Televise - Outside Out - EP Review

Televise
Outside Out EP
Club AC30
Release Date: 23 May 2005

If you’re into distorted guitars, ethereal melodies and space-age choruses you will certainly like Outside Out – the debut EP from London’s 4-piece Televise. This is actually an up-and-coming band, but its singer and guitarist Simon Scott is someone not short of experience, having been a member of both Slowdive and Lowgold. Opening the EP is the title-track, a fast and psychedelic rock ballad, reminiscent of bands such as Spiritualized and early Feeder. ‘Let Me Go Down’ follows, developing slowly and gently, with an instrumental

intro over one minute long – continuing with delicate vocals and ending with a rock crescendo. Final track ‘If I Told You’ is another guitar-led ballad, bearing echoes of indie bands such as Ride and Swervedriver. If you want to feel melancholy and love at the same time, this is the right music to put into your CD player.
