New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Tamborines Official Website) - acked with amazingly crafted classic three minute songs, The Tamborines debut album 'Camera & Tremor' is released on Beat-Mo Records on August 2. It will be available as a limited-edition 12-inch vinyl, CD and download. Formed by the duo Henrique Laurindo (vocals/guitar) and Lulu Grave (keys/ vocals), The Tamborines take the DIY attitude to the extreme by building their own studio, recording and producing the album themselves and now releasing it on their own imprint. 'It has taken us some time to build it all, since everything had to be from scratch. Now there's really a piece of us in this record, and each song tells part of the Tamborines' story. We simply wouldn't be able to achieve this level of intimacy in a conventional studio.' says Henrique. Musically, it drops hints of the noir displayed by the Velvets, the fuzz of the Mary Chain and the lo-fi pop of Guided By Voices, all packed with a Sonic Youth-fuelled attitude. However, 'Camera & Tremor' shows that The Tamborines have developed a sound of their own which has been accurately described as 'a scalding blast of sculptured noise.' "Insanely catchy chorus + incredibly loud guitars = perfect pop music." NME "You see, what The Tamborines have mastered here could be summed up as the art of simple arithmetic; White Noise + Immobile Drone x Pop Sensibility = The Most Exciting Tune since heroin was considered so passe." Drowned In Sound "This is darkness the way Caravaggio paints it, not a lack of light but almost vibrant with the intensity of the pigment. This is the marker by which all shoegaze will be judged." SoundsXP TRACK 'CWB' WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR LIMITED FREE DOWNLOAD ON JULY 13.
