  • Elektro Guzzi build their Observatory image
  • Macro will release the latest full-length from Elektro Guzzi next month. The Austrian group have the machine-like sound of so much techno, but they arrive at it through the instrumentation of a rock band: guitar, bass and drum kit. Perhaps best known for their blistering live shows, they've released quite a lot of music over the last handful of years, mostly for Macro. Observatory, their third Macro studio album, finds the band inching ever closer to the drum machines and synths that inspire them; as the press release notes, the band have decided to forego instrument credits on the sleeve. You can listen to one of the album's tracks, "Atlas," below:
    Tracklist 01. Rough Tide 02. Acid Camouflage 03. Alaska Flip 04. Trojan Robot 05. Undulata 06. Atlas 07. Threshold People 08. The Grist Macro Recordings will release Observatory on May 26th, 2014.
