After four EPs of skeletal kraut-punk and slimmed down post-motorik alienage Milans Tv Dust are back with an entirely different beast, their proper debut Transition, an incredible collection of no-jazz, breakneck rhythms, mutant-wave, trance-funk, shredded sax jags and furious, yet mysterious assaults.

Tv Dust run a tight ship, they jam econo, with the album strongly based around the incredible interplay of drums (Sergio Tringali), bass (Filippo Aloisi) and sax/synth (newest member Gaetano Pappalardo). Shedding the use of vocals has completely freed the band up into a mutating beast, wild horses racing beside a volcano eruption, improv bursts that perfectly soundtrack the ruins of a city facing the inhuman consequences of wild expansion and dumb economics.

Transition is a no-jazz, no-panic, no-border album, born between a small bar and a basement, reworking some ideas from the first Tv Dust sessions with a new mindset, with improvisation becoming an important tool in the trio’s new path that already sees releases on Occult Punk Gang, My Own Private Records, Sentiero Futuro and Maple Death.

Transition like the transformation of the group, you still get the original package of furious hypnotic grooves, shortwave radio alien funk, devo-id convulsions, jittery no-wave and Italo post-punk tradition alongside dada-jazz and freeform freakouts.

Transition is our natural condition. No one is excluded.

Transition is out on LP and digital via Maple Death Records. Recorded and mixed by Byron at M24 in Milano. Mastered by Ivan Pjevcecic. Artwork by Andrea De Franco. Performed by Tano (sax, keys), Byron (drums, percussion), Tex (bass), Fillo (bass).
