ETM released their first album, Blew it Again, in June 2010. Eschewing the trappings of lo-fi production, The Tickles spent 14 days crafting a Hi-Fi exploration of the rock and roll canon. Taking musical cues from the mutated history of American psychedelic, punk, and garage rock, the resulting album, Blew It Again, boasts post-Warholian, sincerity over an infectious wave of analog synthesizers, dirty guitar jangle and rhythmic thump. Wrapped in an explicit album cover sure to elicit a reaction, these sing-along songs about existential lust, material obsession, and love caught in the throes of Western medicine are as unapologetic as they are catchy. | |
