Since 2007, Atlanta based cosmic rockers Telestrion have been delivering some of
the most mind altering music one will ever feast their ears upon. In an area
known primarily for either it’s Southern roots music or it’s screaming death punk
grind core, Telestrion is a band that happily resides somewhere in the
stratosphere looking down upon it all as if there is no real place for them aside
from the musical plane on which they reside.
The music of Telestrion is an assault on the senses with their brand of own brand
psychedelic acid fuzz rock. Think Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, and Hawkwind and
you'll be in the ballpark, however Telestrion have a sound that is uniquely their
own. Telestrion's performances meander back and forth between tightly
rehearsed songs and loose free form improvisational jams, depending on the
state of the players and the moment.
In April of 2018, Telestrion released their long awaited double album, Blazing in
the Sky. The album was produced by Telestrion and Jeff Tomei and features
legendary Spinal Tap/Atomic Rooster drummer Ric Parnell. Blazing in the Sky is a
15 song cosmic journey that covers all of the bases from the short and sweet
“Nothing Left” to the 15 minute epic “Midnight Never Ends.” Telestrion’s music is
definitely food for the mind and is something to not just be heard but to be
experienced as well.
