self-titled
Some worried they wouldn't be able to replicate the epic majesty of their live shows, but on their much anticipated debut, alt-rockers Tele come pretty damn close, matching Matt Worobec's soaring vocals with a keyboard-heavy vibe that cribs the best of Coldplay, The Killers and Radiohead. by David Schmeichel

Album: TELE
(Independent)
GRADE A-
Other than The Weakerthans' Reunion Tour, Tele's self-titled debut may have been the most anticipated local release of 2007. Scenesters have salivated over the band's epic live sound, so the electro-rock quartet faced a bit of a challenge when it came to laying that same electric noise on record. But Tele has risen to that challenge and the result is an album that packs the same punch as the live incarnation of the group - well, almost. Frontman Matt Worobec's yearning, ethereal vocals and the band's ever-thunderous fusion of keyboards and guitars are captured well here - but they don't quite reach the same intensity as onstage. Still, this isn't supposed to listen like a live record - occasional keyboard quirks and subtle strings give this album an extra dimension, accenting the record's beautifully melancholy undertone. -Jen Zoratti

We've also been writing and recording some brand new tracks for the summer. Keep your ears out for some new songs at our live shows!

Thanks for you time,
Derek, Brendan, Matt and Zack
