Ten Kens: Namesake special edition (5/21/13)
Toronto’s Ten Kens has occupied artsy post- and alt-rock since 2006, fluctuating between airy moodiness and post-punk aggression. Now, with a slightly heavier bent and a skew towards dark psychedelia, the band is giving a special, international release to Namesake, its 2012 album, with four bonus tracks.
One of the original cuts, “Gently Used,” has a beautiful and brand-new video that you can watch below. Get lost in the wavy, hypnotic, vaguely sexual and abstract visuals, and don’t forget to bang your head when the distortion kicks in.
