West London's cult alt-indie four piece Tellison return with their sophomore album The Wages Of Fear. A bible of bruises, literary split lips and the kind of shiver-inducing depth of feeling you haven't experienced since you first heard Bruce Springsteen. Tellison fly the flag for British bands with a fierce unashamed intelligence and the kind of teeth-bared, old-fashioned fight that ‘real' bands seem to lack these days. More >>
