With every new release TARENTEL have offered spellbinding proof that they aren't just musicians, they are also magicians.

In the four years of their existence, the San Francisco group has released two studio albums, a live album, three EPs, four singles and a few compilation tracks.

they have toured the US twice and Europe once. They have also changed line-ups at least a half dozen times, spawned several other amazing bands (LUMEN, RUMAH SAKIT, HOWARD HELLO) and maintained an average song length of 15 minutes.

an ambitious bunch to say the least. Inspired by pioneers like PINK FLOYD and MY BLOODY VALENTINE, TARENTEL properly began in 1998.

Rabidly thirsty fro new sounds and influences, the band dug deeper and deeper into 20th century minimalist composers (Brian Eno, Steve Reich, Terry Riley) and avant rock legends (THIS HEAT, ZOVIET FRANCE).

Their sound transformed gracefully, shifting from twinkling guitar and sturdy rhythms to visceral walls of triumphant noise and orchestral textures.

Not since their stunning debut album "From Bone To Satellite" has there been a TARENTEL release that more accurately compliments their dynamic shifts and subtle nuances.

Even as a collection of singles, it plays like a flawless album. Like magic.
