Tarentel biography, Tarentel discography
Tarentel is a band based in San Francisco, California which formed in 1995.Ledesma, Danny Grody, Jim Redd and Tony Cross.EPs, Tarentel has gradually shifted their style to a looser, more improvisational form that incorporates genres such as noise and drone as well as having a strong psychedelic element.This article on a United States alternative rock band is a stub.You can help by expanding it.This page was last modified on 23 January 2008, at 04:01.Tarentel's sense of place is both concrete and amorphous, suggesting landscapes that are simultaneously familiar and alien, solid and shifting, glacial and arid.Visitors to Tarentel's aural realm will be rewarded each time they listen to these tracks, as there is always some new sound to focus on, something new to discover.In addition, Epitonic is proud to present one of Tarentel's legendary live performances, recorded at San Francisco's Bottom of the Hill.Most notably, the group introduced the vocals of Wendy Allen (The Court and Spark, Boxharp) to their work.They also brought on a string section, brass instruments, a church organ, a laptop, and numerous field recordings."Popul Vuh," a tribute to the band of the same name, is an instrumental full of beauty and emotional intensity, demonstrating Tarentel's unique ability to change and improve with each release.Similar Artists:
