Tonstartssbandht share title track from upcoming album Sorcerer

Tonstartssbandht — SorcererFlorida / New York brothers Andy and Edwin White are the pair behind Tonstartssbanht, which is pronounced tahn-starts-bandit. Their 2011’s Now I Am Become is finally being followed up with a new full-length album entitled Sorcerer. Set for release on March 24th via Mexican Summer, the album sees them “chart a heavenly course above the storm and stress, one explored over years of touring and a poetic language forged between performers and siblings”, as the press release describes. Sorcerer comprises three expansive tracks, each one “form[ing] depictions of Tonstartssbandht’s boundless spirit; ambitious noise rock narratives buoyed in a swampy sonic scene of delay, distortion, and virtuosic interplay”.

Clocking in at nearly 10 minutes and navigating the realms of many genres, from psychedelia, low-fi pop to rock and blues, the album’s epic title track, which is also the shortest of the three, is being offered as the first single. Take a listen below.
