While browsing this site I came upon Tera Melos, a band who had been described as caP'n Jazz meets Black Flag with a near dangerous live show. My interest peaked; I decided to pick up their untitled debut from Springman Records. While their sound leans more towards the former, they more than overshadow many current punk bands in pure intensity. Most instrumental music by nature is at least a little experimental mostly due to necessity (few people want to listen to a 3-minute radio rock song with no vocals); Tera Melos take this to a higher degree delivering over an hour of dynamic indie punk. All this comes in 8 tracks, each simply dubbed melody ("Melody 1," "Melody 2," etc.) and almost half the length coming from a single track.

you have to see this band live to really appreciate what they got going on! i know alot of people say that about bands but this is forsure! just mindblowing! holy shit I probably worded my original comment badly, but I didn't really take offense. I obviously really liked the album and though I did say something later I stll say that I obviously could have missed something and that I resect your right to differ on this. tera melos guy: hello. Anchors is totally right on this one. someone needs to put reviews of the Fest up Hahaha I was actually going to say to Will, "I'll only agree if the ring ropes are razor wire." BTW Anchors, What's sad is that you probably weren't being facetious. Uh oh, typo alert!!! hmm, two things: pretty sure i wasn't bickering about nothing, and not too sure that you had replied with a sentence ya fookin cunt Well maybe you bicker about NOTHING some more. leave it to crooked to repeat jokes completely after the fact!! p.s. (i'm the guy below hence the p.s.) can someone send me this uh, i just wanted to say, the artwork for this cd is pretty sweet. one of the better this year. Hey, can someone send me this? You two should come backyard wrestle at my house. I'll supply the ring, the chairs, the light bulbs and the cheese grater. man oh man You're so right dude, I still have no friends. Nobody could possibly have time for writing reviews, posting on this website, AND have friends. That's ridiculous! ohhh don't fucking preach to me you dumb fucking asshole I don't know what the fuck your screen name is, and I don't care to. If you're referring to the 311 jab, you wrote a review for them, you dumb asshole, so it was a pretty easy connection to make. anchors why do you love me so much as to obsessively look at my aim profile, don't you think that's kinda weird? I wasn't angry or any thing I just thought it was funny actually, and yea who knows mabye i missed something, this was just my opinion. A band has every right to say you didn't get it... Chances are they made music with a purpose, therefor there was something to understand. Ha, I apparently don't 'understand' melody 8 -www.teramelosmusic.com Yeah, fuck supporting bands. Right on dude! Ready for the 311 concert! also, probably because i just don't want to, so suck onnnnnn that lol peanut gallery How about you buy a damn album, rather than begging for everyone to send you something? i agree, this band is awesome Still bummed I missed their show here in the South Bay...Blah. This band is awesome. Excellent CD. Too short of an album... that's about it. This band is awesome and have the best website ever that album covers kinda cool |
